help me choose once again

[jonbearsmt 919]

im shopping for a wood shade that will need to match my car as is...

my box is wood.

and my car has wood grain , as you can see here my factory wood and my wood grain kit is off a bit, i can change the bottom to match the top, and the outside, if i get the correct shade.

so what matchs ...

mahogany

or dark burl

The dark burl pattern matches better, but is it a little too red?

[onebadmonte 235]

The mahogany grain matches you box but it seems a bit reddish. Maybe you can add a little red tint to some polyclear and give the box another coat so they'll match.

i agree it seems to be a bit too red.

humm....

I went to their website, the burlwood honey looks closer to your dash.

[jonbearsmt 919]

i thought the honey was too light

Are you married to that company? There has got to be someone out there with the "perfect" match.

no they are the cheapest, i have looked at others, ill try to post some pics of theirs

what if i did a blackwood,

then i would change all the trim inside to black wood aswell.

[dem beats 1,223]

John, I would just change all of it to the same burl. For your goals it seems to make the most sense.

I personally hate the black/grey/charcoal stained woods.

Eventually you might want to even veneer the box. It would be nice if every little detail matched.

If it were me I would go with a less red burl over e'rething.

[Shogen 325]

From my monitor honey seems about right.

[SS Teacher 177]

I like the honey, not a fan of the charcoal or gray woods. The reds are alright.

[ricksi30 923]

The Dark Burlwood looks like what I have.

[jonbearsmt 919]

No honey dont look right or any of the other ones.

well these are the options!

[pmureika 31]

3m seems to have better choices.

[SS Teacher 177]

Don't listen to pmureika, he's old and his eyes probably don't work right anymore. You want honey...h o n e y, mmmmhhhh honey.

[jonbearsmt 919]

3m seems to have better choices.

the 3M cuts there shit weird, they have a 4 feet by 10000000 feet roll and the wood grain runs the wrong way .. it runs side to side along the 4 foot......

this company makes there grain long long ways... so i can get a 20 foot run and the grain runs along
