A pillar colour

[Defender50th]

My A pillars are in great oriconal condition, I want to spray them to keep them protected.

My question is what colour are they? The dont seem to be shiney like the body. Are that a differect shade of black or baluga with no laquer or what?

Many thanks for any help,

I suspect (and this is gut instinct) that they are both beluga black AND laquered... they just seem to fade much faster than the rest of the paintwork.

I had mine (on no.86) repaired a couple of years ago and the guys just painted them to look like the rest of the car... it looked like the dogs dangly bits then

got to admit i used black hammerite on mine. doesn't look out of place and is shiney without having to laquer. just lazy i suppose!
