Just so everyone is clear, the light color on the B & C pillars is just protective film used to protect the glossy finish during shipping. The dealer just hadn't removed it yet. You can also see the light blue/clear film covering the bottom chrome strip.

Thanks. For a minute there I thought Audi hired Chris Bangle.

Crisis averted. I thought somebody made a trip to Pep Boys to snag some of that aluminum-look cut-to-fit pillar film.

Remember when Chevy dealers would buy slap giant vinyl "SPORT" graphics on a Cavalier and charge $300 for the sport appearance package? The bowtie logo across the top of the windshield was a hundred dollar upgrade to the package. Awesome!
