I noticed all the pics I could find shows the wood trim inside. I havn't seen it yet, but how does the metallic trim look? Anybody have pictures?

 

The first time I saw the metallic-looking trim, I thought it was tight, and thought the wood was ugly. But once I actually went to see the car in person, the wood looked so, so much better. It's a lot darker than most cars, and looks great against black interior. And now when I look at the metallic-looking trim, which is really just plastic painted silver, I can't help but think it looks cheap. No offense to people who have it and like it... it just isn't for me, though.

 

You took the words out of my mouth.

 

wood doesnt belong in this car..imo. There isnt enough of it to make an impact. They should have used real aluminum.

 

I disagree. If it was lighter-colored wood like in non-AMG Mercedes or BMW's, then yeah, it wouldn't belong. But with it being so dark, it's totally sleek and classy, just like the rest of the car.

 

I have a black on black and I think the wood blends in very well.

 

The JDM IS has a piano black trim..with a light color wood on the doors..it's the best look interior I've seen

 

they should've had real carbon fiber trim for the sports package. oh well, can't have it all...

 

The wood looks nice, but I prefer the metallic trim. It looks sportier IMO... here's some pics as requested:

I like the wood, but I think Aluminum would have looked best (i hate to say it, but the same aluminum that you can get on a 3-series.) But each person has their own opinion.

 

i agree.. i want that trim SOOOOO bad right now.

 

Well there are several threads on this already, but i'll state my opinion here as well... I like the wood better than the plastic.

 

carbon fiber looks the best in this car with black interior.

 

it doesnt really matter..either way its a nice car. girls like, I like it, my parents like it..guys in audi a4's loathe it..but thats ok with me

 

This topic has indeed been discussed thoroughly, but after doing a search, I think this is the first thread that actually has pictures of the metallic trim. This is, after all, what the OP asked for - not what everybody thinks of the trim.
