I have seen a few threads where folks have sent steering wheels off to get them recovered in leather or other materials, extra padding etc added. I am thinking of sending off my steering wheel (3 Spoke wheel in black leather) to be covered in black alcantra with a small white (or other color?) stripe added at the top, and with platinum stitching to match the other interior thread in my car (black interior).

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to send it? Or any recommendations on colors/styles/threads or recommendations for adding thickening or stuff like that?

Anyone have any custom wheels? (Chuck I have seen your threads, looks great)

Something like the below, although I am not sure what color this alcantara is (or the wheel for that matter, I am kind of color blind)

Or this one, looks like it has been thickened and a flat bottom added somehow?
