IMO, it's all very tacky. There are a few on this board with the extra-wood and well it looks . It's just too much. I think Acura put the right amount on.

Ok....now for another opinion!

I have the OEM Acura Blackwood trim (and the extra AC Vent pieces) and I like it I was a bit unsure about it before I put in it, but now I think it adds a nice accent touch and I am glad I added it. I have gotten several favorable comments on it. My only reservation is I think it is a bit over-priced.

Actually, the real reason I got it was to ward off evil transmission spirits in the hope I would not have the infamous transmission problems, but alas, a replacement transmission was ordered for my car by the dealer a few days ago...

I also have the gauge cluster and the a/c vents. I like it better with it than without it.... without it looks too boring. I don't have picks yet, probably borrow me friends this weekend, keep u posted.
