Spot on Deano, all GTI's were cream headlining and pillars. The only ones that came with black pillars and headlining where the highline VR6's.

i take it they do make 3dr vr6s?! cos cant find any... and 5dr pillars arent gonna fit my 3dr?!

5doors are different to 3 doors. Just get a spare set and retrim/paint them it's not that hard! and probably much cheaper then a VR6 set.

Sprayed mine recently and was very happy happy with the outcome. Thoroughly clean then spray with an etch primer, I then spayed with a satin matt acrylic paint (forgot how many coats:3 cans worth?  :tongue:). Leave to dry and bobs your uncle. Did try lacquering one bit but had to strip twice as ended up being to glossy or to matt :sad:.
Hope this helps

You could always retrim them..

They do a headliner retrim kit with the glue etc.

I used it for mine and it looks great..
