Wood grain is out of fashion in my opinion, look at a lot of new high end cars, there's more and more carbon fibre creeping into the interiors. Personally I prefer it, fake wood just doesn't do it for me - now those old Rolls with the real wood dashes, that's the s**t.
Personally, I really like the concept of what's been done, but I don't like the blue - would of gone a grey/black myself, reckon it would better match the rest of the interior.

I LIKE IT!!!!!

Really good to see someone doing things out of the box. Not sure if I would pay that much, but if you are happy with it then excellent.

Wood grain is more of a elegant look, carbon fiber is more the race/sporty look, I would not say wood grain is outdated, sorry im kind of bias as I love wood grain :)

I've actually always wanted to see someone replace the veneer stuff in a ef/el fairmont ghia with real wood just for something different.
