I'm not overly keen on wood !
Reminds me of what being trapped inside a coffin would be like.
Alright if you are a Goth I suppose or as will said if you are over retirement age ?

Depends on what type of interior your LR has. IMHO Beige Leather is great with the Walnut/wood trim, and the dull black leather is enhanced by Piano Black trim.
I would'nt personally have it the other way round, but then again I am a wearer of Piano Black/Black Leather anyway

I had walnut in my D3 HSE ,when I first saw it I nearly dismissed buying the car,I disliked it so much I even asked the stealer how much it would cost to have it removed ,but then I ended up loving the look of it,each to their own

I like the straight grain wood personally! Each to their own, none of it looks unpleasant at all. I could live with any!
I suppose whatever sort of colour or texture it is there will some form of dirt that shows on it!.A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill. Stay Alive - KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE.
In an old rover P5 or Jag, then great. Not on a sharp modern-styled D3/4 though!
IMHO

Interior trim
Hi
Just get someone to paint it and you can have it any colour you want or get someone to vinyl wrap it that would be a bit different
cheers

I thank you all especially Will for that mental picture....
Black on black on black, so it looks like more black for me...
Next question.....is there a direct on / off replacement or a stick on jobbie...
