YUCKO !!!!!! :(

I think 1 of the bigest eye catching things of this car is the silver running down the center and this picture ( from a dealer) ruined it. they even put it on the doors where the controls for the windows and door locks are.

i think Earl Stewart should fire someone for this.

Hey Shoe, that is exactly what I was going to do to my Solara. Exccept I was going to do mine in the OEM carbon fibre like material for the sport. I love the wood. Thanks for the pic. BTW, how's that spoiler coming? :lol: Also, that tinted part on the bottom I've seen on 04 SLE's. We have it on our Sport models, but doesn't show up since we have black gauges. Makes sense right? We get the black plain gauages in the sport and the luxury models get the sporty white faces. Go figure.

Very bad taste. Way too much fake wood. I too love the silver center.

I hate aftermarket wood kits. Always way too much wood.

SHOE: Nothing weird here, my instruments look exactly the same as these in the picture.

Oh, and I can't stand this fake stick-on wood trim either!

But but i didn't use the whole kit. i used 7 piece of the 36 piece set. However i didn't do the wood trim around the power window thing. but on the engine 1.5 it doesn't look as bad as the gen 2.

My interior is almost done. Getting my 2 tone leather installed the next coming weekend and some other interior parts. so ill get pics. Alot of the pictures on my cardomain hasn't been updated but after Oct 3rd you will see all new pics.

Everyone's got different taste..that may not be my cup of tea, but then again I don't think it looks all that bad either. I remember gen 3 camry's...now those had BAD BAD wood simulation overlays.

Not a bad match, but should've left it alone.
