Flat black B-pillars
I use the B-pillar as a place to put my hand when closing the front doors. The fact that it's "flat black" means no finger-prints on the shiney stuff. (My X is black, too.)
However, on the lighter colored Xs, painting the B-pillar the same finish as the body might look a bit (dare I say it?) mini-van-ish!
The contrasting color works visually IMO.
