Does the leather stay in place or has it shifted or twisted around the rim? Is the stitching OK? When cleaning, does the leather colour hold or wears off etc?

Thank you.

No issues with mine. 1 year or so of use.

No shifting, or loose threads. Only cleaned with a wet cloth and fine, can't comment on any chemicals and detergents though.

Look legit? Is it something that most anyone can do as long as you are patient? It looks like a easy task, as long as you follow the instructions, watch some tutorial videos and take your time.

there is a guy on eBay who does it. i have mine done in my m5 about every 8 or 9 months as soon as it starts to look a little shiny

he does an amazing job, literally looks the same as oem, right down to the tri color stitching on the wheel.

here is an example. the pics show the quality.

you can buy the wheel from him or you can send him your wheel and he'll re wrap it. I've had mine wrapped twice now. and will do it again in a few months.
