what i did this afternoon.

[nc89sho]

so i was board... got tired of looking at my faded b pillars..


was going to paint them but found this "carbon fiber" looking vinyl at auto zone and decided to see what it would look like...
end results..


what do you think? i think it looks better than it did.

 

[luigisho]

Did they have any other vinyl choices? Regular black?

 

[LJRuddy]

I would have just dont flat black but its your car. Nice job either way!

 

[nc89sho]

that was the only kind they had, only on color. what the pic doesn't show thoughis that the stuff is three dimensional. it looks cooler in person, i'll try to get pics in direct sunlight tomorrow. but yeah, the only choices were this or paint.

 

[luigisho]

You just inspired me to go look for regular black. The carbon fiber look is fine, just not my thing. I think some black vinyl would freshen mine up a little.

The look is good, especially with your color combination. How hard was the application?

 

[nc89sho]

wasn't too hard. about like laying any other vinyl, just a bit thicker

 

[SHObill]

I like it! better than flat stock. Just....pattern seems to be tipped to the right? but it is 09* to the door trim so... OK

something else i did while bored...

 

[Rubix]

Looks good Terry. I think those only look good on black cars... I think they look sick on black cars

 

[SHO U UP]

Damn, that would match my hood perfectly! Great idea Terry. Looks good bud.

 

[lowc]

looks a **** of alot better nice job

 

[nc89sho]

i think you guys are looking at the eyelids... I've had those for a while, and no they aren't "carbon fiber" they are just black ... i was referring to the grill, which is new. thanks for the eyelid compliments though

 

[Rubix]

I was talking about the chin spoiler but looking at pictures after posting I realized you already had that on there when I last saw the car. Grill looks good too

 

[kevinspann]

I can't see the grill in the pic.....but is that the point?

 

[Rubix]

Black mesh, looks good Terry. I've never liked the factory gen 3 grill.

 

[94SHO_Norfolk]

Is it just me, but the first time I looked at the pic of that front end, it immediately reminded me of a catfish...eyes, whiskers, mouth, lol...

Those CF-looking trim on the b-pillars looks good on that car. Not a fan of eyelids, but as long as you're happy with it, that's all that matters.

 

[nc89sho]

i can't stand the gen 3 headlights without the eye lids. looks too much like a fish.... a scared fish.... on crack

 

[nc89sho]

and seriously... did for have to make EVERYTHING an oval??
