Wow baller. Freeing up money by modding a Lexus as if it was a Honda Civic doesn't seem like a good financial "investment" to me....

I would stick to a stock Porsche over a riced out GS any God give day.

Good luck with the build

 

 

I assume the flash might show the red more. It might not be too bad in person.

I would prefer blakwood with my black leather but I do like the red wood.

 

Yeah but the one on the door panel is not covered in the photo. It's not the flash.

 

The door panel was not covered in that photo yet... The edges are not noticeable at all in person.

I will maybe eventually have everything done in piano black but for now I needed to get ride of the red wood.

I had a CLS with wood trim that was nice, it's the red that I dont like.

And if Carbon looks cheap and ricy someone should tell Porsche because my 911 had carbon trim too...

 

I like it not a fan of the red wood either. I have a roll of this stuff if anyone else wants this done. ordered it for my car from our vendor and never got around to doing it. my car should be gone this saturday so it will just sit in my basement.

 

I had the same CLS years back and that black wood trim looked pretty good although it was fake plastic wood.

 

Ya they're all more or less the same fake ****... Its a super thin laminated sheet...

 

If you want more wood in your.................. 3gs car interior to be specific as im not too sure where else you'd maybe like some wood inserted.


Its already been figured out.

I think it can go too far... like this...

 

that's some cool looking fake wood, but the whole setup lacks cohesion.

you can't just dabble pieces of wood everywhere around the car. luxury cars need big slabs of wood

 

your trying to compare a luxury sedan to a sports coupe. not the same thing.

 

Looks like a good install.....a little too much CF though.


We converted a customer's car to a piano black interior with some CF accents. Came out nice.

 

nice job with the install. Thought about doing that on my M3 but never got around to it.

I agree with most here, CF doesn't look right on a GS. However, I disagree with the notion that more wood equals more luxury. too much wood can ruin an interior. I've seen far too many Lexus GS with add on wood trims and it just makes the car look like *****.

 

i agree about the big slabs...


can anyone here read japenese? from what i remember these are supposed to be real wood veneer peices.

im doing some converting of currency and these prices are not cheap, the most expensive piece is $2,000, they better be real!
