Hi, sent you PM.

We currently do not have A-pillars but we are looking for anyone who can donate a decent set thats in good shape, and we'll send in return a brand new set of CF pillars once we have them ready.
Also like to know what version is preffered;
either the regular seat belt version or the motorized sliding seat belt buckle version?

Please let us know.

D: I prefer the one w/o the seatbelt. both my a-pillars shrank in over years of texas heat so sadly they won't be of use. I hope d0ct0r can come through.

The long dash trim is the missing highlighted area. Even if you made the entire panel out of cf that would be cool. This vent and my A-pillars are the only cracked/shrunk items on my car.

I understand 100% now if someone can please send their A-pillars so it will only take a couple of months to get some instead of a couple of years-never.

I know it takes time to make the parts. That's not a problem. I don't mind the length of time as long as communication is there. But when you get a email saying your replacement is ready to ship on April 8th...it shouldn't take that long to actually do it. Like I said as long as communication is there no problem.

Completely understandable. I'm not one to get angry but I was upset with a company who kept saying my tower bar was sitting in their warehouse getting ready to be shipped for 4 weeks until they finally told me they don't have them in stock and they need to make more. Got refunded and I just realized I still really want that freaking tower bar.

I would pay for the entire front dash cover to be made.... alot of people with roll cages would buy this i'm sure. almost every race FC i've seen is missing this piece including mine and it sucks.

Great input guys! will definitely take in to consideration the Ducbkill spoiler.

As for the A-pillars we are now ready to start this project, based on your greatly valued opinion we will need a donor for a decent set of the non-sliding seat bealt A-pillars. Donor will receive a brand new set of CF pillars in return.

Please let us know. Thanks!

I, for one, would like to see A-pillars in production as well as the frontal dash vents. These are parts that will sell in quantity unlike a full dash (which would take far longer to make a mold of and be considerably more expensive than the smaller pieces).

Its the small parts that constantly are found to be broken, or missing, that sell well, hell if he makes A-pillars that already have 2-3 gauge pods moulded in thats even better for certain people. But asking to have parts not made (or stopped being developed) for a dash that a handful of 'racers' will buy is quite selfish.

Keep up the good work paulo and co. Look forward to the day I can acquire more parts from you guys.
