Suede Steering Wheel Wrap

KaedeNR · 10-13-2019, 01:05 PM

So like many early adopter got my X3M40 at the tail end of 2018 and didn't get the sport steering wheel. Without spending 2 grand for a new steering wheel i decided to try out a wheel wrap. Turned out pretty well i thought.

Took about 2-3 hours of sewing, I didn't use double sided tape since I didn't want to damage the leather below.

Link for those interested themselves.

Edit: trying to fix image link

Wow that looks great! I've never been bothered about not having the m sport wheel but I really like this mod.

My "hands" would love to feel that wheel, very nice!

How did the installation go? Did you have to remove any pieces from the steering wheel to get the cover installed?

It was pretty easy, and i dont have any experience in sewing stuff. Nothing was removed and the wrap is not permanent. It is a little bit of a time commitment though.
