    I might add: the center console is a thick wood veneer on an aluminum substrate and is very nicely made. It does not come with the plastic panel underneath. One must use double sided tape such as the 3M urethane foam tape to stick it on top of the existing panel. Same thing for the dash and door trim pieces. They are not replacement pieces for a car which already has wood trim. They are made to stick onto the dash and door sections with double sided tape.

    I bought the complete set for cheap on ebay a year or more ago just for the console panel and never used the rest of the pieces.

    Isn't it just like a cheap crappy looking sticker?

    Actually, they're not decals. They are a thick real burled walnut veneer on a 1/16" thick aluminum backing plate, contoured to fit exactly on the dash and door panels. Quality, they're equally as nice as the BMW factory wood. They differ in their means of attachment. They are an overlay that must be attached with double sided tape such as the 3M urethane foam tape.

    I spent about the same taking wood panels and 95 style door panels off a junked 5er.

    Anyone installed that kit and has pics?
    "gmannino" asked me for that as he does not have any wood in his car, and that seems to be ideal then.
