I actually like the wood trim in most cases, but yes, for certain cars it really does not fit in with the car's personality like an ///M car for instance. Black Piano wood trim is very very nice though!!
Here's a thought... Plastidip has a Smoke colour... used it on the boat this weekend and it goes darker as you apply more coats... finish is more a satin to matte...
These colours below all go well with beige. Also Gray Poplar and Bamboo Anthracite have slight brown when in direct sunlight but still black in normal light
