Best quality wood grain applique

Hello all,

I would like opinions on the best company to buy the wood grain applique for the bezel and glove box door as a kit? I would like something that somewhat matches the factory style but the quality is the most important. I do not want this peeling off.

Let me know and thank you in advance,
Tom

Re: Best quality wood grain applique

I bought mine from classic parts but doesn't match exactly. I haven't installed yet but I should get to it this week. I don't know why someone can't make one to match original. That would be awesome if they did

Thank you Jeff.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with "Cheyenne Superman"? I understand that he is the man to speak with regarding wood grain bezel and glove box doors.

Thank you,
Tom

Re: Best quality wood grain applique

I've noticed Brothers makes a point that theirs are die cut. Not sure if that makes a difference or not. I know you had a bad experience with their bezels (I haven't with mine, knock on woodgrain lol), but it might be worth checking on

Thank you AJ,

Not a bad experience with there product, just there communication skills when parts are back ordered. Die cut now is like free internet at the hotel. Everyone has it. What I am most concerned with is quality and that the applique does not peel up in a month after it is applied. This is for a customer who is paying a lot of money to get it right.

I am open to all suggestions.
Thank you again,
Tom
