NO wtf makes you think that it's litteraly cut in half it's not even safe to use if you were to weld it together. get a new non cut up one.


if you call that an upgrade over the one you have now i'd hate to see what's on there now

Lol.. Trust bro is an upgrade car had a stock steering wheel cover took it off and was pure metal. So just got me this one for the mean time I have a mono steering wheel just need the hubs but am broke and this heat here in Cali is killing me with that freaking metal man. It's going to my garage wall so no worries.

That shouldnt even be a question! Even if you're broke, buy a $20 one off EBAY. Better than that one. Love the fact I could be on the road with you.....

No, don't buy a $20 one off eBay, buy a $15 steering wheel cover from autozone and use it on your stripped original wheel.

Find someone who'll send you a free OEM steering wheel... or for cheap. There's even a 'free stuff' section of the marketplace. Locally, I can find a steering wheel for $5. At the junkyard they are $10. Surely your "broke-***" can afford that.

Do it!!!

Really, don't tho.

Looks like your wheel came from a stolen car that had a club on it. Cut the wheel and the club comes right off. Toss it.

Then why ask if it could be repaired? You asked if it was worth fixing. You didn't say it was going to be used temporarily. Why bother to even post and ask then? Your posts con't line up.

Like I said and asked is it worth fixing?
Respose was: no. toss it. Is it a real question?, broke-*** and on and on.

Result: not using it, going to my wall.

Commentaries were made and I didnt needed to specify what I was gonna use it either for the long term or temporarily it was just a question.
