They make a carbon fiber kit as well, I emailed them a couple of weeks ago. Don't know if I want to go that route yet or not.

3m adhesive wood trim? NO. The only way im putting wood trim in my is350 sport is if I cut down a tree and can find someone who knows how to put that in.

Wood kits NEVER match the Lexus wood. It looks weird. I wouldn't recommend it.

I wanted to buy a kit from SuperiorDash.com. Its a lot more expensive and only has the same pices that comes OEM. But its real wood. The color I wanted was grey Birdseye Maple, which is the color thats on the GS.

But I am afraid of the fitment, If you do get it, send me some pics!

Agreed, the color changes after a while as well. It does not have the factory look/feel/ and quality. Had two kits for prior cars. Removed them both after a while.

Just to let you all know, I once got a kit from them for a Civic and just want to warn everyone that the kits don't fit perfictly it isn't a snug fit. Even though it looked good on the civic, would never do it to my baby IS....

That is rather gross. Adding a bit of wood is a nice touch (as in stock). Too much wood is like wearing demin jeans with a demin jacket and denim shirt, with a denim hat and belt with matching denim Vans shoes, accompanied by a girlfriend that also wore a denim dress with denim cowboy boots. Gross...
