Painted C-Pillar? Hows come some Camaros i see with a hardtop have the C-Pillar and roof painted the same color as the car and others, including mine have it and the roof painted black?

No, the term for the sail panel is C-pillar. Only 4 door cars have B-pillars

no, you guys are wrong lol. the a pillar is the front, b pillar refers to the pillar on a 4 door sedan in between the doors, and c pillar is on the back. our cars have a and c pillars.

i believe it was optional for the roof/sail panel to be body color on v8 cars. i prefer the black sail panel i think. im goin to paint the sail panel and mirrors black on the T/A

I think we should just agree to call it a damn sail panel and be done with it
