As promised, here are some pix. The photos don't do it justice. Even though the layered wood looks really great, (happy accident... more on that in a sec) I really love the Carbon Fiber.
As far as the ebay vendor, if it is factory parts, that is a really good deal. When I ordered my Q7, I ordered it with the grey walnut however the dealership screwed up and ordered the layered wood by mistake. They offered to swap out the trim or credit me back the cost of the trim and labor. The cost for the grey wood trim without labor was about $1600-1700 (woof).
The swap was super easy with a little patience.
And now, some photos...Sorry for the sideways pic

Here are some pictures. I wish I would have taken some of the disassembly. The yellow line show where the 8mm bolts are. They are accessible through the glove box and under the steering column. The red lines are screws to be removed. It was a very easy job once you see how it is put together. I did not have any manual, but looked at the new parts to see where they were attached. It took me about 2 hours. If I had to do it again, it would take 30 min.
