Switch trim from alu to matte walnut?

Ditto on that one, I feel the same way.. However my trim in my 07 Acura TL-S is way better than this F Sport

Edit: Looks like there is approx 5cm (50mm) space. So it should fit with some special modifications. It would definitely be an interesting concept to try.

Clock face on the Lexus measures 44mm, so I suspect it would work pretty well. Main thing is now to wait for some used Moto 360s to pop up. I'll probably do this eventually - although I am in a debate about whether I may end up getting a GS F and should save my modding for that.

Don't know if anybody saw this, but Sewell now offers a matte walnut kit to replace all the interior trim.
Price? With CL discount, $3,706.59. Thats a great deal seeing that MSRP is over $6k:

I said good deal relative to the MSRP LOL. I would never, ever consider doing such a thing!

And that's with the CL discount already.

Yeah, it is way too much. Which is why I am looking for someone who wants to trade. Happy to pay the labor to remove and install, but for that kind of money, you could literally go to a woodcrafter and have them hand-craft pieces with exotic hardwood and have a more "bespoke" interior.

I used to share the same sentiments about the aluminum trim before I bought the car, I hated the fact that I couldn't get an F-Sport with the wood trim. But I got the F-Sport anyways, mostly because of the suspension and driving dynamics. After the first week or so the aluminum really grew on me and now I think it looks nicer with my flaxen interior than the wood would have.
Now what would look amazing IMO is the glossy blackwood trim that comes in the LS in my GS F-Sport ...

The wood trim in the GS Luxury is very close to the blackwood trim that comes in the LS...

Its the middle 3. First three are the base trim, last 2 are the F Sport.
