Ok looking for some help please. The rear outer pillars on my blobeye need sorting out the black has gone and the silver is now showing through so I want to get it sorted. Questions I have are is it an easy job to sort myself and if so what wrap do I need to buy in order for it to look as standard as possible.

You can mask the car and rattle can them.
you can easily remove them and rattle can / professionally paint them.

Or you can wrap them.

Here's how to take them off, mine are getting bad too on my Hawk.
I may buy original from Subaru, or maybe MattyB on here has some as he's a well known breaker.

I thought the rear ones were separate as you can see a join line, maybe they do come apart somehow.....

I have some spare in my garage but they have a lot of glue on them where the wind deflectors was glued on.
should bin them really.

Do the C pillars come off from the rest of the long trim?

No. Its one long metal strip

Sorry thought you meant the end triangle bit.
I broke one of those plastic trims as I was told to just pull it off. I found on the other side pushing up while pulling helped it pop off.
I still ordered and installed new.

I would rather wrap them as that is probably the easier option. I was just wondering what colour black wrap would I need to match the rest of the car.

I used satin black vinyl a few years ago as mine were almost down to the metal underneath from weathering. It looks spot on and only took ten minutes a side. Make sure you've got a sharp scalpel to get a good edge.

thanks fella, did you buy it off eBay and did you need a heat gun also or do without?

It was some stuff I had leftover but it was pretty much the same as other stuff I've bought in other colours off eBay so yeah, EBay is absolutely fine for sourcing it. The photos below are before/after. No heat required, the curves aren't significant enough to need it.
