If your team mates think wood look unprofessional then they have never seen a piece of wood finished right. If you mark and drill all your holes and then paint it your team colors or black (always looks good) while being careful to not get too much paint in the holes (or you can just redrill them out after you paint it) it will not look out of place. I would agree with the potential for static with lexan and wood is really the best alternative. As far as mounting the CRIO goes, there are two holes which you can bolt through under the modules. If i remember correctly they are under modules number 1 and 6. Just bolt through these and your CRIO will stay in place. Also I remember that the control system documentation has more information on the proper mounting techniques and if my memory fails you can always head over to NI.com and see if you can find the documentation there.
