Is it real wood or just a finish.

I think it looks good.

This is what I picture your car as when I see your interior.

But hey it's your car. Do whatever you want to it. Just don't plan on ever being able to sell it as it is.

Wow, that is exactly what I was thinking because my Aunt had a Country Squire or something like that, with wood paneling sides. That was teh first thing I thought of too,

HOWEVER, it is YOUR Corvette and if you like it, that is all that matters. I been wanting to do something with my interior too, I am just afraid I may not like it after I do it.

Congrats, and enjoy your "new interior".

Everyone does Carbon Fiber because it usually looks great. Anyway if you like it thats all that matters. Very unique anyway. This is not going to be good.......

It's a faux finish just like hydrocarbon. It's put on the same way, just painted a different color prior to applying and the pattern on the sticker is different. I guess you could call it hydrowood.


I'm sure there will be folks that like it and folks that don't... different strokes for different folks! Personally, I think you should have gone with their new SKULL pattern.

well to me it's very individualistic. just like carbon fiber, or painting the various parts inside, or adding leather. this one is a little more unique in that we don't see one every day.

I hear ya on being different. If you dig it that's cool. I just don't think it's a good look. But I also don't like the fake carbon fiber either. My center console and pods are painted body color and some peps don't like that. So, I guess it's a good thing that people have different tastes or life would be pretty boring.
