Default higher quality a pillar guage pod???

So far most of the a pillar gauge pods I've seen (including my own) don't exactly blend well with the rest of the interior.

Does anyone know of a company that makes a higher quality a pillar pod? Maybe carbon fiber or even just a better plastic?

There used to be a cf option. They had it for both sides.

I think your best bet is to have it covered in a fabric.

yeah thats what I was thinking too. I wonder if I can 3-D scan the orginal pillar, throw the model into solid works or pro-E and have one made out of better material. maybe even carbon.

could be an interesting design project?

you said "hated" as in past tense? what do you have now?

Stillen carbon fiber a pillar set.
ATI E-pod column kit.
If you dont want to mess with the a pillars, the ATi is one solid little piece, for shallow gauges, matches well.

And no, those arent my final gauges ha. This was pre blow up, the plan was nitrous.. haha, that would have ended just fanTASTIC.
