I think it will like nice!
it'll add a little sportiness to the car!

BobbyC

seems like it would look pretty good. esp on my cbp.
i just wanna make sure the edges sit flush with the chrome..

they do have a 60 day return policy.... hrmmm

ohhhh I like this VERY much. If you get glossy pillars then you can make your door handles glossy black chrome. It'll look sick.

Cant you do the same with some 3M gloss black vinyl? That will only cost like $15 and wont have to worry about fitment.

Or will actual black plastic look better?

spdandpwr

yea, the plastic b-pillars look ugly. I want to get these glossy things but am worried about fitment. Let us know.

BobbyC

i doubt it would have that super glossy/ reflective surface.
idk. ive never worked with the gloss vinyl. just matte and CF.




thats pretty impressive.

again, im still kinda worried about fitment.

search yielded a review for a CU1

fitment looks pretty good.

same vendor has some listed for 09-11 TSX..
12 should be the same b-pillars right?

opboarding

Yeah you're right, vinyl wouldnt look anywhere near that reflective.

I think it looks pretty good! Are you going to be the forum hero and be the first to buy it?

BobbyC

hahah considering it.
just sent the vendor a message to make sure it fits 2012.
im pretty sure its the same as 2011 but just wanna cover my ass in case it doesnt fit.

opboarding

2009-2012 will all be the same

Where was this!!! I hate my matte plastic pillars! Too bad I can't even get these because I would have to rip off my visors

opboarding

Try gloss black vinyl. It'll be something in between the matte that's there and the shiny piano black ebay ones.

BobbyC

i kinda figured.
i just dont want them to be like "well. it never said it was for 2012" if it doesnt fit and i wanna return it or something.

opboarding

gotcha

BaoZZeR

Gonna look too ghetto

There's a guy somewhere on here with a Vortex Blue CU2 on A-Spec wheels that has these. He said the fitment was perfect. Let me dig up that thread..

iSeeYouTwo

Nvm, it was also a CU1.

I have them on my CU2 all I can say is fitment issues Luckly the seller (pillarcovers on ebay )corrected them and sent me a new pair I had to send him measurements for them to make me new ones though. Good Luck

BobbyC

that actually looks pretty good!
maybe they figured the fitment out with your measurements. lol

does it scratch easy?


think i might order a set today

iSeeYouTwo

That looks good?


Don't you see the huge gaps lol

BobbyC

the right one is off but i think he installed them crooked...
didnt really notice the gaps til you pointed it out...hrmm

BobbyC

i think the gaps are issues with them not knowing the right measurements.
it also looks like he mounted them a little higher than they were supposed to be mounted..


the ones posted above on the CU1 look good.

still may risk it one day.. idk.
may just leave it alone. mine still new so it doesnt look bad or anything.

ed_423

order, test fit, no like, return.

savclaude

IMO i think the pillars look good with that flat color i wouldn't touch anything, the chrome door handles bothers me alot

so after you sent them measurements and they sent you a new pair, the new pair had no fitment issues?

Speed2000

You could just cover them with paint protection film, that's what I did and it will gloss over any flat color.



Also did my old BMW

civichbdx

( mrstak )Yeah the new ones they sent me were perfect. I haven't had a chance to put them on still rocking the getto ones lol. I also have a feeling its not gonna be easy to remove. Good luck ( BobbyC )

BobbyC

i hated my chrome handles at first.
even plastidipped them black but it didnt look right.
the chrome door handles and the chrome trim kinda work together.

if it was all black, i think it would look weird.
