Wood trim, alternatively known as wood fascia, is a fascia made of synthetic or varnished, natural wood, usually found on dashboards of luxury cars. First used in the '80s by Mercedes-Benz, they spread and soon other manufacturers were using them. Wood trim can be made from natural materials like beechwood, maple, walnut, oak, or from synthetic materials.
Famous quotes containing the words wood and/or trim:
“This is the poem of the air,
Slowly in silent syllables recorded;
This is the secret of despair,
Long in its cloudy bosom hoarded,
Now whispered and revealed
To wood and field.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)
“It had not a New England but an Oriental character, reminding us of trim Persian gardens, of Haroun Al-raschid, and the artificial lakes of the East.”
