Since I'm going to convert from my N/A B pillar to a turbo one after spotting a link from Nigel of a set of yellow 16v badges and the fact I have new turbo badges for a few years now, but my dilmena now is, do I go for a matt black on the B pillars, or go for a nice gloss black?

Hmmm.....

Matt Black.

I like the original satin. Gloss will work well with your colour.
How about, gloss Broom Yellow?

Gloss black or black carbon wrap lacquered

I did think about it, but not quite sure how well it would work, might be too much yellow

Paul, I'm not even going to rise to your edit

or use your da polisher with some t-cut and see how they come out , Mario did a great job on mine .

I certainly wouldn't go yellow, it would be too much!

Keep some shine on there to tie in with the windows or it's going to look too patchwork quiltish of differing finishes.
I'd keep it the semi gloss satin finish and put a 30% tint in the Windows to make the whole black area tie in.

Original satin, the Halfords stuff a very good match.

I think you need to do the mirrors/feet too in gloss black if you do it, looks great but hard(er) work...

Interesting, not thought of that one

black carbon wrap then lacquered -

That does look good Iain, tempted myself. I still want to see someone strip and polish the pillars, wouldn't look right on a broomy though.

Did you have to remove the door handle, or can you put it on in place?

removed the door handel and b pillar , wrapped and lacquered , then replaced .

silly question how do u get them off the car

remove rear seats , remove seatbelts , remove rear bottom inner pannel , remove rear top inner pannel , then undo 2 bolts and the b pillar comes off .

then just reverse to put back together .

there is a how too guide -
