Color-matched c-pillars (pic)

In case anyone was wondering what they looked like, here is a pic I took at the Frankfurt IAA on Wednesday. The Clubbie is Eclipse Gray. Looks pretty sweet and I'm glad I opted for it.

hmm ... could be my monitor but most likely its because the c-pillar is plastic ... but the colors don't quite match perfectly with the other panels (rear door and side panel)

It's the lighting. I didn't play with the exposure to get it true to color. It was just a quickie to show how it looks without all that silver or black back there. IRL it's a dead on match.
