Does anyone know of any companies that sell quality wood dash kits? I've already found a few that offer polyurathane coated kits and free shipping. But, i haven't been able to find any reviews anywhere. Ayyone have experience or know of any sites that have discussions/reviews on dash kits?
 
After alot of research, i found that most dash merchants lead back to specific manufactures. Most online and eBay merchants don't list their manufacturer, and even claim to produce their kits in house. But, based on similar diagrams, most dash companies lead back to:



High Quality:



http://www.woodcorp.com/



http://www.sherwooddash.com/ (seems to be OEM for many companies)



http://www.bitrim.com/





Mid Quality:



http://www.aaaexoticwood.com/



Mid-Low:



http://alkaplus.com/



Anyone looking should be able to match up diagrams to be able to compare prices. I found good deals on sherwood dashes at wooddash.com
 
I recently ordered a dash kit from exoticwooddash.com and was very dis-satisfied. The kit is made by BI trim. The graining does not match the OEM wood nor does the color and it is quite noticeable in the sunlight. Their attitude when I called was "Did you order the right color?" There is only one color in their selection for California walnut and that is exactly what I ordered. The strange thing is that the kit included pieces for both the standard and ultra luxury Lexus and both had the same color and graining (or lack thereof). The wood trim in the 2 models is distinctly different with the ultra having more grain and a darker color. The color furnished by them will not match either of the OEM trims. It appears that their philosophy is one size/color fits all even though it matches nothing.

Buyer beware.
