As title got a 2006 997 am waiting on picking up it's on 50k miles so want to bring interior back to life what are my options on the steering wheel?

Anyone know anyone local to me that would offer a good retrim?
Also wouldn't mind a thicker chunky wheel, seen some services on EBAY offering flattening out also looks quite smart.

Thanks
 
Royal Steering Wheels seem to place to go to for this and have great reviews on here. There are not close to you (Aylesbury) but you can post the wheel to them to save yourself the trip.

Hmm good question, I had a look at their gallery http://royalsteeringwheels.com/997987-2/ and did not see any on there but I would definitely ask them, if they don't do it perhaps they know someone reputable that will. Good luck :thumbs:
 
Linas at DesignLS is your man and you can post it to him he can make it thicker and flatten the bottom inc the thumb rests. etc also he can add a colour band at the 12 oclock position . also can add carbon or alcantara etc. if you want it. Also worth considering while you have bits with him are embossed armrest he has the tooling for the porsche word or crest plus others they look great with the matching french stitching. there are various threads on here with pics of his work

I'm in Stockport and had mine done by Royal. Jack thickened it up for me and did the design as i asked. He did an exchange service so sent me the finished wheel and I sent him the original back.

Thanks mate so glad I found this forum.
I'm new to Porsche & new to Lancashire so any help on where to get stuff for the car is appreciated. I'll defo be doing this steering wheel when I get the car.

Also any advice on nice places to eat in southport would be good too?
My wife & I have been down a few times when weather has been good last few weekends.
 
Royal and designLS are the two preferred retrimers on this forum both have very good reputations on here :thumb:
