So anyways... I was making a left turn, and as the steering wheel was going back into place my nail dug into the wheel. Now I have a giant gash on TOP of my steering wheel... Are the scratches on the steering wheel fixable? Or would I have to get the whole steering wheel replaced? It's happened to me before but on the bottom of the steering wheel where it isn't really noticeable. Has this happened to anyone else?

 

That sucks! The sad part about it all is the fact that you have to look at it every time you drive...

 

Dude cut your nails!!! lol jk jk, happens to me all the time but they go away, i guess they are superficial...

 

I'd like to know if this is repairable as well. My glovebox has two scratches as well. I have no idea how they got there.

Soft plastics look and feel better, but I guess the downside is, they are much more prone to scratches. Actually, everything on this car is too soft: The paint, the clearcoat over the wood, the plastic, the leather.

 

Exactly, I have one on the bottom so i rarely see it, but this one is right in the middle of the top of the steering wheel.
I cut my nails every week LoL!
I concur, my wood trim is scratched, and the plastic on the seats is scuffed...

 

I did it twice already LOL. You'll forget about it after a while.

 

I hope so... this is a large scratch though...

 

you could have your steering wheel wrapped again, search ebay for a replacement, or ignore it. haha i have one too, but honestly you forget that its there like iSuxel said

 

i dunno how bad it is, but when that happens to me, i just take a microfiber + leather conditioner and work it in a little bit

 

Lol. I scratched it with my nail the past weekend. I carry 5 microfiber towels in my car so I just started rubbing the mark. Only a little is left but it's not noticeable until you look really closely. Don't worry about it!

 

I don't think I can really rub it out... as there are ripples in the scratch

 

dang, your nails must have been loong and sharp!!

 

I'm guessing he didn't tell you that he goes by the name of...

...WOLVERINE!!

 

here is one guy that my friend used in the past.

I actually did this and the dealer fixed it under warranty because I said the leather was dry and it split under normal conditions. You can always give this a shot and yes, it is absolutely repairable.
