Default Stainless steel pillar posts

I was looking on ebay and saw someone is selling stainless steel pillar posts for the doors of the gs, does anyone here have these or have pictures of a car with them? The picture they show looks good but the view is too close to get an overall idea of how they look on the car.

Thanks guys,
Dave

Yea I thought about that too. If they look good enough though I will probably give them a shot anyways, it seems like they could be taken off pretty easily if they start looking bad.

I thought some on ebay for chrome-like decals....in any case...it detracts from the rest of the car...I would pass on these...imo.

Just from the pics, these appear to be one those mods that works with certain colors. The white GS looks nice, at least at that angle. On the black GS they do break up the flow of the car. Tough call, IMO, only on light colored cars such as white and antique bronze.
