Wood Door Trim Pieces

[Gangly]

I have an affinity for natural wood surfaces and I am strongly perturbed by the digital grain on the interior door trim pieces.  I am wanting to replace them with the natural wood pieces found on some of the upper trims (Chevrolet and GMC) but I can't find any pictures to go with the names:

 

Geo Jigsaw

Anteak

Savannah Mosaic

Arenite

Nitiride

Hewn Cypress

 

I assume the fake wood print in my LT is the Geo Jigsaw, which I really don't prefer, but I cant find any images on google to match up to the other descriptors.  I would prefer not to make a trip down to the dealership to scope out trucks and VINs, especially considering inventory is so low here and I'm more likely to see 15 WT's than a single Elevation or High Country. 

 

Does anybody have any clue on where I can find a list of the above descriptors with corresponding images?

My 21 Denali says it's real wood open-pore ash wood.

 

I don't believe the names you listed are all wood trim. I am under the impression there is the real wood trim and the synthetic wood looking trim. The rest are different, as in carbon fiber looking and so on.

You are correct, they are all different types of wood and composites.  I was posting all of them hoping that someone could pick out the real wood ones

 

Thanks for the lead on your Denali, I'll check out Open Poor Ash Wood and see what I can find.

I don't think its actual wood, even on the Denali. I read that also and assumed it was, but if you remove those accent pieces...they are plastic. if it is real wood it must be a paper thin veneer bonded to a plastic piece, but I looked very closely inspecting for a seam that would indicate as such, I could not find anything. as far as I can tell those pieces are plastic fake wood.

I actually looked into whether I could get a real wood veneer and apply it over top of the plastic piece, but didn't get too far with the research. I wasn't sure if a real wood veneer would be able to curve sharp enough without breaking, although I think it may be possible.

I got the inside of the door wet and now wooden pieces are swelling up? If it’s plastic it’s acting like wood!

I believe only the most upper trim is actual wood. High Country and Denali. The Denali trim has a topographical pattern in it. With that said here is what I found from your list.

So how did you go about making it go away? I just got the panel wet and the wood is all bubbly…

The topographical thing is only on Denali Ultimate.

'Regular' Denali does not have that. 

 

(Denali Ultimate is now a trim level, rather than an option added to a Denali)

I just left the windows down in 90 degree heat in Florida and it dried up, still had some small bumps, oiled with old English for light wood.
