Chrome pillars on the LS look very very tacky IMO.

I think JP makes some kind of pillar.. other than that I haven't heard of any others.

honestly, the best looking chrome pillars i ever saw were either polished factory supports, or vinyl'd. the tack on pieces generally won't sit flush. for the rear trunk bar, just use good quality 3m adhesive.

Fabulous makes carbon fiber pillars and our cl vendor carson toyota carries them. I'll probablyget some of these before the year is up. I always thought they looked pretty tough on the E55 Benz. http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=2169

Yea.... Thats what I was thinking too, course the pics ive seen have all looked good but Doesnt really look like the pics are actually the 3M applied chrome trim.
