i was told by a reliable vxl guru near medan(J200RSA ) on here just spray itwith satin black paint i did and it looks mint
word of caution though you'll need 4 or 5 tins
and if your gunna do the sunroof blind (sliding bit) you'll need to drop the full sunroof to get it out.
with the pillars plastic filler primer then spray satin black 1 or 2 tins will do them all

dont try the black dye, i bought 2 spray cans of it and although it looks good when you spray it, once its dried and soaked in its hardly black, i used 3 or 4 spray cans of gloss black from poundland and its much better, even though its gloss it dries matt
for the pillars i took them to work, sand blasted them on low pressure to roughen them up , sprayed with poundland white primer then poundland gloss black, came out fine

A friend did spray paint on his 3 series roof lining and it still looked great over a year later.
