Piano Black Dash

Piano Black Dash
Hi,
I am planning on buying an XKR (X100) after Christmas. I have a picture of the car I want in mind, however (unsurprisingly) reality is proving a bit different.
Can anyone tell me if there was a European-market XKR made with a piano black dashboard (as per on the XJR)?
If not does anyone know of a place that can make replacement wood panels to create this look? Either way I am keen to get rid of any factory sat nav and have the three clocks (with the true gauge modification) for that classic look. So regardless if I can find a car with a piano black dashboard (I have only ever seen one advertised and it had way too many owners) I will need someone to make/supply the centre panel to accept the three clocks.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

The alternative to the wood veneer is the fairly rare carbon fiber option. It became available in the later years as an option. I am sure you can find pictures with a search.
Best of luck.

In case you did not already know about this (I too am in search of the perfect car that is in my mind and like you, don't want navigation, prefer the 3 gauges):
