maybe some one was a tight arse and got a second hand piece from the wreckers and said “close enough”

So this is from where? And that strip under the passenger airbag could be an indication that it’s been deployed. But I’m lost here ...

Are those 4 different shades? Or is it the picture that makes it look like this?
I would cover it anyway, wood looks terrible in most cars in my opinion

I think it’s just the light. I think the bottom just looks bad because all the pieces are angle slightly different, which makes a huge difference on how the light reflects off it.

I noticed this the other day when all of my car except the front bumper looked pink. Then when I moved I saw it was just the light wasn’t hitting the bumper the same.

The wood on the steering wheel, around the shifter, and above the glove box is factory. The rest is the crappy fake stick-on stuff.

I hate angled center stacks so much. All they seem to do is reflect the glare from outside.

They’re a sticker pack. Someone installed one in my ‘04 Grand Prix before I got it.

So classy.

You mean the only option to have modern car options on something older?

As bad as some may look it’s the most cost effective way to get nav, bluetooth, sat radio, usb and aux. Without having to worry about using your phone and getting an expensive ticket.

Yup, bit this xc90's particular interior isn’t executive. I have the same car and also bought a wood wheel on eBay to match

Well the app radio 4 certainly isn’t. Maybe they switched the wheel to maintain the button functionality. God that looks weird though, also what does the pop up screen do now that the factory unit isn’t there.

Unless I was good enough at modifying the code, I would never replace the head unit in a car that has an external screen. Didn’t have to worry about that in my 06 taco

It’s a Volvo. If you’re dumb enough to like them, you’re probably dumb enough not to notice the inconsistencies.
