There are members here who have kits like this but for wood trim. Keep in mind none of these are real metal nor real wood. They are all plastic and just made to look like said material.

Does anyone have photos or know where I can find pics of Kizashi's with this on?

I suspected for the price it would be faux aluminum/wood. I'm still interested how it looks though.

The trouble is that replacements rarely look better, otherwise the manufacturer would have used them in the first place. The wood effect looks good on certain cars, but horrible on the Kizi. What does suit the car is the graphite effect, so consider that.

Great point - now, where can I get that effect? Trying to remedy my earlier decision to get a tan interior by spicing it up.

I personally like tan interiors and liked the one I had in my green Impreza. Also, it's the exterior color that determines the interior color.
I thought Jono's interior trim kit in the link above looked great with his tan interior. It reminded me of a Benz E350 I once drove with a similar interior trim.

I would have loved the tan leather, unfortunately it was not available in the UK.
