A-pillar Battle scar

04 G35 coupe.
i have the black interior, but the suede/velvet (or whatever) pillars and roof... while smoking, i was flicking my ashes out the window, i accidently hit the A-pillar. this is the 2nd time it happened to me, and left two burn marks close to each other... im not pissed, sorta. but i was wondering if it happened to anyone else? haha

Not burn marks, but I marked mine up pushing a box that was too large into the passenger seat. I followed the lead of someone else in here and popped them off, then covered them with a faux black suede material. Cost me about $10 to do both and I like it better than stock. Look here:

Well Makiavelli, it could be good karma, or it could be bad karma. The ashes that didn't make it out of your car might have kept you from starting a fire along the roadside.

As a guy who lives in Southern Cal you should be more careful.
