I dont think this needs a rewrap but you guys tell me what you think. on the left side you can see where its a bit worn. pretty good condition otherwise.

It looks good to me. Here is my brand new $425 one.


This is the only pic I have at the moment since my car has been in the shop for 3 weeks now

Damaged. Here is where the vinyl coating on mine was worn through exposing damaged leather.



There was also a vertical dent above the right thumb grip, but that was pretty easy to overlook. In any case, I still stand by my best mod comment. Even a damaged wheel is 100x better than stock. Once you have the perforated leather, stitching, and grips, the stock wheel looks so impotent.

I polished the leather on the wheel with some kiwi black polish last night and it looks good as new.

007 I have to agree with this statement

I installed the wheel this morning and the car should have come like this from the factory. I'll post some pictures when I get a chance
