Default Some a**hole stole my b-pillars!

I went to the mall yesterday in a fairly good neighborhood, when i came out my b-pillars were missing! they just pulled the whole thing right off, i guess they wanted the $30 carbon fiber covers what makes it worst is that it must have been another Z owner because who else would want em.

anyone have the actually pillars for sale? i want to call the dealer, but i know they'll be overpriced.

i hate thieves!

A Honda owner will put them on his car. Proper fit is not a requirement.

I have Nismo covers, so I filled the grommets with Epcon C6 and they WILL NOT come off unless you can pry the grommets out from the body. I had to do this because the Arizona heat was causing them to warp and the grommets to pop.

Your probably going to see more of this now that used 2003 Z's are going for around $17k.... Your getting a younger crowd buying Z's now

I remember in High School when Suzuki sidekicks were popular and everyone in school would be stealing each other's soft tops...
