We have a Custom trim carpenter buying one of these for exactly that purpose. He says it will take the better part of a year for him to do it though. He showed me a sample of the wood (can't remember the name of it)when picking out his color and it is going to look SICK! :D

it would look good if done right, but i guess we won't know until someone does it. black or white would probably be the prefered color

You know... normally I would call it retarded too, and on most modern cars it would look like ___.

After seeing the photoshop job though, I am rethinking it. This could actually work on an xB, as long as it's real wood and not that vinyl crap and it's done right. It would cost $1000's to do it right though. No one could ever make a kit good enough to do it up to my standards at least. It would have to be a custom job.

It would have to be on a dark green or burgundy xB to look right too, I think.

I'd love to see one done that way, not slammed or on 19" blingin chrome either

it would look all wrong with the wood. Just with no drop or 1" or less drop and some tasteful 16" rims with a flat finish (no chrome bling-bling)

That would be interesting.... :o

NOOOOOOOO!!!!

Don't do that to a Camo!

Someone grab a saw and a crowbar and help me get that xB out of its Shipping Crate.

That'll appeal to the same crowd that buys a Woody PT and we don't need any Boxes driving 30 in the left lane with the turn signal on...

I think so called "woody" goes better with lighter colors. It will look good on white.

With that said, most of woody mod on modern cars are too fake. PT Cruiser, and even that custom job on Element...

If it's done right, I think it will look really classy.
