i had my old range rover wood/leather wheel recoloured by a local firm that does vehicle refinishing...everything from minor bumps/dings to bumper repairs, interior repairs etc. they use an 'emulsion' to recolour and seal the leather. i was very impressed, cost about 50 quid, when I can find the pics i'll post the before/after if you like...

or you could try it yourself first with some of this stuff ...http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PORSCHE-LEATHE...QQcmdZViewItem

hiya rob...these are the guys that did my range rover wheel, it was in a right state but ater these guys had finished with it it looked as good as new..

http://www.imagecar-care.co.uk/

it cost around 50 quid which was worth it on the rangey as the walnut/leather wheels are around £500 !!!!

i did put an ebay link on an earlier post re leather dye...might be worth a try first if you've only got a couple of wear spots...

hth
