My preference is for things to be as close to factory as possible. Ideally this includes optional extras the car received and what not. However, I did just add an armrest to my center console that it didn't have originally.

As jrsmitchell pointed out, when it comes time to sell (I think you are currently selling still?) the buyer will likely be mostly concerned with the car being complete at presentable. So if you go with the wood, do it right.

Is the peeling vinyl not repairable? I have the wood trim on my car and with the age it's all cracking and falling apart. It's expensive to replace and you can't just take it off since there are holes in the panels to hold the wood trim. If I remove it, I have to find all replacement door panels and shifter surround
