Hey everyone, I FINALLY got the Carbon Fiber pillar covers done. I would LOVE to have everyone's input. I know that everyone's got different opinions so just let them fly. (please keep them nice tho) Anyway, if i do decide to put them on, I'll post a DIY thread.

PS: I'd also love to know what you guys think about whether or not I should put the Mugen Door Visors on or not. Thanks!!

After:


With Door Visors:

 

Looks good, I would buy those over the chrome ones on ebay.

 

is that just like carbon fiber vinyl covering or is it actualk carbon fiber? i think it looks good, but can't tell if its real or not

 

It's REAL Carbon Fiber.

 

Just looks kinda weird.

Considering everything is normal and then it looks like you just slapped on some CF randomly.

 

Yeah, that's what i was thinking too. I've got CF all over the car, but not enough to make it look natural. I've got CF on the cowling, CF spoiler and i've CF-ed random parts on the car. But yeah, i'm kinda split on whether or not i should keep them or not.

 

They might look ok in in a wider shot and we could see the other CF on your car.

Also, where did you get them and do they have chrome ones?

 

Ill try to get a wider shot. I"ll just have to tape them on. I dont' want to install them untill i've decided on what to do.


The CF Pillar covers are custom made by me

There are chrome "style" ones, but all the ones that i've seen say "Jazz" on them

 

i just found some chrome ones on ebay:

eBay.ca: Honda Fit 2007 07 Chrome Door Pillars (item 300102748757 end time 27-Apr-07 16:17:04 EDT)

 

looks good. couple questions. Are u going 2 do the back door pillar (the part next 2 the one that u test fitted it on). Also, is it clear coated or just dry CF with no clear coat (u can feel the bumps of the CF). I think it'll look good w/ the mugen visors installed because u won't see the top section of the door that u didn't carbon fiber. More pix.

 

its' clear coated. As for the rear pillars, it will be REALLY hard becasue of the curvatures of the pillars.
