Not anymore, I live in the borough of my town so I am in a pavement neighborhood, and my work relocated me to our facility 27 miles away and it is all pavement there too ( the one near by used to be a dirt road/lot). My truck has been parked since Monday and has been rained on continuously so that helps too. But the last time my truck saw gravel was when I parked for a couple pics.

Pillar Covers

Hey Darren,

Thanks for the tip!

This is a mod I have been thinking about for awhile and thought I was going to have to buy the new panels for several hundred. When I saw the way yours turned out I went ahead and bought them this am and will install them next weekend.... THANKS!

Also.. I need to PTM my door handles and mirrors so I am looking forward to seeing your thread / pictures from painting your mirrors.

Gotta love glossy pillars with tint, its so clean! However that charcoal tint on the front would bug the living crap out of me, I can see it bugs you too.

Went very smooth. Just need to "dry fit" and make sure you identifty where your pieces go as they are not labeled, and make sure you line it up good.

Yes, big time. I am stripping it and replacing with 3M Color Stable series tint probably next week.

I do not know for sure, your best bet is to contact them and ask.
