Interior trim wrap or replacement

Not a big fan of the brown wood trim inside, anybody try wrapping it or replacing the wood?

Would prefer something metallic or carbon fiber finish. Mine Is a 2014 coupe

I love the walnut dash, doors, console, and steering wheel trim in my car; in fact, I refused to even look at a model with any other trim option.

I feel the same way . . . the wood steering wheel is beautiful, but now that it's winter, I do miss a heated steering wheel.

The woods reminds me of a 70s trailer home not in the best of shape. Not the cool ones by air stream. A simple flat black would be much nicer.

Completely different model but I couldn't stand the Burled Walnut trim in my 2003 E500 either.
Wrapped it with 3M 1080 Brushed Black Metallic.

My wood is heavily faded and considered wrapping as an option. I really like the brushed aluminum look and thinking about trying to replicate what was on my GS F Sport.

I also found a full set black wood interior trim for sale online but it is pretty pricey. Also not a DIYer so wrapping would need some time.

Bahnstormer I almost hate to ask, but how difficult was that to wrap all your trim Pieces?

I removed all trim pieces to wrap them and followed a few DIY threads.
On a scale from one to ten with ten being the hardest I'd give it about a 6.5.
The most difficult piece for sure was the CD changer.
