I've seen a few people use carbon fiber vinyl to wrap around it and I've also seen someone with a black wood grain vinyl wrap once.

I found pictures of most of these in various member's build threads, but I don't have any links yet. I'll try to find a few a in later to help give you some ideas.

There was a guy who recently did a piano black finish and it looks amazing. I would suggest that or the black wood grain look.

Has anyone ever sanded the wood trim with a fine grit and restained them? Added clear over them? That's my plan I want to do a cherry red kind of deal.

Here are a few of the latest added parts, the rest of the wood matches of course.

All comes down to how much you're willing to pay.

I dont think its too bad, I got quoted for all my trims including the window button trims about $350-$400 but Pattertek is local to me so i dont have to ship

If you're looking for another wood color, you can always try the 3M Dinoc series vinyl. I recently had this crazy idea to change my wood color to something unique. So I purchased a SC430 blond birds eye wheel. The rest of the wood was going to be sent off for dip tech but I found a 3M dinoc vinyl that was pretty close. The only issue was it had a matte surface. So I applied glossy vehicle wrap laminate that's able to curve and gives the impression of a clear coat. I have yet to install everything as I was sourcing the air bag and adapter wire. I finally got everything in and have been waiting for a warmer day to install. I got my inspiration from a white Soarer from Japan that's been posted from time to time that has the same light birds-eye interior. I'll see if I can dig up a picture for you.

EDIT: Found it!

Although that radio looks disgusting and I have no idea what's going on with those air vents, that looks fantastic!
