Re-Trim Companies for my steering wheel

[*JimmyJ*]

My Sh!tty ph1 172 steering wheel is really starting to get on my tits :dapprove:

Does anyone know of any companies which will re-trim my steering wheel back to normal or even better? I live in the West london area so anywhere near would be excellent.

Cheers guys.

theres a member on here called gibsonandboynetrimming, they are a pro retrimming company, never had any work done by them but form what i have read they are highly rated.

they were going to do a group buy with some other members, and have a pass around wheel to go from one member to the next whilst the wheels were done, not sure if this is going ahead or not, drop them a pm or do a quick search for it!

hope that helps?

gibson and boyne wanted 158 to do my wheel and send it back to me. i ended up getting a momo wheel as i didnt particularly like the 172 design as i thought it was too big.

giles (clio GB) may have a spare RSi full leather one that he might be pursuaded to sell lol

if you get the leather redone, dont you have to worry about the plastic bits splitting

What one did you get middo, does the airbag still work with it.

no airbag in the momo steering wheel mate.. ^
but it would still work if u got the renault steering wheel retrimmed... me thinks...

In this business you get what you pay for..

To re trim a wheel it takes a days labour as its all stripped back..leather cut to fit the wheel and then hand stitched..Hence the price so in some cases it may be cheaper to buy a new wheel..depends on what you are looking for..

As for airbags..you can see from the pics I can trim them and we use special airbag thread..
