i have the black wood... i like it, however i get alot of mixed responces... alot of people dont like it because it looks fake, however with that in mind, i think it enhances the plain look of the dash panels... i recommend it... or go for a brushed allum. or carbon fiber

I have it in the burlwood and I like it. I have the wheel, the molded addons from the factory and the after market kit. I did not put on all the peices as it would have looked tacky, but overall I get good responses.

I have the black wood on mine and like it way better than the reg. black plastic......but to each his own. I didnt use all the pieces either b/c that would have been overkill.
Here are a couple of pics:

Don't know the company?
I wanted to know because I have searched and there are several companies that sell the "dark burlwood OEM" kit but your's looked pretty good. Actually, almost an OEM look.
Since you've purchased your kit, the prices have gone up... alot.
If you happend to remember, please post. Thanks.

I want to do the aluminum trim or the carbon fiber trim but I would like to do the pieces that come stock. If it came with those pieces I would definitely pick it up. I didn't see any pics of the kits installed. Has anyone dealt with them before....

Thanks Twenty03TypeS! I'm going to get the Real Carbon Fiber kit. But I won't be needing all those pieces, just the ones that will replace my black wood. I'll be more than happy to give the additional to anyone who wants the rest, it's just over kill to me with 42 pieces. I'm assuming install is pretty easy?
