chrome pillars...yay or nay

These are chrome pillars made by Sessions. They are excellent quality. I didn't stick them on yet, just placed them on the pillar to see if I like them or not. I'm still not sure.... What do you guys think???

First where I got the idea from:

IMO they work best with untinted windows. If the windows are tinted, it draws too much attention to the chrome sills. Just put it on the B-pillar and leave the little window sill off. Thats your best bet.

Looks great, as does the rest of your car. Chrome b pillars look good, as long as there isnt too much other chrome on the car.

YUCK!!!!! That's like putting chrome fender trim on your ride.....the windows should not draw your attention away from the rest of the car...and putting chrome on them makes them stand out like a sore thumb......

I consider them to be Ghetto!!!! or the equivalent to ricing out a honda.

What is ghetto? Arent those small shack like apartments that the guvment made the japanese live in, in hawaii after pearl harbor, or some undesirable places in big cities? And in all honestly, "rice" is really such a stupid term, I hate hearing it. (And I know Im not the only one.) No disrespect towards you bro, in no way at all. But whats wrong with chrome rim? In moderation, it's beautiful, especially with the right color scheme. Anyways, if chrome b-pillars detract from that car, then I must be blind to the beautiful white, silver, black, and lowered-ness, ( huh?!) then I must need glasses. Aint nothin wrong with them b-pillars man. And please, dont remove the door visors. Absolutely beautiful!!!

If i see chrome pillars on any car, I wait for some black pimp to get out of the car!

If you like chrome pillars YOU HAVE NO SENSE OF VIP STYLE!

THERE COMES A TIME WHERE YOU GO OVER THE TOP WITH THE CHROME AND PILLARS TAKE IT WAY OVER THE TOP.

WHY DON'T EVERYBODY WHO LIKES CHROME PILLARS PUT SOME CURB FELLERS ON THERE RIDE TOO!!!!!!!!!!

wow, that's a racist remark....

I guess you've never picked up a VIPCar magazine or VIPstyle magazine....chrome pillars are on a lot of the VIP cars....but then again, "you're from the midwest so you may be a little behind on the VIP scene"<---- see how that comment was generalizing and sounded stupid??

not everyone has to like the chrome pillars, that's why I put up the poll to express your opinion but generalizing that chrome pillars are for black pimps and not part of the VIP scene are totally wrong.

I like chrome door pillars on white or silver cars. But on a black car i think itll disturb the flow of the car, especially if you have chrome door handles already.

BTW widenlowy33 no one is questioning your opinion about the pillars...its your remark about being for black pimps and that chrome pillars NOT being VIP style...There's a few things on VIP cars that I don't like. Does that make them NOT VIP style?

I think Putting curb feelers on your car is one of the dumbest remarks that could have been made ... Or the Black pimp coming out of a car ... putting that out there is on your discretion ...


anyways I like them But would love to see your car like the first one ... on air , and alos those Jp wheels you are talking about would be sick ...

I understand why your not going huge lips or crazy because U have A nice super charger to have fun with !

I say they look coo ... Not for every or for a first Mod, but you see what I mean ...

idk. i check back on this thread and keep looking at them to see if they 'grow on me' and i think they look alright. i think what throws them off are the wind deflector things on the doors. with those removed, they'd blend well.

but i have to ask.. looks like you've got a little 'agricultural' setup in your garage, eh? i'm curious what's behind that aluminum foil under the ultraviolent grow lights. :coolugh:

This was a model home so the garage was an office...which explains the crown moulding and it also means it has its own AC unit for the garage...how many peeps get to work on their ride in the garage in air conditioning? :biggthumpup:
