Not a fan of CF B-pillars, but if I had to have it, I would want ones made from real CF instead of a CF-style vinyl.

I know that the adhesive vinyl attached to the textured plastic pillar trim wouldn't last even a week out here in Phoenix at 110-123 degrees fahrenheit before coming up.

That stuff looks alright.

Just don't expect your car to be any lighter.

I had a few scratches on the B-pillars and thought these decals would work. But, on second thought, they'd probably only be a short-term solution.
