F-150 B-Pillar Covers! (must have mod)

I was getting tired of the boring Matte black finish on the stock B-pillars between my SuperCrew doors. I had read somewhere about replacement covers so I figured I'd give it a try. I jumped on it right away and purchased a set of 4 off Ebay from PillarCovers for $36.79 with FREE shipping. I can honestly say that I cannot be any happier with the results. The pieces fit perfectly and make the truck look A LOT better! I highly recommend these to everyone, because for the low price, they are a must have appearance improvement modification with a less than 10 minute install time. Here is the link for purchase:

Below are the before and after pics and a few more.

After:




Buy them and enjoy!

looks awesome, how exactly do they fit on? They replace the stock or literally just a cover?

Thanks! They are a thin fitted piece of vinyl with an adhesive back and they stick directly over the matte finish b-pillar. Taking your time dry-fitting them to know how they fit and taking your time applying them is key to getting them perfectly aligned. But super easy install and a cheap way to greatly improve the look of our trucks.

Do they stick out at all? Paint match looks good, are the pillars tuxedo black? Again this looks great definitely going to have to get these

It doesn't sit exactly flush, but it also isn't noticeable unless you are looking for it. After I installed it, I haven't noticed it or thought about it one time. If you are hesitant, I can take a close up of it if need be.

Thanks!! Now I just need to tint the front windows and the new B-pillars will look even better and will give it the glassed-out side look I was looking for.

That looks so much better man! I know the feeling of the matte panels on a black truck. Very in-acceptable. PillarCovers is great!

Thanks Darren! I totally agree. And your truck looks awesome with the new pillar covers too.

Texas Frog: i'm not sure if they would work on the newer trucks but I would contact PillarCovers directly from their ebay sellers page and they are good about answering questions quickly.

Phan10m: nice truck. Lol. My tires are Toyo M/T 275/65/20. Its the biggest I could fit with the stock 20s and clear the control arms with no rubbing. But they are 34.5" and thats what I was looking for. What tint do you have on your front and back side windows?

Just put them on yesterday. These are an awesome addition to any black truck! I would post a pic, but I dunno how. Great, cheap mod. Thanks for posting about them.

Anyone ordered the ones for the SuperCab yet? If so, can you supply the proper link? The seller says they fixed the issue with incorrect sizing on the Scabs.
