Sorta unhappy with the steering wheel
While the leather has not worn out yet, I wish it were a bit more thicker.
Has anyone looked into adding an aftermarket leather wrap, or even replacing [if possible] the leather? Last thing I want is the wrap to look "obvious", if you know what I mean.

i'm happy with it...much better than my integra gsr where the leather mysteriously turned white so my bf ripped it off before we sold it lol, it was an option anyway so it looked normal underneath, much better than the white-ish fake leather.

Because, I don't know much about doing these kind of things, I won't do it... I'm afraid the airbag might get messed up or might not get deployed properly.

What do you mean by "uncomfortable for our larger car"? Our steering wheel is very sensitive, so I'm guessing that going with smaller diameter steering wheel would make a slight touch into a huge directional change right?
I agree that the diameter size is perfect, only wish it to be thicker and more padding imho.
