beachlander Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 So I have an oldish dished Nardi in my Celica. Like it a lot, but there is a little hole right where my hand goes and is quite annoying, as you can see below. Is there some way I could repair this without having to re trim the entire wheel?

flyingbrick Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Man there is no way you could make that look decent. Give it to Greg at midnight upholstery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaver Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Glue on a patch of material. Or just cover it in glue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingbrick Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Dont give a shit what it looks likeDuct tape then, lolDont cover it in glue. You will ruin the foam under it and make it harder to repair properly later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shavenYak Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 some of that non-adherent sports bandage might be ok for a quick fix - doesn't get all sticky like tape would. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 pull the wheel off and rotate 180 degrees? will at least move the worn spot away from your hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 IV GOT IT! Perfect repair.. Use TESA loom tape. Its fabric backed, black, stretchy like the bandage but its also self amalgamating so once its on there it won't come off or leak gooey adhesive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
