Always wanted to do steering wheel with carbon fibre bits on so decide to try this and get some experience
Some time ago come across Citroen C2 VTS steering wheel which thicker then other steering wheels and have nice profile but still going to be modified and re trimmed in new leather.
Been looking for some info how to do it but didn't find much.
Will learn on my won error & mistakes.
Ordered some CF skinning resin from as-essentials but this was mine last order from them because received parcel and hardener was missing contact them same day and still waiting since Monday
Few pictures showing slow progress:
More to come .................................................
