Fresh wash & wax, and chrome pillars?

Hi all,

So i gave the baby-g a fresh wash and wax today. My GF also got me chrome pillars as a bday gift, so i had to throw them on. They're growing on me....






Just thought i'd post these pics to show everyone the much debated pillars... and i'm proud of my baby-g

they would look good on a chrome car... like what OC Choppers did in the Napa commercial.

As long as you have chrome rims, the pillars look good. Otherwise they would stand out too much. Overall, nice ride.

Thanks for the comments. I agree, it only works with the chrome wheels. So much for tinting the windows though, that would look lost

I think it would look better with some black tap along the inside to separate the two windows. It doesn't look right to have thin chrome around the windows and then a big fat chunk of chrome on one side. Not bad, though.

i'd love to see a pic. I actually really like the taillights. They were spray tinted, i didn't use the overlays. and i've always thought the g looked like it was missing something without the spoiler, but that's just my personal preference.

My next step is the Motordyne 1/2 spacer that i just ordered this afternoon
