Unhappy CF B-Pillar trim "cracking"

About 6 months ago I bought the CF B-Pillar, Mirror Accent, and Emblem trim from Suite-E-Grafx(Great company!!!! I am NOT bashing them at all), and in recent months have noticed them(mostly the b-pillars) waterspotting, hazing, and "cracking". I clay barred, polished, glazed, and waxed them, having pretty good success, but the "cracking" appearence on the tops of the b-pillars has gotten worse. I have contacted Suite-E-Grafx and he has no problem replacing them... but I''m not sure that I want to replace them every six months or so. Do any of you know of a brand that will not do this? Or perhaps a way to keep a new set of these from doing it in the future?

Thanks Everybody

Just curious mc350z, how long have you had your's? I'm just wondering if those will eventually do the same as mine... cracking and fading at the top, that is!

how do u plan on removing the b-pillar covers that are on now? i remember when i installed mine, the adhesive was pretty damn strong.....felt like the actual b-pillar would rip off before the cover would

Well, I "plan" on using a heat gun, adhexive remover, and a lot of patience. But if that doesn't work than I will buy new ones.
