Removed leather from steering wheel
For those of you who have been through it, there's nothing like that sticky crumbly, dry rotted 16 year old factory leather steering wheel to **** you off on an otherwise nice day.
I hd one of those ghetto do it yourself covers on there for a awile but to be honest, I was embarrased to have an otherwise show appearance all the time and this abomination of a steering wheel. I can't afford a recover at the moment so I ripped off all the old leather. It took a couple hours, a putty knife and a LOT of goo-gone, but it looks pretty good. I taped it off and repainted the spokes too.
What do you guys think? It's not as nice as a recover, but it was free, and it doesn't look half bad, and I'm pretty ****.

Can't wait to put this wheel on. I swore it would be the last piece on the car, so it might be awhile. I'm still doing mechanical work and am afraid of getting it greasy.
