Default Gauge Pillar?

I have been trying to find a 3 gauge pillar for my car and it seems darn near impossible to find one. The only one that I have been able to locate is this one on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&category=43951&item=79 86465321

It looks very cheap though. I suppose it would work, but I want to make sure that the curve of the mounting area matches the curve of the stock pillar. I have no problem customizing the stock pillar with this one to look like a full pillar, but what do you all think about this one? Is there any place that I could find a full pillar that actually replaces the long stock one? Does anyone know of a website or something where I could find one?

Bottom line, if nobody knows were to get a full gauge pillar for this car, does anyone have this one, and or what do you think of it?

I know it is OBX so I am skeptical (mmmm, did I spell that right???), but if it is the only one than it is the only one.

BTW: How much do you think it would cost for a custom carbon fiber gauge pillar?! That would be sick!

Thanks anyone for any opinions or information.

So did the texture of the pillar match the stock grain? How did it look? What are your opinions of it?

Thanks man.
