Wood interior!

I've had these wood grain overlays in my truck for a long time but just recently bought a real camera that takes decent pictures. I thought I'd share what it looks like for the benefit of those who would like to do this, and also because I have nothing better to do.

That looks good! Where'd you get 'em?

And a fellow New Yorker!

Do they make a 7-piece kit for Expeditions/Supercrews?

I've seen 7 piece kits for the f-150's, I imagine you can get them for other ones.

It's just an overlay kit? The wood interior is held on by 3m tape?

It looks good. I wouldnt put it in my truck as the woodgrain isnt my style, but it is your truck, and it looks good. An original idea, too!

I like it. Cost? Some of my areas that these cover are looking worn so a cover up would make a big impact. Nice set up IMHO.

I bought this kit about a year ago on e-bay from someone that decided to sell his truck, I think it was $50 or $60. I forgot how expensive this stuff is..I went on e-bay just now and they're getting more than $200 just for the flat trim pieces, I imagine the molded trim like I have is much more.

I was considering black trim before I bought this kit, but I like the look of wood. Do you have any pictures of the black trim? I didn't see any in your pictures.

I've been wanting to do the same, but with carbon fiber. Just afraid the 3M adhesive tape will loosen up on the hot days.

I like it! I've been wanting to do the same, but haven't wanted to spend the money! After seeing some good pictures I may have to now!
