I dunno what you consider reasonable but try: www.american-stitches.com for the wheel.

For the handles try this: http://l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=2057

I dont have these items but everyone seems to go to these places....

I recently emailed American Stitches for a price quote on a leather and wood S/W for my 2GS. They told me they do not do leather and wood S/W for our 2GS anymore.

DAMN! I was JUST thinking of calling them! What can I do for my badly cracking steering wheel? I don't want to put one of those cheap covers on it. How much do you think a local upholstry shop would charge to re-wrap the steering wheel with color matched leather? Or is there another (cheaper) alternative like the leather sprays that "fill-in" the cracks...do you think this might work?

American Stitches can still do an all leather S/W. They can even do it in two tone or color match and leather. They just don't do leather and wood anymore.

Sounds good! But the only thing is my car is my daily driver...it would be kind of hard to get to work without a steering wheel. lol! I was thinking of bringing the car to a local shop on a Friday and see if they can finish it by Saturday night. Is this possible? How long would you think it takes to re-wrap a steering wheel with an oem look? and how much $$$ should I expect to spend? Thanks again...

Found these on ebay. Look to be a decent product for someone wanting a wood wheel. Might consider it myself, just unsure about the Hong Kong location. Ive had bad experiences when I order out of the states.
