My pre-owned 2008 G37S has wood paneling inside...

I have yet to see pictures of another G37S Coupe with the wood paneling inside like mine. I bought the car certified pre-owned. Do you think that the person that owned it before me did this wood paneling? Or was this an option in 2008? I will see if I can get a picture up.

Yes, there was an option for wood trim. The coupe that I test drove back in 2008 had it.

You could not get the wood trim package with the "S", only the washi finish.... at least not with a 6MT.

Pictures will tell if it's a real kit or aftermarket. I'd like the real wood kit in my sedan but I'm not paying the +$2000 that Infiniti wants for the parts.

I recently purchased a pre-owned g37s also. It too had "wood" paneling. In all actuality this paneling was just adhesive backed plastic that resembled wood. It may be attractive to some but I made the removal of the "wood" a condition of the sale.

Here is my thread
