You can see on the driver side one where the light fixture up above is distorted across the panel. Meaning that theres a wave. If we see a wave like that. We will wet sand it down like crazy until the clear coat is smooth. And then re clear it. Thats why all of our parts go through a double clear coat process which only a few companies do. A layer of clear, it dries, you wet sand it with a flat block, and the shiny left over parts is the low parts. If we see that, we scuff it up with 2000 grit and reapply another clear coat. We wet sand, buff and polish. And tada!

Yes every now and then there will be tiny little waves from orange peel since orange peel in the clear coat even after wet sanding is inevitable and what not, but in that picture. I hate to say bad thigns about competitors work, but has anybody ever went to a carnival and you see those crazy mirrors that distort the image? You get my point.

Also even though we have proven to take quite a long time.

We offer life time guarantee
Ours is not an overlay so its not sticking out any more than it should
We use premium quality materials
And we do something that I have not seen other companies do with their B pillars.
Some may like this some may not but we feel that the carbon fiber weave will fit muuuch better if its angled along with the car.

The driver side pillar has the weave angled left to right, and on the passenger side we have the weave angled from right to left. So when you look at the car, you see the stance of the car from the driver side is angled from left to right (for aerodynamical purposes) so we have the weave going with the angle of the car and not contradicting the car. I’ll get pictures to show you guys tomorrow for a set I finished today.

I’m not trying to start a debate because we all know how debates go on forums. I’m just trying to state the pros of our B pillars.

I would never say anything purpousley for another company to lose out since I dont bask in other peoples missery. I know how that feels, so please dont tie my words to the wrong pole.
