Product Questions
We get this question so often and people often think our wraps are the same as the $5 ones they find on Temu. Our first thought is always well...try it yourself and find out - it's only $5 right?
The main difference is in the template and the materials used - the most important being the actual template itself as the difference between a wrap looking and feeling good all comes down to the template. You could be using the best quality materials in the world but if the template is not right - it won't work.
We're quite particular with how we develop our templates and it usually takes us 3-4 iterations before we get to a production worthy template that we're happy with. Our wrap templates ensure that the wrap will fit on the wheel as it should - being nice and tight to achieve a factory like finish.
We also use a CNC machine to cut our templates. This eliminates human error and ensures what we've developed is precisely replicated time and time again with each order that comes through. The ones you find on Temu and AliExpress for $5? They're all cut by hand and trust us when we say - it's not always the neatest cut.
To pair with our templates - we've chosen high quality automotive grade materials to tie it all together. For example when we say a material is genuine Alcantara®, it's actually real Alcantara® - not some fake synthetic suede alternative. We source from Camari International which is the only official distributor of Alcantara® in the Asia-Pacific region.
All of this is the reason why we also offer an installation service to back it all up. You'll be hard pressed to find another business that sells wraps and also offers an installation service. Why? Because they're not even confident enough in their own product to offer the service. If they can't even install their own products - what chance do you have?
We've taken extra care to ensure your steering wheel wrap arrives in the condition it left us in.
Your steering wheel wrap will be safely packaged in our mailer box with all the necessary tools and instructions neatly packed inside.
We get asked this question often and although you do need to set aside a decent amount of time - we reckon anyone can install a steering wheel wrap!
As we're so confident in this - if in the off chance you can't install a wrap even after consulting with our team, you can send your wrap back to us and we'll offer you a full refund.
Each steering wheel wrap comes with written instructions and we also have a video tutorial on youtube. Links are attached below for your convenience:

Because we use genuine leather, you'll need to be careful with what products you use to clean your steering wheel wrap.
A dedicated leather cleaner with a microfiber cloth is best, however a slightly damp microfiber cloth will work just fine. This is also the preferred cleaning method for the vegan leather wrap variants.
With Alcantara®, it's a little different. To keep your Alcantara® cover looking its best - a quick brush down with a leather or dedicated Alcantara® brush after each use will be sufficient. This will enable you to never really need to use any cleaning product on your Alcantara® steering wheel cover.
We understand this is not realistic for most people and so if your Alcantara® steering wheel cover looks like it needs some TLC - A dedicated Alcantara® cleaner and a microfiber cloth will work wonders.
Yes of course! All steering wheel wraps come with an 12 month warranty.
There are a few points to keep in mind where our warranty won't apply:
- Alcantara® if not cleaned regularly can develop a matted down look and appear faulty. This is not the case and the Alcantara® cover just needs to be cleaned.
- Damage from normal wear and tear is not covered under our warranty. As much as we would love our products to stand the test of time, it will begin to change and wear after regular use, or improper cleaning - just like your original steering wheel would. The benefit of having your wrap wear out is far better than having your original steering wheel wear out, as replacing your entire steering wheel is far costlier.
- Damage from improper installation is also not covered under our warranty. Each wrap is perfectly cut to fit your exact steering wheel. It is here that we ask that you pay extra attention when installing your wrap to ensure it is centred and properly positioned all the way around. Care must also be taken when tucking the edges under your steering wheel trim as doing so too hard will damage the wrap.
Quite the opposite! Our steering wheel wraps are perfectly safe to use on your steering wheel and not only will it make your steering wheel look and feel brand new, it will keep your original steering wheel in tip top condition.
The caveat to this of course is that if your original wheel is already damaged, specifically if the outer material is peeling. Using tape and later removing/uninstalling the wrap will pull more of the peeling material off your wheel.
Absolutely!
Our wraps will still work as intended with heated wheels. The heating function, along with all other functions of your steering wheel will still work as intended, and it won't affect the wrap either.
No. Our steering wheel wraps are like traditional steering wheel covers in the sense that they are also removable. If your wrap is looking like it has seen better days, or you're just looking to change styles again - simply cut out the thread and remove the wrap.
If you've used the double sided tape which has been included - simply wipe off with warm soapy water.
Our steering wheel wraps are made of various materials and their thicknesses is outlined below:
- Leather: 1.4mm ± 0.05mm
- Alcantara: 1.2mm ± 0.05mm
- Carbon Fibre (Vinyl) 1.3mm ± 0.05mm
Yes, however there are a few caveats to keep in mind.
It may seem tempting to remove the old cover on your steering wheel, but if you're considering our wraps as a potential solution to repair your steering wheel - we don't recommend you do this.
Our wraps are designed using measurements taken from the original wheel, so if you were to remove your original cover, the wheel would be thinner and our wrap would not fit as intended.
What we normally do in these situations is to patch up or repair the torn section on your steering wheel, before installing our wrap over the top. This ensures the damage underneath cannot be felt or seen.
