Default Steering Wheel: Bangs / Nicks / Dents

Beware.... I just noticed that I have some dents and nicks in the wood portion of my steering wheel... it's at about 4:00 / 5:00. At first I couldn't figure it out... what would've done this and only in that location.

Then this morning, pull into work, jumping out of the car... it's the seat belt. When I unlatch it and throw it aside, it hits the wheel sometimes. Damn!

Just a heads up... I'm assuming there's no way to fix those dents except for a new wheel. Crap'ola.

I remember I had a few nicks from wearing my watch around the sides of the steering wheel.
