My real wood kit on my G never split or crack whatsoever, and that was 3 years after I installed it.
Oh, how much were the payments on the Gallardo, I might be interested.

Might this be similar to what they do? ExoticDash

I'll wait until I've driven my new G for a few weeks, then I'll decide if I want to try to find a good quality aftermarket wood trim kit.
Biased or not, everyone's got their opinion and I certainly appreciate your comments.

After a month with my newborn I may want to donate her as well!! Just Joking!

I would never own one... That being said, I do like how the wood darkens up the interior but it doesn't seem to suit the graphite color.
Chrome looks kind of neat, but I like the low key approach... black
Thanks for posting those!.

I think it will replace my rosewood nicely!!
I really like my rosewood trim. I think what I like the most is the low gloss finish. The Washi actually looks better when you are told it's supposed to emulate Japanese paper. I think the Washi looks better on the sport, but it really depends on your color choice. I think the fiddle back Rosewood veneer is beautiful and would probably have bought the Sport if it came in Rosewood....and at the time I could get nothing off the retail price, due to supply.
The high gloss dark wood would look nice on a Tan interior with Garnet Ember or Black exterior.
