If all goes well tomorrow, I will be the new owner of an '05 Grand Cheorkee Limited in Deep Beryl Green, and yes that thang's gotta Hemi innit. I've always thought the pillars on WKs should be blacked out rather than painted—that little ridge at the top of the pillars lines up with the top of the windows.
This issue is more pronounced on a lighter color, but I still feel like the pillars are crying out for black trim. I found some !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! that cost 30 bucks for a set. They're basically vinyl decals, which seem easier to apply than going to the trouble of masking off the windows and spraying plastidip.
On a dark color like this, the difference is subtle, but I think the blacked out pillars make for a smoother overall look. Anyone else agree with me?

You're going the wrong way with it.
Congrats on the new-to-you Jeep. Private party or dealer?

Haha I hate tacked-on chrome shit like that. It's at a dealer. I'm working late tomorrow so hitting them up in the morning.
But seriously, thoughts on the blacked out pillars?

The blacked-out pillars look nice. My truck has blacked-out window frames.
Part of me sees a green Cherokee, and wants to do this to it:
I don't even care that it's the wrong body style for that. Green with woodgrain. It'd basically be a 4x4 Hemi woody wagon - a descendant of the venerable AMC Eagle.

Doesn't make much of a difference IMO. But if you like it, go ahead.
And Congratulations!

I think it looks better without the black-out treatment.
Either way, needs woodgrain!
