My opinion, no chrome pillars with the chrome surround, makes the car profile look more like one big window instead of 3 little windows. But take it for what it is worth, I always lean towards money spent on my cars for go parts and not show parts.

Just remember, it's your car. You pay the bills and you drive it. If you like it, then who cares what someone else thinks! It's all about your experience!

Chrome splits up the windows--cars look better with black b-pillars.

To those that blacked out your chrome trim around the windows, did you wrap or get it painted? What did it cost?

Mine was wrapped. It's a particular wrap that has an ultra gloss mirror finish. It literally matches the paint.
