Order what part? Matte black wrap? Given it is a wrap, it will probably look like crap in 10 years anyway. Take it off and let the paint fade evenly.

Also, it looses part of the magic of the removable windscreen of the 356, and that of the black pillars in subsequent speedsters.
More over, guys who do it, are doing a disservice to future owners of these cars as I seriously doubt that you can order the OEM part.
There is no part for this, it's a matte black wrap, it might have looked good in previous models with removable windscreens, but this one hasn't got a removable windscreen and especially on the bright colours, the A-pillar looks out of place when it's black. It's probably an hours job in total to wrap it back in black for future owners...

Why would the current owner be concerned with a new owner? Buy the car for you to enjoy not the next guy if he choose to sell, never understood the next guy logic.

It won't take 10 years for it to go crap, more like 2 years tops... Being a vinyl, stone chips will go right through it and on the bright colours that might look interesting

I was thinking with your spec, the A–piller wrapped in white instead of black might look good.

Thx RS11. Appears I am in the minority here but I like the matte black A-pillars. It matches/flows with the the back also in matte black so everything above the belt line is matte black. And when the top is down, the A-pillars disappear.
