Those of you who have installed the carbon fiber door pillars from wood-dash.com...
After installation, does the pillar stick out at all? Since you are simply sticking/pasting the carbon fiber directly onto the OEM pillar, wouldn't it stick out and look out of place at all? Any information is appreciated as I am planning on buying these soon.
Thank You.

The answer is no they are flush with the rest of the body of the car since the original door pillars go inwards to the body of the car the pillars are flush withthe chrome door accents. Depending on the color of our car you won't even notice them until you get up close.

Also, the application tip above from MAXRAY is excellent. Test fit, start at the bottom and follow the existing line going up. It may help if the pieces are warmed slightly to be flexible. The sun may be enough or a hair dryer works well too - heat gun is NOT required! If you are careful and take your time, it will look MINT. Also, practice on the small pieces for the rear pillars first to get the idea down right - remember, you only get ONE chance to get it right. Once it's on, it's ON!
