Default FS: Carbon Fiber Pillar Covers. Yet again. CHEAP!!!!!

Long story short - picked these up on ebay ($69.95) about the same time I bought the vitesse tuning pillar covers. I really like the glossy look these offer. So I sold the Vitesse tuning covers to Maverix.

Anyhow, theres a slight issue in that the are a 1/4" to short. That may not be an issue for some but it was for me. So, I tried communicating with the seller and now I'm getting the run-around. I started a claim through Paypal but these things never up in favor of the buyer. Rather than draggin it out - I'd like to offer them for $40 shipped. I'd like to post the communication between the seller and myself - the guys a crook!

So, I take a loss but I save my sanity - I'M SO DONE WITH EBAY!!!

From the bottom. The top has a curve to them that matches the door frame. I guess if you're handy enough you can cut the curvature on the top, then center it from the top and bottom.

update: After going back and forth with the seller - i decided to send them back and he agreed it was the right thing to do, so he refunded my money. I'm glad it worked out. I was going to "personally" deliver them to him if he refused the refund my money.
