Product Description
Buick Encore 2013-2022 Twelve-Piece Stainless Pillar Post Trim (PP53564)
PP53564 is the largest Buick Encore pillar set in the record, with twelve polished stainless covers for $100.99. The covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and the fitment row reads Buick Encore 2013-2022, tagged 4-door, SUV.
The four smaller sets on the same row are PP53560 (four covers), PP53561 (six), PP53562 (eight) and PP53563 (ten). No set has a note, and no set lists its posts or widths.
So while twelve is the highest count on offer, the record can't tell you what the further covers reach compared with the ten-cover set. It's worth spending a few minutes with the galleries before ordering. Look at the twelve-cover photos next to the ten, work out where each cover goes, and then match that against the posts you can see on your own Encore. If a piece in the photos leaves you unsure, ring us and we'll go through it with you; we'd much rather help you pick the right count up front.
The row covers ten model years, 2013 to 2022. Twelve covers for an Encore of 2013 to 2022. No other Encore trim is linked to this record. Quality Automotive Trims is on 877-752-3811; quote PP53564 and your year.
All twelve are cosmetic. They change the look of the posts without touching how the doors, side glass or seals work. The 304 stainless keeps corrosion away through its alloy rather than a plated finish.
Every cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape pressed directly onto the post's existing surface. No drill is needed and nothing comes off the Encore. The Installation tab lists the temperatures and cure time, and with twelve covers it's worth planning the day around them.
The clean is the biggest job. Start with soapy water on every post, then a rinse and a thorough dry. Take off any wax, sealant or polish. Repair paint that's powdery, crazed or peeling, because the tape holds only as well as that layer. Finish each post with rubbing alcohol on clean lint-free cloth until it comes away spotless, and run a finger along for dents. Set out painter's tape, a pencil and a towel.
First, choose a calm, dry day out of the sun, lay out the twelve against the gallery and report any damage. Second, dry-fit each cover with its liner on, ease it until the margin is even and mask round it, numbering the masks. Third, take them one at a time: liner off, into the mask, firm pressure end to end and along both edges. Fourth, once all twelve are on, lift the masks and look along every border. Take a break partway through if you need one.
With twelve covers to place, take each one slowly. If any of them won't sit right against its post on your Encore, keep its liner where it is and ring 877-752-3811; describing which post it belongs to helps us answer quickly. Once the tape has cured, the Buick's posts can be washed along with everything else using car soap and water, then dried with a soft, clean towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 12 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.
