Question about trim

I hate the fake wood trim....

where can i pick up something that will look pretty decent. I have a 97 acura cl 3.0, with a black exterior, oem interior, but i'm half way done puttin in neon blue floor lights and the such. what trim would look good?

i saw a pretty sick black woodish trim inside a 2nd gen cl, does anybody know where i can order it?

thanks alot for your help

You can't buy replacements, you have to take the existing trim out and either wrap it or paint it, that's what I'm doing

any fabric store that sells Vinyl or leather or even suede. Depends on what you want to go with. A lot of guys use the "Carbon FIber" vinyl

go to a fabric store or apolstery shop (to look at samples), get what you like best....
the aformentioned cf vinyl look pretty good with a charcoal interior, which i'm assuming you have

do a search, there's a DIY for taking the trim out and wrapping it on here somewhere, i save d the link on my other comp, i'm on my work comp or else i would throw it up here for you, it'll help you out a ton

reaaaaally wanna make my woodgrain that satin silver color, but taking that shit out is a bitch..
that plastic is so fragile, i chipped/cracked it as soon as i tried taking it off.

is there any thin adhesive film or something that comes in different colors?
