Product Description
Chevrolet Caprice 1984-1990 Pillar Post Trim, Two Pieces (PP19102)
PP19102 is a two-piece set of polished stainless pillar post trim for the 1984-1990 Chevrolet Caprice, listed for the 4-door sedan. It's the only pillar set on this sheet, so there's no other count to weigh it against. It's listed at $40.49.
Fitment. The single row reads Chevrolet Caprice, 1984-1990, 4-door, Sedan. That's seven model years and one body tag. If your Caprice is outside that range, or isn't the 4-door sedan, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with PP19102 before ordering.
What the two covers are. The listing doesn't name the pillars they go on, and it carries no notes and no width. The product photos show the two shapes. Compare them with the uprights on your Caprice before you buy, and if they don't obviously match a panel, phone first.
Before ordering. Two quick checks prevent most returns. First, check the Caprice's year falls between 1984 and 1990, and that it's the 4-door sedan. Second, stand beside the car with the product photos open and match each of the two shapes to a panel. If either check leaves a doubt, a phone call with the part number settles it before anything ships.
Material. 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished and made in the USA. The finish is the steel's own surface, not a plated coat, so there's nothing on top to flake or peel. Ordinary washing keeps it bright.
Mounting. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. There's no drilling, and nothing is taken off the car. The Installation tab lists the tape's temperature range and cure time; follow those first.
Surface condition. On a car from these years, check the pillar surface before you fit anything. Tape can only bond as well as the face beneath it. If the finish there is cracked, flaking or loose, sort that out first, or call for advice, because a cover stuck to a failing surface won't stay put. Old wax and polish residue also build up over time and need removing completely.
Preparation. Choose a dry, mild day and a shaded spot. Unbox the two covers and check them against the photos; if either is bent, call before going further. Wash the pillar areas with mild car soap, rinse and dry them. Wipe each with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth, let it evaporate, and wipe again if the cloth picks up residue.
Fitting. Hold the first cover in place with its liner still on and check that both edges follow the panel. Mark the outline with a few strips of painter's tape. Peel the liner, set the cover on the marks and press firmly along its full length, then along each edge. Fit the second cover the same way, then step back and compare the two.
If something's off. A cover that won't sit flat should keep its liner on while you call 877-752-3811.
Care. When the cure time is up, ordinary car soap and a soft drying towel are all they need.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 2 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.
