No. You're not having a flash back! I saved this early post so I could
get
back to you when my Teak dash came in from TRF.
Well, it came today and I am totally satisfied! The color of the teak
vener
is a much better match with the original French Walnut than the standard
walnut being used by the big three. The grain isn't as dramatic but it
still looks great.
With the cost being the same as the American walnut, I would highly
recommend
going with the teak since the color is so much closer to original.
