    My 21 limited wheel is showing signs of wear after 26k. I loathe the bulky aftermarket covers. Anyone have one they like, thin and unobtrusive being my main goal.

    I bought a leather wrap kit that you stitch on yourself. If you take your time it comes out like OE.

    Where did you get that kit and how hard was it to install? Did you have to remove the horn and air bag?

    You can buy the kit on Amazon, Ebay or AliExpress. I bought mine from AliExpress because it was half the cost. You can install it without removing any parts but to get a great fit it's best to remove the steering wheel and the trim pieces on the wheel.

    There is a thread on here about the $250 ebay leather wrapped wheels. They look nice in the pics, i ordered one, waiting to get home to see it in person.
    I know the wraps are only $60 or so, but fussing with it then seeing all my imperfections every time i drive, i'd rather just pay the extra to have a nice wheel. Supposedly the quality is very good too. Will see.

    I paid $15 shipped from AliExpress and it was here in two weeks. I'd does take some skill and patience but the results can be very good.
