Default GS400 Woodgrain?

I've searched and searched the forum and have found many different answers to my questions which arent really helping me. Does anyone know the color of the woodgrain in my car? I want woodgrain in my car but i don't want the stickers. I've hear B&I makes the woodgrain for lexus. I have also heard about hydrographics. What should i do? I want to make it look oem.

this is the color woodgrain thats in my car.

I dont mind it being expensive unless its an outrageous price. I just want a nice finish and nothing that looks cheap. Thank you though. Other than hydrographics what other approach could i take?

Sorry unless you have a 2012 with burl wood, then it will not match and after a year or so it will fade fast.

Wat pieces are you trying to get. I have a car I'm picking pieces from. The interior is in good shape. Let me know and I'll give you a number if I got what your looking for.
