Product Description
Nissan Pathfinder 2013-2020 Stainless Molding Insert Kit, 0.75" (MI13527)
MI13527 puts a polished stainless line along the existing body side moldings of a 2013 through 2020 Pathfinder. It's a six-piece kit of 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, made in the USA, with a listed width of 0.75 inches. The single fitment row is tagged 4-door SUV, and the title matches.
Six pieces, one width
Every strip is listed at the same 0.75-inch width; the record doesn't mention a taper. It also doesn't say how the six pieces are distributed along the vehicle, so use the photos to see the layout. If you'd like that confirmed for your Pathfinder, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811.
Mounting
The strips mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and install directly over the existing surface. Nothing needs drilling. Have a Pathfinder question this page doesn't cover? Give us a ring at 877-752-3811.
Pathfinder trim cross-listed
Six more parts appear on this sheet, all tagged 4-door SUV:
- GC13527, a 1-piece Gas Door Cover Trim
- LP13527, a 1-piece License Plate Bezel
- PP13527, PP13528 and PP13529, Pillar Post Trim in 4, 6 and 8 pieces; the 8-piece kit is noted as including a rear triangle piece
- RD13527, a 1-piece Rear Deck Accent at 1.25 inches
RD13527 is listed as a rear deck accent for this SUV. That name is flagged, so check its photos for placement before ordering it. Each part has its own page for material and mounting.
Before you order
Look along the side of your Pathfinder at the body side moldings. They should be in good shape, without cracks, peeling or loose sections, since the tape bonds to that surface. Compare their shape with the product photos. The row covers 2013 through 2020, so check your Pathfinder's year.
Installing the strips
Sort the six pieces against the photos first and label each liner with its position using a small piece of painter's tape. Wash the moldings with soap and water, dry them, and wipe with rubbing alcohol to remove wax and residue.
Dry-fit each strip with its liner on, checking that it runs evenly along the molding. Mark both ends with painter's tape. Peel the liner, line the strip up with the marks and press firmly along its full length. Do one piece at a time, then step back and check that the line reads straight along the side of the SUV.
The Installation tab gives the full procedure and the temperature range for the tape. Choose a dry, mild day and keep the SUV out of rain and the first wash until the bond settles.
Why a molding insert
A molding insert works with trim the Pathfinder already has. It isn't new bodywork; it lays a thin stainless strip on the existing moldings, which is why the record says it installs over the existing surface with tape alone.
Stainless care
Polished stainless needs only mild soap, water and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and steel wool, which can scratch the finish.

Installation tips: Body Molding Insert Trim Kit
- Unpack all 6 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
