Default Re: Steering Wheel Dye --- my wheel is turning colors

I will search out other options- maybe take it to an auto upholstery shop? Thanks!
The charcoal grey looks a bit olive green under certain light. Black would go good with my car (the base model). The shift boot is black and my new radio has some black in it.... not mention the car color is black. I just took the wheel cover off and never put the black on it... was not a fan of the feel in the grip. The best thing to do is find a shop that can dye and match the color. I bought a new wheel (used but looks new) and one day I will replace it when it gets really worn.
