Default Steering wheel restoration/replacement
Hello All, I am new to the Lexus forum. I was wondering if any of you knew a place where I can restore my steering wheel(add grip and maybe carbon fiber). I live in Socal close to Riverside. Any suggestions would be great. If you happen to know someone who does the work and they happen to have an IG/FB please let me know their username so I can check out there work! Much appreciated.

Below are pictures of how bad my steering wheel looks

If you go through a shop for a full leather-replacement on the wheel, be sure to price compare vs a used or new Lexus wheel online. I got my slightly used Canadian F-sport steering wheel for <$300 shipped.

I used steering wrapped, easy but really nice fit, outcome is really good. You could chose color you want as well.

Whitebeast, that looks really good. Where did you get that one from? Mine is nothing like the OP, but it does have a little wear that now looks out of place compared to the brand new dash and door panels.
