Mapple trim is grey and poplar is light brown or dark brown(but not really dark) depending if its light or dark poplar.

I thought that at first... but on the bamboo the lines are horrizontal
i used to have the bamboo but chainged it for the black trim i have now, im sure its maple schwartz
i have upgraded the nav to profesional, and as a result of that i needed the peice of trim that houses my heated seat buttons, because on the business nav it just has a cubby hole there, and pro nav unit is twice as deep.

You could go to the dealer to have it figured out, but my dealer STILL states that I have POPULAR wood inside of my car!!
