Default Nismo Carbon Fiber Pillar Garnish Kit???

What's up I just bought a set of Nismo Carbon Fiber B-Pillar cover kit from The Z Source. Has anyone ever put them on their Z or seen a Z with them on? How do they look in person? I paid $154.00 for the set. It was the last set. West Covina also sells them but there out of stock. From the pictures on there website they look nice, But I was wondering if anyone has a set or seen them on another Z. Thanks for your help.

Is there a way to get it to replace your entire b-pillar? Or is it strictly a stick-on thing?

They are just stick-on. Simply cosmetic.

If you've already paid for them, it is a bit late to wonder how they look on the car...

But FWIW, I love my set. Was on waiting list for almost 6 months before they finally got here last spring.

Wow, I feel pretty lucky to of got a set so quickly. Super easy to install, in fact many of friends couldn't tell that lay were sticker overlays. The product is very good quality.

Kind of a fail if you ask me. I have them, they are simply a sticker... Hold it up next to the pillar if you want to see how it looks

It's simply a sticker? It's not solid or anything?

So if I wanted to mess around with it to fabricate it to completely replace the b-pillar, it wouldn't be possible because it's not stiff/solid?
