Why is wood option so hard to find?

Over glossy wood can look fake, the Satin finish brings the wood grain and texture out more.

One of the other cars I came close to buying was the IS350. Lexus uses a real bird's eye maple, but it looks and feels like plastic due to the amount of gloss.
As for aftermarkets, everything my dealer offered just sat on top of the Washi and the washi could be seen in some areas.... poor fit and finish.
I like my wood trim to be like wood, not plastic.
I know this is a personal preference, but I like it just the way it is.

Good afternoon Mike.... what you offer goes on top of the current Washi Trim or does one remove the Washi Trim and add a whole new piece in wood trim? I have checked with my local dealer and they referred me to an outside vendor they deal with, but come to my surprise its just a stick on item with a 3M backing, so in my opinion it will not have that flush (original look) fit...
Do you have pics of what you have to offer and at what price?
Thanks for your time on this...

Hi Mike thanks for the quick reply.... dammm I'm in S.FL it will be a long drive to get to Cali...hahahaha...
The wood trim that you are offering is what I am looking for, complete replacement.... You wouldn't happen to know of any dealership or shops in S.FL that does what you guys do up in Cali?
PS... how much is the total cost for this wood trim?

The wood option from Infiniti, factory installed, is $400.
