I just got my carbon fiber A pillars today and when I went to put them on and I noticed it's a little difficult. I am nervous to pull I dont want to break anything, anyone have any advice? Does anyone have the both pillars like I do from Carbontrix aka Road Race Motorsports? I don't evem know if they go over the stock pillars or if I actually have to take the stock ones out. In there picture it looks like it just covers the stock pillar. RRM said that it can accomodate up to a 60mm gauge and it doesn't even look like it comes close to fitting. Any thoughts or answers?

 

they cover the stock ones. they do fit i have seen em on a few cars.

call them 562-906-0080

 

i would love to see some pictures after install is done, also how much do they run? thanks!

 

Im running 52mm in mine and it is a tight fit. One reason I got these cause I dont want something blocking my line of sight. I just riveted mine to the stock apillars. I still have some trimming to do. They will cover over the pillars you just gotta pull out the a-pillar and then slide it over the stock a-pillar ...

 

yeah...theyre not the most precise things in the world...thats why i didn't buy them. They dont even fit on the Road Race evo

 

The carbon trix A-pillars fit pretty well but it takes some work. You have to pull off the stock pillars. I used a puddy nife and carefully wedged it at the top of the stock pillar and then pulled. This will remove the top snap and then the other 2 (middle and bottom) are easy to get off. I went with some double sided tape to get the covers to adhere to the pillars. To get it back on you have to use a flash light to make sure the bottom snaps are lined up. Once the're in you can hit the top of the a pillar to get the top snap in.

I installed 60 mm defi BF gauges in mine which took some heavy work with a dremel tool to get the 52 mm holes up to the larger size. After all that I'm pretty happy with how everything fits and the gauges look good.

 

can someone please post pics. thanks!
