Well, it does look a little different than I thought it wood, er, WOULD. I'm hoping all of the polished metal bezels will blend it all in more, and my dash is a shale color, not nearly as dark as your black dash, but I think it would all look better if the console housing was covered, too. I've seen the Carbon Fiber job some guys have done on the console housing and it really ties all those other trim pieces in together. I also ordered polished billet radio & AC/heater *****, maybe I should put all the metal stuff on before ordering the wood, huh? Thanks for the display/tip! I found a place that has real wood, and carbon fiber, as well as loads of different colors and patterns: http://www.vetteworksintl.com/97-2004dashkits.html and scroll down. It's hard to make tasty improvements!
