Default A-pillar removal

I have looked everywhere, FAQ's and C6 general for something on removing or replacing your A-pillars with carbon fiber. I thought I saw this a week or so ago? Does anyone know of a link or prior experience?

Thanks,

Mike

i believe you take off the windshield side pieces and then they are held in by a couple of nuts.

If you are talking about the windshield moulding there were just two threads running about the removal.

I should have been more specific? I was refering to the exterior part of the A-pillar. That is what will be carbon fiber.
