Question If I offered a service (Steering Wheel Recovering) Who would be interested?

Just wondering who out there would be interested.... I've done a couple, and I"m thinking about gathering some more materials and doing a few *****/wheels...

I've got to find the correct thread, and get my leather ordered...

Anyways, who would be interested?

Damn, I didn't think about this being advertising... Sorry.

It can be deleted if need be.

Thanks

Hey, if your offering something no sponsor sells/does in-house & your not linking your own site without payin for sponsor title, I dont see why it would disappear. Your just testing the waters right now to see if there is a interest, your not currently taking orders & using the site to make money.

If it gets locked or deleted I'd be very disappointed cause we should be able to openly trade ideas for our vechicles. Thats what the site was created for. Well that & technical knowledge.

I might be interested in this as I'm doin my interior in Specialized Stainless's Ebony leather interior kit & I'd rather not buy a new steering wheel if I can get mine wrapped in Ebony leather to match.

I actually have enough ebony in stock to do that. I'm not offering yet though.

I've recondition a few vinyle parts as well, a lot of the time on the fbodies the rubber/vinyle parts start to deteriorate with contact...

I'll see if I can get a few pics...

I plan on doing the same thing. Getting a sponsor to recover my seats, and i need my wheel done. IM not that good.

This is a door panel set I did for my own Camaro. I probably won't be offering to do any of these cause they are a total pain...

The wrinkle in the headrest is part of the leather, its a hide I had selected, and that was part of the brand on the hide, its actually a raw leather, uncoated, unlike the coated OEM stuff...

can you make the wheel thicker? My wheel is in perfect shape, but I can get a spare wheel to have recovered to make the wheel thicker and easier to grab.

I would want mine rewrapped, but I want it to be thicker than stock. The stock T/A wheels are too narrow.
