In the pic below, is that one of those stick on dash "wood look-alike" pieces? How do you like it? Did you put that on your console as well? Can I see a pic of it if yes?
No stick on pasties for this beautiful car of his, that is custom made and no not stuck on. Lots of time and money to make it look like that and it will never peel off.

I seldom see black interior on most Lexus cars with non-black exterior around here. Beige or tan interior is probably the most popular interior color choice Lexus dealerships supply here.

guys- thanx a lot. i really appreciate it. i'm going to to do a more detailed thread hopefully next week when i fully finish with the interior. with closeups of everything.

Hameed- blk on blk and silver on blk are the only blk interior combo's you really see out there. very rare if ever will you see a blu/blk or red/blk or white/blk like sick had on the road. this is why i went with the conversion, after seeing how nice my trunk looked with blk i desired to do the whole car matching. it was a pain but i am glad it worked out.

as far as the led's i have varad led sticks going under the dash and under the seats. i'm not sure which name brand led's are going to be used for the dome lights and door lights but i will find out when it goes into the shop end of next week...

as far as the Granite. its not a sticker.. its a design just like our wood pieces heated and lamanated on. trully looks and feels oem...i was going to do the blk wood design but saw the granite coming on some of the new cars and figured i'd try it. here are a few closeup of the wheel and other pieces which came out so perfectly...

Yes, they do look absolutely awesome!!! And yes your granite choice is a very good choice. Very unique and classy to say the least.

I need to get this done to my car......................
