Bump

I now need all 3 pieces of the c-pillar trim. Two side pieces (driver's side and passenger's side), and the middle connecting piece.

How 'bout some scoops to fill that empty space above the engine?

That would be a good idea, with the exception that my car did not come with the rear window visor to mount them to (that's how it looks like you did yours). I could deal with them otherwise, might make my car look rice, but it's better than looking ghetto with holes along the entire rear of the car (the pillars, and then holes leading into the cab, which is terrible at this time with it snowing here lol).

Did you make those yourself? Looks like it'd be an expensive set up to do.

*Bump

Summer time is coming up and I'm going to finish up buffing the car. Once that is done I'd like to put some c-pillars back on

, so if anyone happens to come across some in decent shape at a scrap yard, or happens to have an extra set laying around let me know. Reply here, or PM me.

Well, no.

The scoops were cheap and off a Toyota pickup truck. Write me for the info at "mr2tim"

Don't hold your breath for the Rear Pillars !!

The brass inserts molded into the Pillars react chemically with the steel machine screws and become fused together over 10-20 years. When the machine screws are turned the brass inserts rip the brittle pillar plastic to shreds.

This kind of engineering is why the Japanese lost World War II, I.E. their Zero airplanes were so fragile that just 1 American 50 caliber bullet would take out the entire airplane.

Just like American cars Japanese cars have their flaws too.
