May I suggest a vinyl wrap on you "b" pillars to get rid of the silver.
Will look cleaner and I suggest vinyl as it can be removed later without damaging your original paint.
Maybe black or carbon fibre???

I agree, but I'd just mask it well and spray it with black plasti dip. Bam, done. Peel it off if you don't like it later.
Look at how well the 'pillarless' look works on the other golf in the photo...

I didn't even notice that! Haha TBH it's actually kind of converting me on it. I might try it if I can find some time, see how it goesI agree, but I'd just mask it well and spray it with black plasti dip. Bam, done. Peel it off if you don't like it later.

Maybe very ghetto but if you just want to see what it may look like, stick some black electrical tape on it, stand back and have a look.

I Agree with blacking the b pillars makes it look smoother. That and removing the rub strips but thats a bit more messing around. Check sig for what it looks like

Also, it will obviously look a lot more 'seamless' with tinted windows, but that's another decision.. And I don't mind the un-tinted clear windows for a change.. Kind of works with the silver body.
