Is anyone interested in swapping wood for aluminum interior trim?
I have an Estoril blue 2003 4.6 that I would prefer to have the aluminum "sport" interior instead of the wood. Anybody who is interested in swapping interiors, please let me know! The wood that I have is the "darker" wood.

And by the way, does anyone know how easy or difficult it is to remove the trim pieces?


Thanks!

from what ive looked into the majority of trim removal is easy. the trim on the 3 spoke wheel is the one that seems difficult. (messin with the air bag - Yikes!) check this:

I want the titanium trim also, my light poplar is now cracked in some spots. Any idea on how much the new trim runs??

Come on, who wants to swap me some aluminum/titanium trim pieces for my much more expensive wood trim?!

Do you want to buy my wood trim? I can save you a bundle over OEM prices and mine is in mint condition! Seriously, a new interior trim package costs about $8-900 for the aluminum and close to $1500 for wood.

I'm Interested
What color trim do you have? I am interested in purshacing or trading for the Dark Poplar trim. (I currently have the light poplar). I have a 2005 X5 non-sport (so no steering wheel trim). My trim is in perfect condition (crack free).

I have the dark wood, but would prefer the aluminum. Again, mine is in mint condition and if the price is right, maybe I can send it to you and just buy the aluminum trim myself, since it doesn't look like I'll find anyone to trade with - unless I wait a LOOONG time!! haha!
