I got tired of looking at my scratched up B pillars so I bought some 3m carbon fiber vinyl to cover them up. I used painters tape to make templates and cut out individual pieces for each of the pillars. I'll take more pictures tomorrow during the day and will post them over the weekend, but here are some close ups I took before it got too dark... Thoughts?

Nice work. Look great. My pillars were scratched after the first wash. Definitely a bad spot for shiny plastic.

Can you post a pic of the whole truck to see how pillars look?

Thanks! Yes, I'll take pics of the whole truck tomorrow morning and will try to post them then as well.

Wow, those pillars look nice! Would like to see a full pic also!

For someone with a brand new truck (<48 hrs), what can be done to prevent the scratching? Anything easy, or do you have to look at something like Opti-Coat or Xpel?

Wash it by hand with a clean mitt and never take it through a car wash. You could put a clear matt Xpel on it or something. I kinda like the carbon fibre idea.

Get it wrapped in clear 3m or similar film. Most wrap places will do this for pretty cheap.
