Carbon Wrapped B-Pillars
Found myself a bit bored today, so having fixed rattle from the rear bumper and the high beam problem relatively easily, and with the weather being nice, I decided to have a go at carbon wrapping the b-pillars.
Here are a few pics - I must admit the result is awesome!
A bit more patience and I think the result would have been even better, but I'm happy with these (scalded hands, not a problem!)

Thanks - a tutorial would be nice though, especially covering how not to burn your hands in the process!

Re: Carbon Wrapped B-Pillars
Great! - Would love a "how to" on that - not sure if I'd still be brave enough to attempt it myself though....

Re: Carbon Wrapped B-Pillars
A quick question: I tried to remove B-pillars (plastic cover) today. Unscrewed torx-screw, but plastic was still holding something at the top of it. How can I remove this plastic without breaking anything what's holding it in place?
Cheers!

Re: Carbon Wrapped B-Pillars
Solved; remove the torx and slide the plastic down for about 2-3 cm (~1 inch) - you have to push quite hard; but don't break any of the plastic pins at the top.
