Pillar color/texture options

What if you buy an almost perfect Clubman on the lot - except you don't like the silver top - i.e. want black or body color or?

-are there aftermarket options yet for the front and rear pillars?
-Or do they come off easily enough and can they be painted?
(I see the woody post below on the low rider, seems as if Rally -removed and painted okay?)
-any know graphic options?

- i can paint the roof, have doen that on my Hardtop -easy to mask and squirt or can apply graphics

Thanks for any links/input. Just considering how bad it may be, as I don't like silver roof/pillars, and have found the two 09's waiting in silver -

Removal of the top 4 pieces is super easy. Only takes a few minutes and requires simple tools.

Removal of the bottom piece along the bumper is a bit more involved and requires removing the bumper. Still something that can be done though.
