    Default A-pillar is ruined, what now

    Due to my clearly irresponsible smoking habits, my cigarettes have burned little dark streaks into my A-pillars (i believe that's what they are.) I browsed for a while looking for any idea on how to fix this but they all talk about changing the whole piece, my problem with that is the airbags.

    If i could paint the pillars or something along those lines, that would be great. I will put up some picks to show everyone what i mean.

    This is why I don't smoke in my tC.

    Yeah, that would be bad. Just think how black his lungs would be.

    chyz-dad ... How is this holding up for you? Can you give us an update? This sounds like what CiscoInATc might need to do.

    !!! $30 that's cheap, I went to the Bronx to see if i could get someone to do it for me, they all wanted over $300 (well, the whole interior).

    I haven't had any time to work on the interior yet, but as soon as i start i will let all know.

    OH and yesterday as i wanted to scratch a itch on my head, i burned a little more right above my head...!

    Sounds to me like the first thing you need to do is to stop smoking in the tC :P
