Restore 996 Graphite Gray leather steering wheels

Porsche originally offer Graphite Gray interior for 996 series models. When the cars were brand new, the light color gray looked bright and clean and were widely chosen from C2 to Turbo models. In 2012, while most 996 have been kept in good mechanical condition, the worn and used gray leather shows the age. We help many customers fix their graphite gray steering wheels by
simply re-wrap the wheel with extra padding
replace the whee with OEM style carbon sections
convert the wheel with new sport molding and flat bottom
and according to happy customers, it felt like driving a new car again.

USED 996 wheel






Re-wrap the leather with extra padding, make the steering wheel 2mm thicker for better grip

Used 996 graphite gray carbon steering wheel







Redo the carbon sections with new leather wrap





Not good enough for the racing style 996TT? We can also make the conversion with more ergonomic side grips and flat bottom
