Ok call me crazy but I would like to see what the 500 would look like with a natural wood in place of the body coloured trim. I'm trying to picture what it would look like.

You sir, are crazy,lol. Try this, not exactly what you're saying, but close.

I'm personally on a quest for wood paneling.

Since you asked...let's put it this way:

I have a friend that will be doing some hydrographics. He just did his 300m looks incredible. View attachment 566

He can do any type as long there is a film for it. I am getting the Carbon Fiber done on mine next week

 

[phattbam]

i'd do brushed aluminum if possible to shape it to the curves.

 

[MrFlippant]

Real wood? Sure.
Fake wood? Definitely not.

 

[Azzurro]

I've seen a few fake wood kits, but I'm talking real wood. Like go cut down a tree, shape it, stain it and throw it on.

After reading your original post, I envisioned you driving out to Algonquin Park, pulling a chainsaw out of Blue, and sitting over the stump with carving knife in hand underneath the moonlight swearing you'll get this done. Accurate?

not my bag but as long as you <3 it

I could see it with a hinge on the bottom like the old sports cars. That should be to replace the body paint piece on the dash, which I don't think some people understood.

Looks like you can get them here starting about 200 bucks, looks like wood, they do have some real wood options:
