It looks good other than the wood grain dash. Defnitely not something that belongs in a sports car.

All leather wrapped, plus Vette seats. I'd love to replace the wood grain with carbon fiber and stainless accents.

Doubt this cost less than 10k though.

Why not every other manufacturer shy of Rolls Royce uses them.

1. No way that interior cost $10k. Not a chance. I don't see how it could hit $4500.

2. Wood-grain stickers in an FBody? They are like $120, but if you get 'em, put on your flamesuit before you post!

3. That dash isn't wrapped. The company that wrapped that used patterns and high quality seams. There are none on the dash. For more evidence, the SRS is still on the airbag cover. Not a covered dash!

4.

Ugh. I don't like anything about that. There's like 7 different colors, WAY too much going on. Maybe if it was just two-tone it would actually look good.

Speaking of woodgrain, there was one of those old school dash kits in my '92 Camaro when I got it...



After...



Believe it or not, it took me FOUR YEARS to finally get around to taking it all off. I can't believe I didn't do it sooner, it looks sooooo much better now. I still haven't bothered replacing the seats yet, that's next on the list

I LOVE that wood grain. Were they trying to take the look back to the 70s! Those panels are HUGE. It looks like those 70s wooden walls got chopped up for the kit! I bet the car is so much better now!

Wood belongs on furniture and moldings and stair rails.

My 9-3 has wood grain accents and I hate it, and am in the process of removing them for brush aluminum accents.

As for the dash being wrapped, they wrapped the instrument gauge bezel, which in a t/a encompasses the light switch as well.

I don't like anything about that interior.

First of all, I'm just not really a big fan of gray interiors in general, but that's just me. My big issue is that there is a hundred different colors with no obvious pattern to them. And then the random wood grain, which I don't really like under any circumstance, especially against gray.

barf all around for me
