I was thinking of covering the pillar between my front and back door with 3m vinyl carbon fiber tape covering it top to bottom which will run it right under the rocker guard. I "think" it will look good...Has anybody had experience with this stuff?
Help me out my jeep people

I agree I wanted to just do the pillars for the look, now that I saw it Im debating the 3Ming the grill. My friend has it done to the front of her Mercades and it doesnt look getto at all. I Bow to the awesomeness of that 3M jeep that was a hell of a project.

I bought some but the only place I've used it is on the sides of the instrument panel. Sorry no pic, it's dark now.

what do you guys think of just taping the doors and leaving the rest of the jeep steel blue? Im going for an armored look and I think the black carbon fiber doors with the steel blue frame might pull that off?

I think it'll make it look like you bought salvaged doors and didn't bother to paint them to match.
