Carbon Fiber B pillars

Just thought I would spread the greatness! No these are not overlays. No these are not carbon fiber skinned products with fiberglass backings. These are 3 layers of pure grade

Default Carbon Fiber B pillars

Just thought I would spread the greatness!


No these are not overlays.
No these are not carbon fiber skinned products with fiberglass backings.

These are 3 layers of pure grade A carbon fiber layered over eachother in different angles for a strong great looking authentic carbon fiber product!

Yes they are warrantied for the life of your car.
Yes they are direct replacements!
Yes they fit as perfect as the OEM ones.

All carbon fiber peices by us are clear coated with dupont automotive clear to protect it from fading and blemishing.

No gaps, no crooked lines.

MSRP $225.00 + $15 for shipping US.
The370Z.com price $200 + $15 for shipping anywhere in the world
Introductory price $200 + free shipping anywhere in the North America.

How to install??

Pop off the old ones (They pop off like legos, no bolts or screws)
Clean the area with degreaser and move the gaskets to the new B pillars.
Remove the 3M backing on the B pillars, line them up, and press! Takes a few min to install!
Close the door, step back, and enjoy

Guaranteed fit!

Here are some successful pics! These just need a little cleaning, sanding on the sides and clear coat (these will be display models)

In the mold


Out the mold


The back 100% carbon fiber and epoxy resin.


At the scale they weigh 1 oz each. Yours will weigh 1.2 - 1.5 oz each. (16 oz in a lb)


And the two together before final sanding and clear coating.






Quality guarantee! These can be direct replacements or overlays. Will come with enough 3M tape to take care of the whole job + a little extra for those who need to do everything twice before getting it right :P.

P.S You cant tell with out the clear coat but the body line that the original ones have going vertically will also be there.

PM to order!

John,

You are posting this stuff all over the board, there are at least three different threads that have the exact same information in them about these b-pillar covers and another dozen threads about all the other replacement parts your trying to make. You do have a vendor topic that would be perfect to keep everyone updated on your progress.

I'd like to know why you stopped posting on the build thread? There was an update everyday for a week and then it went dead as the two week period came to an end...

We have nothing to update on that thread ^. The car was put back together and since we were waiting for the proper materials to create the carbon fiber pieces we couldn’t have them finished in time. So now we do have the materials and are working on bullittes pieces. We will be sending him the pieces over the next week give or take a few days and then he will be posting pictures.

And I do know we are in 3 different sections so that we are spread through out the site so we get recognized by more members. We are just making sure we can get a decent amount of sales and we also do pay to post.

But I will update the build thread right now to let everybody know.

These look beautiful. Maybe you could update this thread with a link to the installed pics once Bullit gets them.

Great job!! I see this is at Continental Nissan on LaGrange Road... I live closer to you than I thought, I am about five minutes from there.

If you need to test fit parts out of your molds let me know, no taking my car apart thought!

Keep it up.
