Outer B-pillars need repaint
hey my B-pillars are in a nasty condition, and i was wondering as to how i would remove these. I have a sedan, and im probably just gonna rattle can them with some automotive paint from advance/autozone. I just need to figure out how to remove them without scratching or damaging something, so i can sand them down. Any ideas?  |

sidenote: searched, and couldnt find bdymans exact writeup, im guessing it was written years ago. found this link instead, and will have to go by this: http://www.aleromod.com/forums/showt...ame+appliq ue for the weekend

its possible.....its real simple to get them out, just have to be carefull. the color and clear coat are going to turn out great!
as for your moms j body, i think the easiest fix is buying the B-pillar overlay vinyl. hell could even spiff it up with a carbon fiber overlay.
if grahixworks is still around i know they have a huge selection of the vinyl overlays for an assload of Gm vehicles.

NO to the overlays for mom's car. She wouldn't like that.
I joke with her that I'm going to "hook up" her car. It gets her off my back about other things

ha, well if you really wanted to tackle that job, the cavalier was alot more simply designed, and im sure it would be just as easy or easier to remove. just sanding....really sucks....
plus, its a good opportunity really clean up the weather stripping.... or replace it
