Porsche 918 Spyder Steering Wheel Retrim

Harry Pitcher • April 23, 2026

This is the second Porsche 918 Spyder to come through d:class for a steering wheel retrim. The reason for this one, however, is a little unusual. The previous owner chose to cut corners by hand-painting the racing band orange... hardly the right approach on any car, let alone one of this calibre.


From factory, this 918 Spyder featured a distinctive neon green racing band, designed to tie in with other signature details across the car, such as the rev needle, rear badging, and brake calipers. Naturally, the new owner wanted this put right, and the car was promptly brought to us for a wheel retrim.

Using the correct Porsche black and orange nappa leather, we retrimmed this wheel to OEM standard, perhaps improved. The orange stitching is Porsche Spyder orange, which is sold on our online store here, along with plenty of other manufacturer threads, not just Porsche.


The wheel was completed, all parts reassembled, and installed back into the car ready for collection.

This beautiful Ferrari 328 GTS came to d:class with a common repair job. Mickey mouse had moved himself in whilst the vehicle was being long-term stored, and fancied a diet of 80s Italian leather. This does happen with vehicles being stored over long periods of time, especially those who store their cars with vehicle storage companies near any farmland. So, the job was to retrim both seat bases, retrim the handbrake lever, both of the seat side trims, and some of the rear bulkhead trim. Who knew mice could have such exotic dietary requirements. Mickey wasn't very tidy and left a lot of mess, so we gave the car a clean inside and out, ready for the customer. We don't typically post this kind of work, but we are suckers here for a 1980s Ferrari, so we had to shoot it....and make a Fast and Furious parody clip. Enjoy!

This AC Cobra Mk IV came to d:class as part of a collaborative restoration with our good friends, Redline Engineering UK. The customer wanted the car completely refreshed with a new body colour, mechanical overhaul, new exhaust, wheels, a full interior retrim, and more. We were tasked with retrimming the vehicle but ensuring to keep it traditional. So no new radios, switches, or any other modern upgrades to distract you from this beautiful car.
