Default Has anyone changed their dash trim?

Has anyone changed up their dash trim...meaning the wood trim to another color or pattern? I was never really a fan of wood/fake wood trim. I was wondering if anyone has changed theirs up. I was thinking of having my trim done with hydrographics.

first of all, those are real wood overlay

second, the steering wheel is probably biggest problem?

i found a solution for the steering wheel. i found a company that will recover and finish the wheel in another color while keeping the heated feature. the leather over the years has gotten that shiney warn in finish. as for the wood being real...not all of it is. thats why i said wood/fake wood. either way i want to change that up. if mine was equiped with that grey looking trim i wouldnt even look into changing it.

just curious, which? as far as i know LS (as well as other models) are all real wood overlay. if you pop the shift plate and see plastic underneath and say it's not real wood, that's wrong. they are all thin pieces of wood on top of the plastic trims. just want to set the record straight
