I don't think Rob Vreeland ever posted this on here, and I was just poking through his galleries and found it:

http://www.pbase.com/robv/facia

Small write up and a few photos about his making of the wooden empeg fascias. Cool little bit of empeg history.

PS... Rob and SWMBO just had a baby boy yesterday!

my miata SE has both real wood steering wheel and shift knob, which initially i would have though would go well with the wood facias on this website, but while the facia itself is quite striking, against the blue background of the screen and black metal handle i am afraid that it loses quite a bit of its attractiveness....

just my opinion
