Hi guys so my steering wheel isn't in the best condition and I want to get it re trimmed. Is there anyone that does them or know of anyone? Cheers

Also interested in knowing

Talk to Vspec Performance in Melbourne. They know a guy (forgot his name/shop) that do mostly suede & alacantra retrimming but I'm assuming can do leather too.

I'm located in wollongong nsw. Any local places?? Worse case I can just post to them once I get a quote I guess

I would be interested to know what it would cost. Muse seem to be Facebook only - their website looks to be non-existent.

Vspec quoted $650 to refurbish my R32 GT-R wheel a couple of years ago. That seemed like a lot of $$ but maybe that is just what it costs.

There is also this from a similar thread a while ago:

$300 is what I pay. I get mine done through Shaun at Trims in Canberra.

It's not exactly the same leather as oem. I'll post pics of my oem next to a new retrimmed one this evening.

Which I assume is: http://www.trimsbyshaun.com.au/

Mine looks rubbish now so I should get onto doing something about it.

I just called the Canberra guys they said $350-$385 depending on the condition of the wheel he can also rebuild from scratch if needed. I'll post up what muse quotes me once I call them later today.

 

I also got quoted from a guy west of Sydney for $450 for just leather re trim.

Have looked in this a bit myself & have seen Peter at Planet Soarer recommended a few times. Quality looks good & quite quick turn around.

Called muse design he said $589+ gst. Soarer guy looks nice and cheap. But how good are the jobs up close?

I got x trim to do mine. They are in smeaton grange nsw. Was $350 i think. Came out really nice. Not like the stock "leather". Real leather was used. It is a little bit lighter than a stock one but it goes dark if you amourall it.

Workmanship and feel is fantastic

I dont use that sort of stuff at all anymore. Spray anf wipe with water and some leather cleaner/conditioner from time to time where needed.

I've had 5 done through trimsbyshaun and the results are top notch. Uses genuine leather. Turnaround is around 5 business days. Maybe a few days more if your interstate.

I have a re trimmed 32 one sitting at Trojan Motorsports in Canberra. $450 exchange.
