I have the tan perforated leather on my steering wheel. Is there any way to get it rewrapped cheap or is it better to just get a new steering wheel. The last person wore the sh*t out of it.

I have never seen a rewrapped steering wheel that looks good. Just replace with the one you want.

Hmm...I guess the problem is everywhere I look I can't find the stock one, just aftermarket.
Anyone have the tan-colored B7 steering wheel that they may not need due to them replacing it with another? I will buy it.

Look in the classifieds. Plenty of options available...

Buy a new one and keep it clean. I have yet to see any re-wraps that look ok. Body oils destroy leather, it really needs to be cleaned with a good leather cleaner (not a conditioner or 2 in 1.)

There are plenty of places that will re-wrap your steering wheel. An good upholsterer should be able to do it for you. I have a guy down here that did my seats. Not sure you want to send out your wheel but I can ask him what he would charge you

It is a 3 spoke.
Yea I might be forced to go the route of getting it upholstered.
The dealer is sooo expensive :(

i wouldnt, just stick with it and one will pop up sooner or later. They typically go for 75-100 bucks used.... getting it redone will cost double that.
