in picture number 2, on the top of this page, look at the top part of the piece ( the part closest to the windshield)

follow the piece from the top to the bottom, and see how its uneven compared to the black trim on the front windsheild.

Fireball, could you get clearer pics of there the piece meets the windshield in hi-res?
As with any fiberglass piece, it isn't perfectly straight, but it's not really noticeable either. I think it's more the paint that I used on it as well, which makes it seem wavy. It's some silver hammer finish type of paint. I think I might try a more semi-gloss type of silver paint next time instead. Either way, I've had a bunch of people sit in my car and they think it looks great.

To each their own....

Funny thing is my stock driver's side A-pillar has warped so much that it borders on ridiculous. There's a gap between the base of the pillar and the dash and a bubble in the middle of the pillar where it lies against the window. Don't ask me how that happened, but I can only assume it wasn't a defect. (It's too warped and no one else has had this problem so far as I'm aware) Anywho, the FG looks plenty straight to me and I think that once it's in place for a while and painted it'll look poifect.

You can throw anytime. I just didn't want people paying and waiting for 2 weeks. The sooner you pay, the guarenteed you are to get one.

That looks awesome! Would the other pillar have to be painted to match the new one then?
