Thankyou for the link (trying to figure that out ) Figure they are subs to car manufacturers. anyway it looks pretty nice!
-
Thanks for the link .. Interesting... I like the bit about sending your steering wheel to them for converting to wood and premium leather... That would be funny if the wife came out to borrow your car and it had no steering wheel :lol:
I wood not have that look myself :wink:
-

My wife took my Hybrid for a good spin after I got it and hinted at a swap with her Tiida.. but with a bit of reverse psychology I managed to sort her out... :wink:

Personally, I find imitation wood really really tacky.... :eek:

I'm with you on that.. Real wood done properly like in a Roller or Jag looks nice but don't think even real wood , let alone fake wood would look right in an i30 (but each to their owm I suppose we have a very diverse group on here)
-
Presumably it cant be removed very easily, in which case I think it might hit the resale value, or at least reduce the number of people who might buy the car.

Sorry duke, didn't mean to offend...... :-[
It would be a boring world if we all liked the same things.....

that car is EPIC FAIL!!!!
looks like someone re-used a 1960's brown kitchen and wraped it around it, then put a pontoon off the back for a bumper bar!
fake woodgrain is ok on the inside of a car! just not too much tho...

You guys crack me up(LOL) I ask about wood grain dash and get the griswalds! But your not far off, owned a 1964 ford country squire wagon ( wood sides ) and a 1986 jeep wagon limted ( wood sides ) Had the jeep towed away for a donation now there worth up to 20,000.
