Interior Paint

Hey guys. Can anyone tell me what paint I need to clean up my interior? the paint seems to be peeling/cracking in certain places (Mainly the steering wheel) Since I bought the car and Id like to fix it up so that it looks new. I'm more of an electromechanical kind of guy, so when it comes to cosmetics, i'm a full on newbie.







If you have a link to any parts that I can replace as an alternative to painting please provide them. Thanks for anyone's help!

A couple other off topic questions :
Will a steering wheel cover dampen the heating feature?

Will seat covers dampen the heat I feel from the heated seats?

I would just replace them with them with new ones if you're going for the same color. If not paint them and other interior pieces whatever color you like.

The steering wheel pieces only come off if you remove the steering wheel.

I'm with you on this one. I've tried to find the parts online but had no luck. I've been toying with the idea of just re-painting everything because that's obviously about the only way to get it all to match, but it seems like a ton of work and there's things painted on them for instructions like VOL UP DOWN etc so I'd rather just replace them all together. Hopefully somebody chimes in with a great site!!!....

I would not paint that stuff.. Do you have any idea how tedious that is going to be to prep each piece to make it look new again? You can get every piece on your car from a dealers catalog.
