No wood dash in a Vette. I had a wood wheel, and a wood shift **** on my 75 auto, wish they had them for the C5. I still have the wheel, its about 1 in. smaller in dia. which made a big difference. They were great, set off the whole int.

Carbon fiber is ok, if it's real and thin enough that it doesn't look like an overlay.
No wood in modern sports cars, especially the Vette please!

Wood would not be my cup of tea.
Brushed Aluminum or Carbon Fiber might look good, depending on how much you use.
That Caravaggio leather middle console looks great!

CHEEESY???????
I dont like ANYTHING!!!!!!! As is MY perogative as a middle age balding fat guy!!!!!
However,......I did see the "burle" wood dash kit you are talking about and It looked,
.....right on! It was beautifull
and remember, I dont like "NUTHEN" I think your getting a whole lot of feed back from people who just dont like the sound of them, and I agree with that

You know...most dash kits I've seen I don't like. With that said, it is something I forgot to mention as one of the things I don't like on a Corvette.
