Default Outer Pillar Fading

Hey guys,
so the pillars around my windows are faded rather badly. What other options are there other than repainting them? Does anyone know somewhere that sells black vinyl or something that would look oem-esque that would go on it? Most kits I see don't have the part that would go over the window, just the pillars.

Thanks!

Have you tried a buffer pad and some wax? I did that to some fading pillars and they came out like brand new.

Both of those options plus vinyl wrap and luxury abstract. Cheapest would be Jokster 's 2nd option.
