Pillar Coloring?

I actually quite like the red. Maybe it's my inner ricer speaking. The red does need something to tie it together though. Red calipers would be a good start. I would also recommend painting the door handles to match the body so it doesn't stand out so much and ruin the look. Gloss red vinyl will probably get you closest to what you want.

The look you're describing isn't high-end per se. The best I could describe it would be something of a design element to give the car a bit more character. Some people will get it, some won't.

yes indeed it may not say high end all over it definitely character. I did a walk-around on my car to picture this idea and I figured in person it would be cool if it were someone elses car and not mine lol! ALTHOUGH... I would like to do a carbon-fiber maybe.

I do like the carbon-fiber although im not a fan of the decal but it could work with the right decal or emblem placed there.

You know i do like the small red vinyl strip on the mirror... They did it on the 2014 Nismo and on that nice supercar in this post if you look closely... Maybe i will rock that on my craftsquare mirrors once i decide to get them....
