I never thought about the plastic ones but I assume they match the other plastic over head and such in color right?

My carpet was coming off too but I just DiNOC'd the pillars.


 
Just did this to one of my Rs yesterday after years of ignoring the ugliness, it really doesnt take that much effort, as JRL mentioned took me about really 25 or so mins and thats just me screwing around and retucking my Radar detector, dash cam and boost gauge wires. 5 bucks a pop at the junkyard, havent looked back since, yeah looks unmatched but its just faded, cant even tell the difference.

Are these available in black are were all of them grey?
 
I don't think I've ever seen them in black, but Jrey is right - user shamak pulled a set for me off an older XC and they popped on in 20-30 minutes. Same issue with me fiddling but it was because I wasn't sure what I was doing and wanted to be careful.
To do it again, it would be maybe 10-15. They look like OEM as the color is pretty close. Yes, fabric is nicer, and I have them still but for now, no more peel!

I took mine out, stripped them down, sanded, then wrapped them with 3M 1080 Carbon Fiber Wrap. It took a while to get things to lay right, had to use a heat gun for application, but it turned out awesome.
 
Replaced mine this weekend with plastic ones from Erie Volvo. Easy peasy. Thanks @Orange for the video, that helped me save the safety strap/clips.
