They look fantastic, but would sell more if they made them for Mk 1s i think, i'd buy a set if they were 'real' carbon! Just out of interest, you say 'carbon look', am i right in presuming they are made from lookalike plastic or are they 'real' carbon? Any plans for Mk 1 pillar production/prices as yet?

Hi and thanks for the response. They are a 'Carbon fibre' film applied over the 'A' post and then fitted to the car. I didn't relly think about the Mk1 as I thought that it would look out of place against the roof colour? Obviously on a convertible with a black roof there is no 'clash'. Real Carbon fibre ones would be lovely but would cost quite a lot I guess. Best regards to all, Tony

I realy like them, have HHC done them or are they available from the factory. I've ordered a red glow for collection 3/4 and the only bit I would critise were the red posts with black hood. This makes it look really smart.

As far as I am aware it's just HHC who are producing them - Tony at HHC asked me to host the pics and put them up. It's good to see a dealer take the initiative for once, what with the new Sagaris alloys and vinyl slats, and now these for the Tuscan. Just need a Sagaris Sports Exhaust system now

Isn't this just the stick on film from Halfrauds?
