Default Interior B pillar dirty?

Has anyone notice their B pillar (column of the car that is next to you when you sit in the front seats) is pretty dirty? I drive with my windows down always and noticed this after about 3 months. This should have been though of by Scion and they should have put a dark ceiling top rather than the light beige.

try just brushing that off with your hand.. or rubbing your hand over the B pillar a few times. It happens to me all the time and i just rub my hands over it and the dust falls off. looks almost new everytime i do it. your hands will get dirty but oh well. lol better your hands then the B pillar.

They say you shouldn't use upholstry cleaner on it,

But I've successfully used Folex in SMALL amounts.

Get some of the pink Folex stuff, spray a little on a white towel, then blot or gently rub the dirty areas.

My A Pillars were stained with something when I bought my tC used. My brother suggested Mr Clean Magic Eraser. It's a small sponge like material. Wet it, then scrub the dirty material. The huge stain is now GONE. Seriously, the stuff works wonders. They're cleap, too. 4 bucks for a two pack. I cleaned a few other spots in the car, too. Haven't even had to use the 2nd sponge yet. Try it.
