Three years ago I had the Auto Body shop acroos from my office put a New one on for me, it was $220.00 installed at the time.

 

Kinda to late for the OP to benefit from it, but I figured maybe someone could.... I had the same problem and found a good fix and NO ONE has ever been able to tell is not factory. They retail for around 100 bucks I think, but I worked a a parts store a few years back and my cost was under 30. Ive had it probably 3 years or so and its starting to show some wear (over 140,000 miles on it), but still looks better than the messed up steering wheel. I am not a fan of "cheesy aftermarket crap", so I was skeptical about it at first. It comes in two different wood grains and one matches the larriat door panel trim to a "T"

I just bought an 05 f350 and the lettering on the steering wheel is worn off. can I purchase new buttons for the wheel?
