Wood Kits
Has anyone purchased an additional factory match wood kit for their GX? I really think the center console and window switches would look much better with some wood trim, the bezel around the radio really doesn't bother me. I was just curious if anyone on here has done this?

Can you buy less than the whole kit- I could see getting a few pieces, but the whole kit looks pretty tacky! I could see just the window switches and center console middle.

Yeah, I agree with you, the trim pieces around the radio and tape player are too much. I think window switches and center console at most.

My biggest concern about a project like this would be the color match. Lexus makes a big deal out of the fact that all of the wood trim in a given car is from the same tree so that it has the same color and grain. If one of the pieces is damaged somehow on the assembly line, ALL of the pieces are replaced with a new set.
I do agree that a little more wood is nicer in the GX; the factory should have put more in.

I have a Joshua Tree wood kit on my RX300, but some of the pieces I got weren't even cut right and even some of the wood pieces did not look good compared to the original wood. In the end, I only ended up keeping certain pieces and ditching others.
