OEM A-Pillar cover and ProParts ProPod triple pod pillar
Gauge Works dual pod pillar and ProParts ProPod triple pod pillar
All of the above.
Note: this is how they look straight out of their respective boxes. I did not put any shine/protectant product on them, nor did the manufacturer. The high-gloss finish is part of the piece.
In the pictures, mainly due to the flash, the Gauge Works and ProPod pieces look very similar as far as the shine goes, but in person, you can really tell that the ProPod part is much more glossy.
Hope this helps!

Thanks Keith it helps alot. I guess I could do one of two things. Have Caravaggio do a leather cover for it and the other side...............or get VE to do the carbon fiber process on both....what do you think????

If I were installing a triple pod pillar cover and had no other choice but to go with the ProPods part, I'd have it wrapped to match the dash/door material.
