Show Me Your Dash Kits!!!!
I just bought my 1998 GS4 with tan interior, and would like to see some fellow members wood dash kits. (preferably on tan..but I'll take whatever you guys give me!!). I know the GS400 needs some more wood..but I just want to see some pics. Can anyone help me out?? Thanks again..

i dont have one, but i SERIOUSLY considered getting a wood dash kit until i saw one in person... i have to be honest w/you, they look absolutely TERIBBLE and CHEAP... they are all stick on parts and you can tell right away... i dont know anyway to get the factory wood look w/o getting it straight from the factory. IMO, do yourself a favor and save that money b/c i PROMISE you, you will regret it down the road. just my $.02

I agree with varsity64. At first I wanted a wood kit too, but all the ones I saw in the internet were die-cut material (wood veneer or plastic). Therefore the kit would consist of 100% flat parts that would adhere to the existing plastic. The problem is that the existing plastic isn't flat. It's all subtly contoured with rounded edges. Sit in the car, look at an A/C vent's surround, and try to imagine covering the surround with a flat piece of wood veneer (or God forbids, more plastic). It won't cover the trim correctly, and the quality won't be anywhere near Lexus'. I suggest you skip the dash kit, and if your car isn't equipped with one, consider a wood-trimmed steering wheel to spruce things up.
