Interior Trim

Are there any custom interior trim?
I personally don't like the wood trim. It just makes me old.
It would be great if there are carbon fiber trim (silver/black) for 05+ RL.

http://www.mugen-power.com/topics/legendmax0501/

If you go there and see the interior of that LEGEND MAX, it has carbon fiber trim.
and I also want that "M" pedals.

Where can I get these and how much will it be?

One last thing, Are there any aftermarket grill for 05+ RL? I really like the LEGEND MAX grill. OR maybe I could go for Honda grill with one thick line. Looks much sharper.
I just don't like the 4 chrome lines of grill.

While I would also love to see some C/F trim, I have to disagree about not liking the wood trim...it is gorgeous!

I find carbon fibre trim to look gayer than gay, too "fast & the furious" wannabe street racer style and feel it would butcher the RL's interior....but to each their own.

If I were able to customize the interior accent and trim, I'd go for a black wood color (like bmw's anthracite maple) rather than the custom selected and hand polished maple.

If it's real carbon fiber then yes it would look good, but fake carbon looks awful imho

You got a problem? I already have RL, and I'm planning to modify my car and of course I donnot want my car to look cheap. You don't need to reply like that, just ignore it if you don't like my post.

I want it to be real carbon fiber. Is RL's wood trim real wood like maybach?

LOL beat me to it. I would like to see Acura experiment with different wood options, though. With Lexus and Audi, you can choose different colors of wood. I think this wood would like really good with the ebony interior (try to ignore the frankenstein stitching on the seats ( ) ). Also like the aluminum on the A/C vents

Jezz, this looks like a 78 Caddy. You can keep the blond wood trim. Mary Kay anyone.

If you look at the interior pictures of the RL (aka Legend) on the Japanese Honda website, you'll see that there's an RL model with extremely dark wood on the dash in place of the curly maple.

http://www.honda.co.jp/LEGEND/interi...ane/index.html

They also have pictures of the car with cloth seats.

LOL it doesn't match the parchment (?) interior, but imagine it in an ebony interior. I think the contrast would look good.

That's that "smoked" wood that Honda's been using on past interiors, like in the CL-S and the MDX. I personally don't like it.

The only thing I like of that interior pic is the silver trim on the vents, rest is blah.

The dark wood is ugly. I passed on a great deal for a 545 sport because the black wood was so bad. What tranny do the legends have? I like the shifter with leather boot better than ours.

I'm suprised to see that in the land of the rising sun, the Legend doesn't have a sunroof.
