Does the genuine one come in two?
Thanks guys.
highvoltage1 09-08-2009, 12:29 AM Yes it is a pair from TRD sparks. I got mine from ebay but an actual toyota parts dealer. They look like the exact ones from the factory but i would search the classifieds on here or find someone with a better rating unless you ahve done business with this seller before and it was a good experience.
liltofuboix 09-08-2009, 01:02 AM not sure but they sureee do look the same ahhaha
mindoculae 09-08-2009, 01:05 AM corse motorsports is a reputable company. excellent price.
celestialeve2k1 09-08-2009, 01:06 AM Ack! I just realized I posted on the interior forum. My bad :eek:
But they do look very similar. I just don't know if it'll still look similar once I receive it hehe.
Trogz 09-08-2009, 03:32 AM Keep us posted. I'm interested as well.
08_Scion_tC 09-08-2009, 03:40 AM Do these just stick on?
DJ08tC 09-08-2009, 03:56 AM Yes
08_Scion_tC 09-08-2009, 11:40 AM Yes
Ok I might look into getting some these myself.
DJ08tC 09-08-2009, 03:28 PM ^^super easy to install, just clean the surface and stick. Maybe 5-10 mins at the most. They add a nice little touch

killatc171 09-10-2009, 01:18 AM ^^^ thats cause they are. those are just overlays. just vinyl sticker you add to the pillar. i would stick with the ones from ebay or trdsparks. they arent just vinyl overlays. they are actualy cf pieces. not fakes. i picked up a set from trdsparks. and i love them they look great and add a nice touch. the ones from that ebay link look exactly the same.
im lookin to get those too, but im concerning which one is good and has best price !!

celestialeve2k1 09-10-2009, 02:54 AM I think I'll stick with the ebay or trd version. I just wish I can view both in person. Hard to judge with just the pictures. If anyone here get's the ebay one please let me know the quality.
08_Scion_tC 09-10-2009, 03:32 AM why . . . yes -----------> http://www.customtc.com/pillar.htm

Yea defiantly dont buy those, that ebay seller looks legit. They really look like the real thing. I read some of the comments and saw 4 people had bought them and were happy

GreenTeaboy 09-11-2009, 06:23 PM Anybody knows if these are waterproof??
08_Scion_tC 09-11-2009, 06:26 PM I don't see why they wouldn't be.
GreenTeaboy 09-11-2009, 06:30 PM i don't know just making suure..
DJ08tC 09-11-2009, 10:29 PM Yes they are waterproof, they are designed for the outside of the car. I have had mine for over a year now and there are no signs of fading or the 3m tape peeling up.
GreenTeaboy 09-11-2009, 10:36 PM sounds good..i was worry about the fading part..but its all good now i might get myself a pair now
DJ08tC 09-11-2009, 11:34 PM Yea, just wax them like you would your car so they don't fade
