Found Carbon Fiber Door Pillars NICE!! :)

Hey guys, I just found some nice carbon fiber door pillars. I just purchased these and they look really nice!

http://stores.ebay.com/RK-Grafix_Imp...isplayZ1QQtZkm

They are not real carbon fiber, but they are very close.

I e-mailed the guy selling these things and asked if he can give us a group discount. I need to know how many of you are willing to purchase these so I can let him know.

Let me know what you guys think.

I think those don't look very good, as compared to the real CF ones that are available to us.

Those look like crap!

Youd be better off buying a sheet of CF like vinyl, stick it on then trim it.

Yeah honestly, those won't fool anyone. I think the whole point of real CF pillars is to give the 3d look, which vinyl can't.

Only someone who hasn't seen real CF up close before would say it doesn't look horrible.

Yuck!

On a side note does anyone know who makes the REAL CF Door Pillar that Covers the Entire Pillar?

I believe it was New England Dash that produce them but can't find a website?

Thanks.

slammed95: Funny I was actually going to try to get ahold of you.

Do you know if the ones you mention cover the enitre pillar?

Also you mentioned a while back a CF Plate do you have any pictures? Have you done anything new with CF latley or have anything coming out?

Thanks.

Those are CRAP. But you can keep telling yourself they are nice to justify putting them on your car.
While your at it, get a large sheet and cover the hood

heres mine......


Still think those vinyl ones look good?

So he submits a thread in the GD section before he even speaks with the manufacturer of these things? I'd rather put the $10 for these POS deals towards a tank of gas for my car.
