Default I very seldom see A pillars like mine.

I love orange and like to cover anything in black with it:

Looks good with the orange top and B-pillar ... better than the flat black plastic for sure!

Very nice!

I have mine painted likes yours, except mine are black because my car is Cyber Gray. Black matched my 'glass' top and black 'halo'.

GM probably only kept it black because it was cheaper that way. My C6 is white, but everything above the door line is black, so it looks good.

I carbon fiber wrapped mine when I did the roof.
It changed the whole look of the car.

There is a DIYS which shows you how on this forum. Only special tool you need is a rivet gun.
