Carbon Fiber B-Pillar Covers from CFcovers.com - Toyota Yaris Forums

CTScott · 07-24-2010, 09:25 PM

I had a small dent in my driver's side B-pillar, thanks to me puling up too close to the bank drive-up window drawer. I decided that covering it would be easier than fixing it, so I started searching for pillar covers. There are plenty of carbon fiber ones available for 3 doors and Sedans, but I had trouble finding any for 5 doors. In searching for them, I liked CFcovers' product, as it was real carbon fiber and it was the thinnest (1 mm) that I found. So, I emailed them to see if they had plans to make ones for 5 doors. The response that I received was that if I placed and order for their 6 piece sedan set and specified that it was for a 5 door, instead of a sedan, that they would track down a 5 door for measurements and in about a week, would ship me a set for my 5 door. So, I placed my order and today received my covers.

Here they are before installation (for each side - two pieces for the B-Pillar and one small piece for the strip between the rear windows):

The pieces are backed with 3M adhesive, so installation is simply peel and stick. Here they are on the car:

that looks sweet! i wonder how the wear and durability is on them? keep us posted

CTScott · 07-24-2010, 09:41 PM

Thanks - They guarantee them for 2 years, so we'll see what happens. Here's what they say about them:

- Made with real grade A++ 2x2 twill carbon fiber fabric and aerospace grade epoxy resin for the strongest possible laminate.
- 100% BUBBLE FREE
- Only 1mm in thickness so it looks like it's part of the car.
- 5 minute installation. Just peel the backing off the 3m tape and attach the part to your car. No tools necessary.
- Everything is cut on an industrial water jet by a computer, so perfect fitment is guaranteed every time.
- All pieces are painted with at least 5 layers of ultra high performance urethane clearcoat with UV blocker.
- All parts are IN STOCK and ready to ship within 24hours.
- 30 day MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. If you're not totally satisfied with the quality of our products, just return it for a full refund!
- Part quality is guaranteed with a 2 YEAR WARRANTY. No other company on ebay guarantees their work like us!

Here's their ebay listing for the 3 door ones (the 4 piece set is for 3 doors, the 6 piece set is for sedans, and the 5 door 6 piece version isn't listed yet):

nice! although the A-pillar now seems lonely lol

evo165 · 07-25-2010, 08:44 AM

Very NICE & professional CF racing look esp the shine given out from the pillar now!

Now I know what is my next poison!!

But I am deciding should I go for it as mine ride currently have the window visor.

Meaning i got to remove them entirely from the sticky double-sided tape b4 i can mount the CF pillar sticker.

JumpmanYaris · 07-25-2010, 12:27 PM

JumpmanYaris · 07-25-2010, 12:47 PM

If someone gets these for their 3 door please post pics. I was originally going to look for full replacements, but these might do the trick.
