Default C5Z Driver Side A-Pillar

Looking for a very nice drivers side a-pillar off of a C5Z. I bought one off of a regular C5 and the material is slightly different so it must be off of a Z06. No junk please, I’m looking for one in excellent condition. PM me if you have one, thank you.

Pic for reference:

My car is a 2003. It’s weird, the one on my car now (garage kept entire life) has a very smooth appearance. The one I bought is off a 2004 Coupe and is in absolute mint condition but the material looks quite different, has a lot more texture to it. Like you mentioned, could very well be UV exposure, etc. I’d take a pic of what I have on my car but it’s stored at another location right now.

The first picture is the material on the one I bought. The second pic does not belong to me but looks more like what I’ve got on my car.

^^Ok cool, there must be more than one material used on the a-pillars then, thanks for posting that.

Still Looking for a driver side a-pillar off of a C5Z only.

I own a 2002 base coupe and my a-pillar is smooth like the bottom picture. I recently replaced my drivers side with an aftermarket a-pillar (with gauges). Sending you a PM.

Turns out the a-pillar I previously bought was labeled as being off a 2004 C5 but is actually for a C6 hence the difference in materials.

With that said, I’m open to driver side a-pillars off any C5 body style since I’ve been able to identify them all as the same. Condition must be excellent.

Please send me PMs if you have what I’m looking for rather than posting here, thank you.

Please send me a PM if you have what I'm looking for as I won't be checking this thread daily, thanks.

Back up. Bought one off a Coupe but it is not the same and doesn’t fit unfortunately. Hopefully third time is the charm...looking for a very clean driver side a-pillar off of a Z06. The inside must have the webbing like the one pictured on the bottom:
