Beauty Rocket!!! Fall is such a great time for car pics. I see we both have the same interior color, the best! Lets keep ours nice until Carlisle in June, heh?

Awesome, looks just like mine did when I first picked it up 2 summers ago now....only diff, gold emblems.
Oh and did your car come with the special aftermarket dashkit? Or did you add it?

 no, jim, i added the aftermarket dash kit myself recently.....i just think a car that was originally sticker priced at over 37,000 dollars should have had a" bit more "walnut burl trim on the dash than it did, like the lexus and the jaguar do, so when i saw the dash kit, i couldnt resist it...it really gives the interior even more of a "luxury feel"

The dash looks great - where did you get the kit?
Were there any problems putting it on?
Christmas is coming and I want to buy the car something. ;D

Aside from the Sunroof, it is identical to ours. It looks awesome!!!!!
And the trim, yeah it adds a touch of class.

The car looks great! It' too bad that trim doesn't cover the climate controls.

actually, omegaic, there is a piece that comes with the kit that does go over the climate controls....i just wasnt sure how good it would look there and was afraid it might obscure the controls, even though it has tiny holes so you can see the lights on the climate controls...maybe i will go ahead and put it on dred98, it was very easy to install...it was already pre cut to fit the dash....it comes with a sticky adhesive backing already on it and you just apply it over the flat black plastic on the dash and then heat it with a blow dryer to help it stick...it was kind of expensive, about $180....i will get you the name of the company that has it

That's the price that www.exoticwooddash.com charges, so it's probably from them. Olds was a bit mean with the wood and should have put more in the car. It really looks good - I'll have to leave little pictures around the house and see if Mrs. Santa notices ;D |
