CF Door Pillars

So.. with the help of HVC, I got these things off.. And than dusted off the 3M Di-Noc from my closet.

Thanks Wichi,

For your white W202, I would probably do a black CF trim. It would look pimp IMO. Not hard at all, it took me 45 mins from start to finish, just gotta cut all the right pieces, fit em on, heat it up to get it perfect, stick em back on and voila, finished. I put a layer of Armor All protectant for that shine, looks MINT. I got another project heading my way for more CF fittings, but, like all my projects, gotta wait and have the money :(...

Just so you know, I washed the car the same day, and the CF wasnt damaged in any way, 3M really knows how to make em!

Adding to this, just be careful to not get wax or rubbing compounds on this 3M stuff. Unfortunately it does have its weaknesses.

The carbon fiber look off my sport is faded. I might just do this mod

I was using window cleaner (auto) to clean the surface of my greasy fingerprints :D
