seems a bit much. it wouldn't be so bad if they left off the pieces for the vent trim, door handle trim, heated seats panel, and power windows/arm rest panel.

I wish they had a cement trim. Now thats modern!

Not a big fan of wood trim either... But I think like a black stained wood would look real nice in the g!

i had a G w/o out it (black on black), and a G w/ it (quartz on black).

IMHO I think the wood looks WAY better than the tin trim.

Now, where would I be able to find a good swap of OEM?
do you recommend do it at dealer or somewhere else?

Not to be harsh, because I respect your posts here. But do you put on the chrome strips that go on the bottom of the door pieces? Because that would look terrible. And leaving them off leaves a concave edge on the wood when the OEM trim is convex at the bottom. You can see it in your photo on the extreme left side of the door at the bottom. This leaves a noticeable gap. I have this same kit on my car and the wood looks plastic like. Nowhere near as good as OEM and an Audi owner would be laughing on the floor. Cheap solution that looks cheap. I demanded my money back and got it. Never was told that a piece of the kit would be left off. Do you disclose that? The only good thing I can say about the kit is it covers the area near the seat heater *****.

I would guess a dealer as they would have the experience with removing and installing trim and a doner vehicle

I personally think the dark wook with a black interior looks the best. Never cared for the wood look on a light interior.

Some of the Lexus ES's with that light wood on light grey leather looks just awful!

My 09 has the "African rosewood trim"; I like it.

Hey I have an 11 sedan w/o the wood trim. At the time it was very hard to get a nonnav sedan with the wood trim. They go hand and hand. So what I did was swap with someone who was going to wrap his trim w/ cf on his sedan. I was very lucky he didn't have a lot of miles on the car. Our boys at 180custom did the swap when he was doing other work on my car. The look is completely different. I hated that aluminum crap. It completely changes the look of the car. It is a 40,000 dollar car and all of them should have wood unless you are getting the manual perhaps. Just my opinion

I couldn't agree with you more.
