I have an option to pick up a BMW GT2 v1 wheel. The Alcantara is well beaten-up. Are there Alcantara replacements for the wheel cover? What are my options?

Sure it's not just dirty? If it's glossy, flat, and turns white when you scratch it, it's dirty, not worn.
No, it is torn and worn through in places, as well as glossy in places. Wondering if there are replacement covers for the Fanatec Clubsport BMW wheels. If not, will actual car wheel covers due?
Does Fanatec sell precut Alcantara for BMW GT3 Wheels. Or, are there templates for BMW GT3 Alcantara?
if steering wheel is 38 cm then there is allot cheap covers in market
When it arrives in the mail, I will check the actual size and see what is available in actual car wheel wraps.
38cm is gigantic. I'd be very surprised if the BMW V1 wheel was that size, since most all of Fanatec's current crop of wheels are around 30 or 32cm max.
yeah it can be that this fanatec BMW one self is only a 30cm but real regular car ones are around that 35-38cm size
race cars have smaller ones so they are usually around 32-35cm
Just checked the size of the current BMW GT2 v2 wheel, it is 120mm (approx. 13in) in diameter. That is small for real car wheels. So finding a car wheel cover that size might be tricky, but doable. I also reached out to Fanatec's customer service to see if there are replacement Alcantara wheel covers that I cay buy and install. We'll see how that goes.
or todo self if have patience https://www.thehogring.com/2019/10/18/steering-wheel-upholstery/
I have stitched wheels using pre-made wheel covers. I am considering having an upholstery shop to modify a pre-made wheel cover so it fits the smaller Fanatec wheel.
