Re: Where to wrap steering wheel?
IMHO, most of the SG people are asking for heaven and earth to wrap the steering man !! The last time I ask for my M-technie steering all asking for around 200-250 for it. Even small shops in Alexandra village. Guess the rental and labour is really expensive man.
Alternatively, I went to this shop over at JB who did a fairly good job....cost is only RM 150 (thereabout only). It helps if you got a spare steering wheel...cos it took them 3 days to do it. But workmanship is 7 outta 10 rating. But for that price...cannot complain lah. They do leather seats as well.
There is 2 way of doing....cheap way is to wrap just the rim of the steering wheel...that is cheap but IMHO...ugly. The other way is to wrap everything including the spokes.

Re: Where to wrap steering wheel?
Hi all, by doing a full leather wrap for the steering, it can slightly increase the thickness of the core, thus giving a more comfortable and better grip. I can show you all some colour samples which will match the steering wheel the best.
This will cost $220 with dismantling and installation works. Lead time around 1 working day. Interested can contact me on Hp 9758 6769.

Re: Where to wrap steering wheel?
i got mine wrapped at Sin Ming Road. Cost me S$180 and took about 3 days. You can choose the color of the stiching (white, black and red). They can't do multi-color, if case you are wondering
Overall, steering wheel alittle fatter than original (take awhile to get used to it). Workmanship 7 out of 10 i would say.

Re: Where to wrap steering wheel?
I dun normally do any product endorsement but in this case, i must make an exception. Ken re-wrapped my M-steering wheel with paddle shift for $220, which includes spray-painting of the lower T of the steering wheel. The new leather was wrapped over the original leather. I chose to use black threads throughout and follow the original wrapping which is actually stitched in 4 places. Overall, i rate the workmanship as 9.5/10. The wheel feels slightly thicker but it actually feels better especially with paddle shifters. You still get the finger grooves behind the wheel. To top it all, Ken came over to my place to collect and deliver. It took him 3 days. Highly recommended.

Re: Where to wrap steering wheel?
Anyone knows if my e60 still can have a decent steering wheel wrap to improve the feel and feeling 'new', at a reasonable price? Someone quoted me $400 < for alcantara, I think...

Make sure they don't trigger the airbag warning ..... Because it will need to be programmed ... Quite troublesome.
