Default Pic request- color matched B-Pillars

I did a search or two and all I was able to find was info on repainting them that stock grey color.

Has anyone repainted their B-Pillars the same color as the rest of the car, or have access to pictures from someone who has?

TIA,

G.A.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I thought about that, but I'm seriously considering having the car repainted a different color next year anyway. I really just want an idea of how it flows/doesn't flow witht he rest of the car.

If you repaint your car, you won't match the green theme of ma-motorsports

I got an idea dude, how about going outside and using some of your imagination. Its not that hard I promise. What color is your car? Now imagine your b-pillar that exact color. See? easy.

Funny, because I was wondering how a paintmatched Bpillar would look earlier today

It's not always that easy. Have you ever looked in the galleries to see how a certain wheel or drop would look on your car? Sometimes it's hard for people who aren't that visually creative to really place it. I'm sure that if I felt my imagination could get a decent image of this, I wouldn't have asked the forum for help

And like I said, it doesn't need to be my color, as I'd like to get the car painted soon.

haha true that maybe it is cause my car is black. But I can still imagine it for other cars. Mongoose, too bad you can't read my mind cause I would let you know exactly how it looks.

Hey,

thanks for the pic.

I'm thinking it makes the back end look choppy. What is the thought of everyone else?

Maybe it would look better if it was painted the same color as the tint (black-ish, I guess...)

Dunno, I think the original black color makes the B pillar "disappear" sort of and gives a sleeker impression.
