Default B pillar

Who has fixed one?... and it look like it should?? Maybe I should find out more on an old thread?... these panels on the lower B pillar, where you get in and out letting seat belt hit, letting ones hip and such hit when getting in and out. They peel or wear, not sure what to do on a fix.

It's def doable, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to reskin the panel yourself. There's no stitched parts or weird stuff going on.

Between our 2 LS cars I've had 4 B pillars recovered. They look like new and are more durable. Used to cost $35 each. Likely $100 now.​​​

The link I posted has more information. You pull the foot kick plates up, then pull the lower b pillar off ( Both are held in with clips, no screws or bolts). Once those are removed you have access to the upper b pillar which has a few bolts.
