Interior Wood Upgrade

Have had my 2005 RL for over a year now...31,000 miles....what a great car. I've seen a few offerings for interior wood upgrades on the dash...but don't want to cheapen the look of the car...and would love to add more wood on the doors and center console, too...if available. Any ideas?

The ONLY thing I would add would be the wood shift knob and the steering wheel. Anything else I think, might cheapen it,

Search the site, someone had a thread much earlier this year about stick-on wood they put on their console and cup holder. It didn't look that great, as I recall....

I agree just the wood steering wheel and knob alone will give you the more luxurious feel. I love mine.

I like that steering wheel, but not because of the wood, it's because it looks like it's got grips at 10 and 2 o'clock. I miss that from the TL.
