I agreed with the previous poster that the cherry wood (lx package) looks much better than those M-Benz black woods in the picture. Having said that its your personal choice man, below are a few places where you could purchase them from:

Thanks for the sites.... I'm just tired of the OEM wood trim... There are so many scratches in it that are driving me crazy.. So I figured a darker wood would hide the scratches better...

Understand What about repaint your whole interior dash board trims to match your exterior color ? This - in my opinion will look much nicer and unique than the MBenz alike black wood trims

I was asking myself the same question they only give us two different color trims...

I don't know about color matching it to my car I think it would look weird with Starfire Pearl interior... Plus I was thinking more of a dark theme for the inside since I have the black interior... The white would stand out to much

The LS's dark grey bird's eye maple wood trim looks even better than those shown above, they should offer that as an alternative to the brown wood, instead of that painted plastic they have for the sports model now . . .

My thoughs exactly. It looks like something that belongs in a neon. That'd be a deal breaker for me, I couldn't stand to stare at something so ugly for the next 4+ years I've have the car.

Worst part about the E-class is that it doesn't have a touch screen navi it's so annoying to use... But i still like the look of the black wood that it has
