is yours gone or cracked??

i don't know who it was, but someone on this forum found a wood trim overlay that almost perfectly matched the dash/door wood trim for the center console part you want to replace. it was a very thin wood trim piece that I believe had an adhesive backing..so you would press it onto your plastic piece..and it gave it a wood trim finish that seemed to match the OEM trim really well.

i saw some pics of it online...and IIRC, it wasn't that expensive. less than $150 i think.

if you have the stock piece bbut it's just all messed up.. maybe before you pay 150 for a new one it would be worth trying out the wood overlay thing... the pics I saw made me think it actually looked pretty nice.

good luck.

My friend gave me one of those car air freshners and i tied it around the wood knob and i guess it was in the sun too long. It melted into the vinyl and i tried everything to get it out and now its completely ruined.

No, he is saying take the one you have, sand whatever is on it down to smooth, and then repaint it.
