Rub Rail Under the Dashboard

Just wanted to give out an idea on the rub rail under the dashboard. As most of you know, this is generally wrapped with a piece of foam rubber and then wrapped with a leather type material.

Due to it being soft, the leather covering often gets broken through and is easily damaged.

I took a different approach, and replaced the foam rubber with a hard wood profile. which was then covered in the leather material. This is much more rugged and looks very nice. Pictures attached show how it is done.

And the final result looks just like the original but should be able to take a lot more wear and tear:
