interior goodies

sup everyone

i have beige interior w/ leather seats, now here's my question:
carbon fiber or wood trim? which one will look better without being ricey?
i'll try to post pics of my interior for u guys to get a good idea how it will look like

wood = luxury sedan look, old man look
carbon fiber = race/sport look (but i have a 4 door ) beige interior

any suggestions will make me a happy man!
thanks!

both will look ricey imo. If you do go for carbon fiber, use the real deal, not that cheap tacked on crap

i'd paint it the same color as the outside of your car. I have black interior/red exterior, and I painted all my trim (including the top of the center console, the one that goes inbetween the seats) red to match the outside, and it looks really nice. I've had nothing but complements from everyone who's seen it.
