Wow, I see allot of complicated methods here for repairing what should be a simple fix. As always, nothing beats preventative maintainance. Those pillars are painted and coated similar to what you finish is protected with. What I have seen happen is that people go through car washes, and as we all should know, car washes can have a strong solution of chemicals spray on your finish and they can and will discolor those pillars. Also, I still see poeple talking about waxing them. *Remember the best wax only lasts 30 days on your finish. How many of us really wax our cars every month? Put on a synthetic sealant on those pillars, then next time you go through the car wash, it will have a better chance of staying protected longer. Gary
