Looks like he took two single pillar pods and made a dual pod?

He probably spent 6 or more hours doing that and it doesnt look too good. Might as well just buy one that is made for our cars. Looks much better and has the same stock textured pattern in the plastic.

actually it came out perfect and he saved a good amount of money.

"Now for the finishing touch, paint it the color of your interior! I have the ford interior spray paint to match our dark charcoal gray, but it just doesn’t match as well as black automotive primer. No lie, black automotive primer is a 100 percent match. Below is a photo of it installed, I think it looks awesome, although in the photo the pillar is covered in hand prints. Now that its clean, it looks like it was part of the car from day one"

instead of just buying a full A-pillar he made his because they are hard to find for the 03 cobra convertibles.

I sold my two gauge pillar from gaugepods.com on ebay for like $45 shipped and spent the money on a 3gauge pillar from them, hehe. The quality is excellent and the prices are definitely fair.

Hey what rims do you have? They look a lot like my new rotas.
