Where can I get the stick on wood, I'm trying to make a center console cupholder for my car but it looks out of place bare. I was looking for some stick on wood that could blend with the original wood trim and make it look more like it belongs there.
This isn't my car, but thats the exact pattern wood trim I have in my car.

select products is the first thing that came to my mind for something like this but looking around their site real quick (www.selectproducts.com) i didnt find much wood. you can try calling them, theyre usually really good, or others can chime in

Look into laminates.

I'm gonna check Lowes tomorrow for wooden laminates that they use for wooden floors, do you think this will work? I checked select products but they don't have a finish that matches my wood pattern.

No, you want laminates like they use for countertops, etc. It's very thin, and a million different patterns...but you'll probably have to buy a large quanity. You trim it with a razor blade or router and use spray adhesive to secure it.

The old trim is factory and my dad spent alot of money replacing it because it cracked so I think i'm gonna keep it in. I just wanted a nice cupholder in the middle instead of using the ones that hook onto the A/C vents.
