After 5 months I'm getting used to it but still don't really like it much. Nobody makes a kit that covers the door/dash wood strip..at least I can't find one. May try that company that puts the carbon fiber film over the pieces if I can get them off. Either that or get them colormatched.

Anyway, what do you think of the wood?

plus, it doesn't look incredibly fake like some other cars

Yea it definately adds class. Its just enough to tie the interior colors together. I tried to carbon fiber it, but it just wasn't feasible. Too hard to get off, and it still wouldn't look that great.

I had mines removed and covered with REAL Carbon Fiber, then covered with resin, all I have to do now is get it clear coated, and it will match my Fiber Images Carbon Fiber Hood. I'll put up pics as soon as I get it clear coated.
