Replaced wood grain trim with gloss black

Adam135 · 03-04-2012, 05:08 PM

My car is Alpine White with the sports package so gloss black trim goes better with the taupe seats and shadowline exterior trim.

Looks good,
where'd you get the gloss black?

looks great! how much for labor to put them in?

Adam135 · 03-04-2012, 08:05 PM

Removing the center console is kind of a pain. It took me about two hours using the DIYs. The dash and doors are easy.

yeah I was contemplating doing it myself but it looks like a pita. wanted to change my silver trim with the same black trim. nice job and good choice!

Looks great! You had the same interior combo that I have. I really like the way the black trim looks with it. Nice job!
