i know its really really hard to see but this is a s13.5
and i dont really know what this part of the car is called but
its next to the windshield
and above the mirrors
that black plastic.

its like where the window is.
not the black garnish?
but that curved one that runs around the window
and in the picture he actually painted it blue all the way up to his sunroof
anyone know what part was painted?

is it blue or black? im confused.... if its black, it looks like a window visor of some sort. if its blue, its the a-pillar and possibly the trim.

how do you paint that? you paint it.

Cochran : Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, Chef's attorney would certainly want you to believe that his client wrote "Stinky Britches" ten years ago. And they make a good case. Hell, I almost felt pity myself! But, ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!

Gerald Broflovski : Damn it!

Chef : What?

Gerald : He's using the Chewbacca Defense!

Cochran :Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of two-foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, [approaches and softens] does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

i believe you are talking about the "a" pillar (the blue part between the windshield and the driver/pass window). that is painted like any other part of the car. you just strip away the window molding and prep the metal. usually people paint their roofs black on hatches because there is nice hard line break between the roof and the body (and it looks better imo).

the next vertical bar between the front and back side glass is the "b" pillar. the rear side glass and the rear windshield is divided by the "c" pillar.

i'm pretty sure i understand him....he's talking about the a-pillar

you just paint it, honey

too simple? you have to be suspended from the ceiling, then you have to operate the gun with your non-preferred foot for the job to be effective

your talking about the a-pillar, its not plastic. you can paint it the same as the rest of the car...

Isn't that Bobbyboy's old car?

Edit: After 10 seconds of searching, It is in fact Bobbyboy's old car. I would tell you to PM him, but he hasn't been on here in 5 months. His SN is "west syde greek". Give that a shot.

I believe he means the windshield wiper cowl? Anyways, with that hood its covered.

Maybe he's talking about the 1 inch thick tint that goes around the edges of the windshield.

This reminds me of that old show pictureama (i thinks that's the name), with everyone guessing what he's trying to say

I think it's funny that the OP created this thread, and has yet to post in here again four days later, meanwhile we have a page and a half of people wondering what the questions was.

man how confusing can you get, I have an idea for you, take a pic of the exact part on your 240, so we know what we are looking for, because there is alot of paint on that car. and we dont know what you are talkin about.

To answer your OG question...it's painted with paint. The same paint and process you use on the the rest of the car.
