Wood Trim
My 1997 A4 2.8 Quattro has the optional extra wallnut / wood trim. Thsi is fine i guess if you are a middle / late aged man and enjoy this kind of thing.
I am 25 though, and i love the car, but this is the only thing I hate about it. I noticed a lot of it seems to be just stuck ontop of the standard carbon look trim. Can i safely remove it, or is ther ea good risk I will cause damage ? whats the best way to remove it ? which parts can i remove ? all of it, or just the long pieces, the part around the AC controlls and stereo dont seem to be stuck on top of carbon trim like the rest of it is. Any advice appreciated. Thanks |
RE: Wood Trim
can we get pics?!? it shouldnt be covering cf trim or it'd be aftermarket... I love the woodgrain in my car and I am only 21.... different people have different tastes, but I think it adds a nice little touch to the interior.

RE: Wood Trim
i think ur wood layer on ur trim is peeling then casue its just a thin covering of wood, i belive
im not a fan of wood trim i like the aluminum trim i have but i rather have carbon fiber i like the sporty look i guess |
RE: Wood Trim
its actualy quite thick stuff, its not peeling, but you cna see the carbon fibre trim kind of own the side of it. Ile post photos in a couple of hour sile take them when i take my mrs to work
1 more quick wuestion in the meantime. How di I set the digital clock on the DIS ? I figured out the analogue clock, but no clue on the digital one. Thanks |
RE: Wood Trim

RE: Wood Trim
its a trim kit. they are adhesive backed pieces of material that were put over the stock pieces. And that material is not cf it is some silver material. I believ to get it off you would have to pull the oem pieces off and pretty much go throught the same steps as debadging , no fun if you want a different lok when your done with that try this. they overlay the whole piece http://www.exoticwooddash.com/coating.asp

RE: Wood Trim
Its definately aftermarket, I have woodgrain in my car, except it doesn't go over the ashtray, and thats how I could tell in your pictures, you can see it sticking out from the ashtray.
