Are your pillars covered with black tape?
If so, the tape can be removed.
There was a bulletin that the tape was to be removed and the pillar painted black. Or just leave it the body color.

Anyone have a pic of one that is red with the pillars changed to red? Ill need to have mine repainted soon. They didn't do that good of a job when they changed it from the nasty tape. They replaced the tape 3 times before the TSB to change to paint came through. Got mine in 95.

A guy named Compact6 on bimmerforums.com has made lots of carbon fiber bits for his ti including the b pillar covers. From everything I hear he is very quality. Check him out- he sells the cf stuff too.
