Product Description
Crown Victoria 1992-2010 & Grand Marquis 1992-2011 Pillar Post Trim, Four Covers (PP32480)
PP32480's title reads "Fits 1992-2010 Ford Crown Victoria, 1992-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis," and its fitment record has those two rows. Both carry the same four tags, 4-door, Sedan, LS, GS. So a Grand Marquis sedan is listed here alongside the Crown Victoria, and its span runs one model year longer than the Ford's.
The set is four polished stainless pillar covers for $56.99, made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless. The record doesn't explain the LS and GS tags or say whether they narrow the fit, so treat them as part of the row and check your records against all four tags. If your car's paperwork shows something else, call before ordering.
PP32481 is the linked six-cover set. Its record and title list the same two rows as this one. Neither listing has notes, post names or widths, so the galleries show the difference between four and six. Count the shapes in each and hold them up to your own posts. If the four here cover what you'd like polished, order this page; if the six-cover photos fit your plan, choose PP32481.
The rows cover a long run of years without splitting them, so the photographs matter whatever your year. Quality Automotive Trims can go through them with you on 877-752-3811; quote PP32480, your make and your year.
The four covers are cosmetic. Each sits over a post along the side glass, and the doors, windows and seals keep working as before. Grade 304 resists corrosion through its alloy, not a plated finish.
They mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, which bonds to the paint or trim on the posts now. There's no drilling and none of the sedan's trim comes off. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Look over the four posts the tape will hold to. On any of these sedans, a chalky film, crazed or cracked paint, a lifting edge, or a layer of wax or polish should be sorted before fitting. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry fully and wipe with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, changing cloths until one stays clean.
Collect car soap, a bucket, alcohol, cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. Ask someone to stand back from the car and judge each cover, since a small tilt is easier to see from a few paces than from right beside the post.
On a calm, dry day in the shade, check the four against the gallery and call us about anything bent or missing. Compare the four Crown Victoria covers with the listing images. With the liner on, set each cover to its post, adjust it until the gap is even, and outline it with painter's tape. Peel the liner, place the cover inside the outline, and press firmly along its length and both edges. Then fit the next.
Should a Crown Victoria or Grand Marquis cover stand proud at either end, stop with its liner still attached and phone 877-752-3811. When the cure time has passed, all four are cleaned the way you'd clean the paint, with car soap, then dried with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 4 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.
