So I've seen on these lovely vehicles the steering wheel plastic shit starts to peel off and begins to look like shit, a pretty decent fix with 3X wrap from Amazon is totally legit. Kind of annoying taking the steering wheel face and airbag out to get the part off you need but it literally takes 2 hours to complete and looks pretty good.

First image is what it looked like before

Second is with flat black

Third is with the gloss black

The flat black I actually got from discount auto parts. It was cheap (20 bucks) and I only did it for experimental purposes which turned out great. The gloss black I got from Amazon. Basically you take the face off the steering wheel peel the excess crap off of the part that's peeling use rubbing alcohol to clean off glue and oil and shit and then you kinda cut out a big enough piece to fit. Use a blow dryer to head it up and a squeegee (one with a velvet end) and kinda work your way with it. It's super easy because if you mess it you can peel it offend re try it. The heat from the blow dryer makes it mold able/takes out the memory and the squeegee helps with air bubbles.
