Leather Steering wheel wrap

Anyone find a decent steering wheel wrap for their Toy. The leather on mine is getting pretty worn. Would like a perforated leather one preferably. I found quite a few on the net but no specific pics of what they are going to send me. Can anyone here recommend a mfg. or company. Thanks

I wrapped mine up with Brook's leather handle bar tape. It will set you back about $70 at a bicycle shop. I should have got the brown (comes in black, brown and tan), but now that it's gotten nice and dirty it doesn't clash nearly as much. It's held up perfectly for over 10K mi. so far, you just need to go easy on it for a while so the edges don't get rolled up.

Go with wheelskins. Cheap to buy, good quality and looks good. Mine was about $30. Got the two tone and is holding up well. The only pain is that you have to stitch it on, but it is easy, just about 1hrs time.

I agree I had one on my 68 mustang it was great and the stitching makes it look very professional.

Ive been looking for this style for a long time I cant find them in the stores any more. I found them online but I dont know about the quality. I want some good quality leather. If someone knows where I can get one in tan hook me up with a link.
