Do you want me to be honest? Well I will.
It looks like carbon wallpaper, from your photos. There also seems to be a bit of a mess in centre cubby.

Supose it looks better with the whole interior fitted. Although my dad used to have a 99 elegance (loaded), and the interior looked more classy, with the BURR WALNUT. Way nicer than his earlier 94 elegance one.

I guess growing up with Mercs since the late 70's, a carbon dash in a merc always looked wrong - like plastic. I couldn't even get used to the black wood in the avant garde, I just like the walnut - clean it with a decent furniture polish and it always looks classy. Shame as the avantgarde looks better from the outside. I'd just like one with a walnut dash!
I'll go get my pipe and slippers....

woodlook kits
Euro car parts used to sell conversion trim kits for various older models they were called "woodlook kits" but included aluminium and carbon fibre "looks" also. you wont find them in the catalogue best to phone head office in Wembley 02089565000 for availability. Cant comment on their quality. If you do go ahead remember this might affect the resale value later. so best to keep the old trim.
