do the r5s have platic pillar cover thingys? if so why not make one, i made a few for a friend a while back, if you buy some cheap pillar pods, some fibreglass matt and resin , sand paper and p38 filler, and take your time its quite rewarding, and if you dont wish to spend all day getting a paint finish spot on with it, then just go get it flocked for £20 , may seem a long winded way but looks much ebtter than universal ones etc,

ive got my universal one and well that aint gona fit so i might cut the two pods out and then mount them to the pillar and fiber glass them to make it look smoother, i better get buying the bits :)
