I think you're contradicting yourself there. There's cheap, and then there's quality.

And where is the cheapest place to get these?

With Varis, all you need is a good clear coat and you are good to go. I have them, and they look just as new as when i first got them 3 years ago. And also make sure you give it a good coat of wax once or twice a month to prevent from fading.DO NOT order from EVO-R. It is garbage at best......

The problem is that pretty much all cf fades over time. It doesn't matter if it's B-pillars, hood, hatch, diffuser, etc.. Even the high end expensive cf parts yellow over time. So just get whatever B-pillar you think looks best

I've had the Varis B-Pillars on my car for over a year and they still look brand new. I never wax them or anything. Got them on eBay for like $80. No complaints.

Carbon Fiber is not a cheap material, so if you want real carbon fiber it's going to be $80+. We offer a lifetime warranty against yellowing on all our carbon fiber parts.
