Default Any Sources For Custom Fabricated Trim

Hey I own a Jaguar xk8 2001 coupe

I'd like to know if anyone knows a company or someone who makes custom interior prices to replace the wood in the Jaguar xk8. I don't want to wrap it or get anything used and I'm willing to pay for a custom fabrication from a reputable source. Anything is worth considering thanks! Just need something more durable for my taste than paint or wrap.

What material are you looking for? If you’re looking to replace, faded, or cracked wood, Saul from British Autowoods has been highly recommended by other forum members.

If you’re looking to ditch wood, then I think you would be the first to want to do that w/o using a wrap.

Pretty much that's the reason for change, it's faded and cracked. And I rather go the way of replacing them completely with something new after getting the ones I had done and then fading again eventually.(Done by a company that's local in USA where I reside)

If said material was a new cut wood like walnut or something like carbon that's durable I wouldn't mind. I'm just looking for options and or suppliers.

Specifically I was thinking some grey and black wood finish or maybe even chrome and change my steering wheel out to the all black leather version from the x308 which I just got for a deal on eBay.

Vivvid vinyl does make some very high quality interior wrap that is resistant to scratching which will run you around $70. I would try Facebook marketplace and look for someone who does custom carbon fiber, or flocking. It will be harder as they will have to make a mold of the panels, I doubt anyone has molds of these panels aready. My guess is about $700 for all panels to be redone, minus installation (based on a friend who has had this done to his Lexus- molds already available). Let us know if you find someone!

Hey just updating on my research! Find this website thanks to a follow member of the Jaguar community where they sell wood and other peices made for our jags.

https://www.myrtleltd.com/jaguar-dai...52FXK%252FX150

Still checking out the site but thought I'd add the link before I forget xp

OC, I’m not 100% certain if the X308 steering wheel is a drop in replacement for the X100. I believe it’s due to the airbag mounting points that differ between the two.

As @giandanielxk8 mentioned Saul at British Autowood - https://britishautowood.com/ does excellent work. Another option is looking into hydro dipping your existing trim - not sure if you have anyone local that does this but it is pretty cool some of the things they can do including carbon fiber
