Replacing Wood Trim, Piano Black?

I've been getting a bit bored by the fake wood trim in the MDX and an idea hit me after seeing a new 7 series with piano black wood, it's amazing! Here's a quick photoshop of what it'd look like:
Before with Zebra wood trim:



After Paino Black finishing:


Of course it would be much more glossy and reflective, but just to give a general idea of it.

This will be the actual gloss level and depth to the wood:



Do you guys think it would look good or cheesy?

In complete honesty, especially with your interior color, I think the factory faux wood looks better. Just my .02.
