Default Any ideas?

I would like something totally weird for a paint job, namely a "wooden" finish. The idea is to make a lexan body look like it's carved from wood. Any ideas as to how to acheive this please. Thank you.

you can get graining tools at most paint stores, I have done it to steel and fiberglass doors, dont know how well it would work on a small area, but there are tons of youtube videos showing how to do it. As with all backwards painting start withe the details, ie. the grain and then fill in the background
