looks good man. if i were you i woult cover them in grey grille cloth. ive done a few of them that way and they look really nic and stock. that way you wont have to worry about sanding the body filler as as well as cracking and getting chipped etc.

hey thats sound like a good idea. do ya happen to have a link to where i could check some out? and how would i wrap it if i go that route, just rsome CA? or is it too thin

You can go with some SEM textured paint(only comes in black) then pick up some SEM interior paint to match your gray ...they have different shades. Best bet is to takea dash piece with you when trying to match shades.

ok ive never really worked with the stuff and was thinkin it would chip off the thin spots. shouldnt be a prob though? thats another reason i was thinkin about just covering with something....to hide my inexperience lol

ok i just got done sandin the hell outta the one pilar and just sanded the plastic so its totally smooth and shot with primer. ill prob give it one more finish sand tomorrow and take a pic to see if its better lol. i skipped the body filler on the whole thing. but thanks for bringin it up about it prob looking better all smooth, i cant agree more :D im feelin proud for my first pilars and cant wait to be done sanding and put em back in for good ;)
