Default Anyone tried exotic wood dash kits? I am not from AZ

I am looking to replace some of my worn and damaged aluminum trim and shifter surround with a carbon fiber, ran across this stuff?

Wood is ugly in cars IMO.

Default Thats just stick on right? Hard to tell if it wraps all the way around or not. I'd hate to see the

edges. I gotta do something about my ugly wood dash.

Default I think the aluminum looks the best but I don't mind the wood. My 540 had wood to and I guess...

I got used to it. I'm not a big fan of the CF look either. But like you said- that's just my opionion.

Hell if we all liked the same crap we'd all be driving silver w/Onyx interiors... Oh wait- thats what mine looks like.

Default I would recommend against it. They use real carbon fiber, but its secured via adhesive, I have seen

it in person, I was dissapointed. For an extra $200 you are better off having CF trim made over the wood trim, it looks ten times better.
