Carbon Fiber A-Pillers w/ gauge pods
Sunday, October 02, 2005 10:41 PM
I've spoken (through email) to a company that, given the level of interest, could possibly duplicate our A-pillers in CARBON FIBER, adding gauge pods to the drivers piller. These would fit 95-02 2 door Cavaliers and Sunfires, and SHOULD fit 03-05 (replaces your stock ones, so it should fit....... 4 doors are out of luck, unless there is enough interest)

The company I've contacted is Carbon TriX-Road///Race Motorsports.

He has requested for me to find people who are interested, and to get him pics of the items.

I for one am interested........ is anyone else? (I know I've seen this come up before).

Also, does anyone have any good pics of the parts? I dont have a digicam to take pics with right now.

Sample of their work



Thank you for helping me get these made for us.

I'm interested to. I'm about to buy a new pod and a CF one would be sweet. Could you see if they would make the passenger one with spots for gauges to??

I'm not too far away from RRM. If need be I can take my 03 up to them to see if they'll fit. As long as they have them done by the end of Oct.

Just an FYI for clarification... the 03-05 pillars are significantly different than the 95-02 pillars. They would have to make 2 separate molds/pillars.

^^^ I'm not trying to start a war or anything Jason. But from my experience I was able to fit a 00+ 3 pod pillar to my 04 without major problems. I did not have to modify anything. I just had to give it a little push to get it in. It also had a small gap at the top between the pillar and headliner.

It would probably be better to make two molds, but if only one is created I think the 03+ guys could install the 00+ and still be satisfied by it.

^^ May work... I never tried.

I just know that the 03-05 & 95-02 pillars look quite a bit different, and have different top & bottom curves to them.

I have no deff. price as of right now, but in compairison their FULL pillers w/ pods go for $240ish..... and most, if not all, are Dual pods. I can see about getting Tripple pods put in. As for gauges on the passenger side....... idk..... that would have to probably be a one-off/special order deal.

Jason, I know the 03-05 pillers are different, but I've seen 95-02 pillers in a 03, and they fit pretty good.

Right now, this is just to test the waters. I'll send him a link to both of my posts, and get him pics of the parts. Once he has that, he could probably give me a ball park price on them.

Thanks for showing interest.
