Leather steering wheel cover

I am about to inherit my wife's 1998 Maxima GLE. It has a leather steering wheel. She apparently drives it the same way because the wheel is worn in one spot. What can be done to fix this wear spot. The wear spot is not worn through merely rough.

I have a wheelskin cover. Their pretty nice. i really like mine. The leather has a soft comfortable feel to it.
One thing though, its very time consuming to put it on.

My interior is the same as metallic97gxe, my cover is the opposite of his though. Its two tone but where his is grey mine is black and vice versa for the other.

Here is where I got mine... http://www.dccarcare.com/wseuro.html their a little cheaper.
