Im thinking bout doin a lil interior swap n I cant find where i can get the wood grain interior like the area round the shift ****, ashtray n the window master switches.

 

wood grain is for old people

 

ebay sells wood grain kits. you just peel off the adhesive and stick em on. look up wood grain kit maxima on ebay.

 

I could try to convince my sister to trade her woodgrain from her 02 GLE if you have the brushed metal type that's in the SE...

 

and if you do decide to get it...spend more for the molded kits...the flat kits look like @ss

 

geezers FTL why not go with the titanium look?

 

I did an interior swap into my 02 GLE from tan/wood -> 03 Black/Titanium. When it came time to switch the window controls, everything was great until I got to the pass side. For some reason, the window controls fro mthe 03 wouldnt work on that 1 window. I "temporarily" put the wood back in with the black interior...and it looks fantastic. It definitely makes it feel a litle more classy instead of sporty like the metal finish gives. I wouldnt have it any other way.

 

I've seen those installed they look cheesy. If its not done right it looks terrible.

R the controls the same on 02s n 03s?

 

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING BUT THE OEM PARTS! Those stick on kits are GARBAGE!

With that said, I like the wood grain myself. It's fake but so is the other finish that is supposed to be a metallic finish but it's a better simulation than the painted grey finish.

I have the flat kit and I like it...

Granted I have a Sterling Mist GLE w/matching wheel. If the interior was black then thats a different story, brushed alum all day!

Another option would be color matching the radio/AC/door handles/moldings..

 

haha you WANT wood grain???! You mean you actually want to change the good original look to wood grain?? I think you just blew my mind...

 

Not adding aftermarket woodgrain, but switching to oem woodgrain pieces that came standard on GLE's makes the car look nicer. It does. My SE came with grey trimming and I did a wood grain interior conversion and it looks much nicer on my black interior!

 

That's wut I want oem woodgrain from a gle where can I get It

 

I love woodgrain, but it has to be done right, the adhesive types are cheap looking and nobody wants that. my GLE came with slight woodgrain accents and it looks great against the black interior.

 

When I bought mine a couple months back it had one of thos stupid kits on it it was like a seafoam green it was nasty looking. I took that off right away. and im ticked now cause it took off some of the color on the plastic pieces.

GRRRRR

I would get the full molded one and every thing.

My '97 Altima had the woodgrain with tan interior.......VOMIT. But, it was a work car, so I dealt with it. My dad's '00 Max GLE had the woodgrain with tan leather, but he's 64 years old, so he had an excuse. C'mon man, woodgrain???? It's your car and all, but...........

Should be, but if you can, post a picture of yours, and I'll post a picture of mine if I remember...

and I agree with most, woodgrain is terrible.

 

...if you are old

ive had both with black interior (00 GLE and 02 SE) and the silver is so much better

 

I would gladly trade you my wood grain for your silver pieces but my car is an 02 so Im not sure it would work I believe I tried this with another member and he ran into the same problem listed above.

 

Only looking to trade if the car is an 03 cuz I dont wanna have any problems. Can I buy these pieces anywhere Ive searched but couldnt find anything.

 

^^correct me if I'm wrong but can't you remove the trim from the window switches and only replace the trim rather then the full switch and cover/trim???


OP, I have the full oem wood grain kit that i am trying to get rid of of. my car is an auto with. I am looking for the Titanium pieces as we speak. If you're really interested we could work something out.

 

^^I dont have titanium mines is black
