Can my steering wheel be re leathered ???

I won't stop using it, But it is out of an old e12 m racer, So I can't get another. It has started to leave my hands a little black after use....

Help.

Have you tried companys like the Furniture Clinic to see if they have a product(s) to renovate it?

Yes it can.
But try a saddlmakers first as they are cheaper on price.

Thank's for the info, Will try the saddel maker's first, I don't think Furniture Clinic have anything to do it with as it's to far gone.

you'll be looking at paying at least 150 to re trim and stitch a steering wheel properly.

Just had the top section of a momo re done in alcantara, and that was 50. Quid, but the trimmer who did it is one of the best in the business.

I had my tech 1 wheel re covered in black leather for AUS$100 (about 50 quid) and it looks pretty good IMO.
