I don't like em.

I don't think they look right with cars that don't have the chrome trim around the windows.

For 5¢ more, you could buy a mod you can actually feel and appreciate.

The problem I have with these is the perpendicular nature of the pieces. Any accent to a car is more pleasing to the eye if it's parallel to the ground, running the length of the car or part of it, not cutting the linear flow...That's why pinstripes, although not normally appreciated here, are a subtle addition that can bring out a different look of a car without making it look over the top.

Chrome handles would look much better then pillars...

I have those on my ride. But I have the ones that go all around the window and chrome door handles. I bought them from a different company that had 14 or 12 pc set, not just the pillars. I had them for over 3 years now and still look good. But like the guys said you will get over them. I'm thinking of blackin them out again but thats cuz I want to change my car's color to red..

What's the best option to black out the pillars. Ive seen some black carbon fiber covers on ebay. Anybody know if those are worth it?
