does anyone know of a place that can recover a steering wheel...in alcantara...in southern california?
thanks in advance.

 

AGLA will do it, but he is in Florida and do a search to learn all you need. Anyway, I am happy.

Having seen/discussed alcantara with others, be sure you see one that is a few years old....

it can look bad in a few years if you sweat at all. Most people do perspire a bit.

What several steering wheel people have told me over the years - but mostly all BMW...it may be a BMW thing.

who or what is ALGA?
and what happens in a few years?
does the leather look nasty and turn?

 

If you still looking for to recover your steering wheel, you might want to visit rennlist.com and search about steering wheel recover to see the folks there talked about AGLA.
Hope it helps.

I am very happy with my wheel.


Best of luck.

 

It looks ugly in my opinion. No offense to you but I can't understand you spent that much money to have your steering wheel recover with the stitching looks horrible. I don't recall any factory's stitching like that. I've seen those folks over rennlist have their steering wheels recovered look fantastic. I actually had a nightmare with AGLA myself.

 

It is a baseball pattern. It is the same stitch as on my factory wheel (wood, turbo oem option), just in a contrasting color. Up close the work is quite good. I know suturing.... It is tight, even, and the leather is taut with no pinching. Plastics kind of stuff if you catch my drift. I am not sure if the non-turbo wheels had the same stitch or the non-carbon/wood ones.

The camera's flash really makes the wheel look quite different...in daylight the blue matches the rugs and the yellow blends into the leather of the interior. I just don't have the ability to capture that on my camera.

Clearly if you are the ltd66 guy on ebay, you know steering wheels and covers.

Per the avatar you are in Dallas and have a post count of 2.


That Dallas site is quite nice. I actually used them for a steering wheel myself about 2 years ago.

Speed Gallery does it. Tip or 6 speed wheel, the wheels I have seen turned out nice.
