Looks great. By chance did you notice if there were different patterns to choose from, or is wood grain the only option?

wooddashexperts.com has a lot of different syles you can choose from. 38 different ones to be exact. and its just 3M adhesive so its very easy to install.

I'm not into the wood grain..I like the brushed aluminum look. The stock set-up looks nice when cleaned & shined.

Wow! I LIKE IT!!! Very Nice! I've been planning on installing a wood grain kit as well. From reading tons of threads on these different kits I already know member in this forum love the wood look while others hate it with a passion. Oh well... to each his own.

A co worker of mine installed the Carbon Fiber kit in his Altima. While it looks okay, I felt it was to sterile, plastic looking. I felt it made the car appear cheaper... but that my opinion. My previous car was an Acura that I paid $27K for many years ago. It had wood grain trim but it was all fake wood (i.e., plastic). Nevertheless I liked the way it made the car feel. (almost more comfortable if you will)

In reading your replies I determined you purchased your kit from wooddashexperts.com. Based on the pics it appears you went for the 66 piece kit.

However... what I would like to know is what "material Type / Color" did you get (the one shown in your photos) As you know the Rogue kits from Wooddashexperts come in Eleven (11) different "Synthetic" Woods and Six (6) "Real" Woods.

QUESTIONS: What kit number did you order? (e.g. NNRE08B ? ) What Material Type did you select? (e.g, RMBW? SMBW? etc.)What is the interior color of your Rogue. (Looks like it might be black)

If you don't mind... I have to ask... Do the outside edges of each piece feather nicely, thus covering the edges outer edges of the original trim piece you covered up? In other words do the pieces from the kit look factory installed... (no detectable edges) or do they give the appearance of stick-on overlays. The reason for asking is I've ready forum post from people saying the exposed edges were bad on some of the trim pieces. Some had white edges that had to be blackened with a permanent market. Others had thick unfinished edges. My weeks of research have concluded that the only two dash kits worth getting are either B&I or Sherwood. Since Wooddashexperts sells the B&I line I would like to know you honest opinion. A first hand review of quality and fitment.

some of the pieces give the look of stickons and arent really put on too great while other pieces cover the whole thing and u really cant tell. for example the pieces around the door lock button and the window buttons show the factory trim as the that covers the radio and the air vents dont show barely any at all. and it also depends how patient you are when installing if u have the time to sit there and get all the pieces exactly right im sure it will look amazing. and about the fact that its plastic or not, im pretty sure its plastic. it was kind of a gift so i really dont know like the exact specifics on it but 95% of all cars use plastic stick on wood grain anyway bc its more efficient to make and install. either way it looks really good if done right.

P.S if i had to pick the closest color to mine i would say the walnut burl (SWBW) on the wooddash.com site and yes my interior is black
