My car is doing it too!!!!

Ok as all of you know our cars our known for door pillars peelings. Mine are doing it too and REALLY bad. Now I know your all going to be why didnt you search but I did and I have a different question. Now I dont mind the way the pillars look under the top paint. I did serach and my question is is there a way to peal off all the top paint and just have the underneath of the paint. I like the way the top paint looks and the underneath isnt bad either just mixed it looks horrible. So is there a way to peal off the top paint?

Go to the store and get some gloss black spray paint. Sand them and paint them. There are DIYs on how to do it
