I just finish installing wood kit I bought from Ebay. It made the car look a lot more luxurious for sure, there are some flaws with the aftermarket kits tho and if I had to do it all over again I would buy Honda oem wood kit instead and then find a matching aftermarket set to finish off the rest of the area. The only thing I didn't like about this kit is it does not cover the center consel fully and it left a bit of gaps around it, some people like that look but I don't.

The good :
Lots of wood finish to choose from and they all look good
Great coverage
Lots of wood for the $

Bad:
Fit is not that great, it does not cover a lot of the gaps
Installation may be hard on certain parts of the dash

The CR-V tag makes it look cheap. It is the dash of the car; not the tailgate. You are driving it; not following it, you should not need to be reminded of what it is. Just an opinion...

Honda oem kit fits so much better. I like how you went with aluminum trim kit to finish it, this way you won't have to worry about matching the wood. I actually liked the CRV logo on the dash a lot. Funny thing is I debaged the rear for a cleaner look, so I guess I like the interior busy and the exterior the opposite. :)

I have some extra pc's from a sherwood dash kit you might be interested in. Heres the link to the thread. The color you have looks the same as the sherwood lavishwood. In fact the kit looks the same. Did you leave pc's off?

Yeah I left off a lot of pieces. I simply like the way this looks versus installing all of the included pieces.

What all season mats are those?

Wow, when you said the "interior got all woody," I thought you meant the back seats had been folded up and something else "woody" was used...

That looks Awsome! Does anyone know if the OEM wood trim kit covers the whole dash or just the faceplate where the radio/CD player is?
