I'm still mad that when I ordered my 550i the build sheet didn't show the anthracite headlibner as an option. I had it on two either BMWs and it's amazing what a difference the "ceiling" color makes... But I forgot all about it and now I can't justify the tons of money they want to change after the fact. So today I dyed my A-pillars black. Against the black dashboard and trim (leather is auburn) it looks fantastic and almost fools me since the transition from back to light grey (stock headliner)now happens above your eye level.

What a difference- now if I can figure out how to remove the B and C pillars I'll do the same.

Anyone try this?

Good job.

What method/product did you use to dye the pillars ? Do you have any pics ?
