Product Description
Audi A4 2001-2005 Pillar Post Trim, Four Pieces, Tagged AllRoad & Quattro (PP25620)
PP25620 is a four-piece set of polished stainless pillar covers whose title reads simply "Audi A4". The fitment row is more specific: Audi A4, 2001-2005, with the tags 4-door, AllRoad and Quattro. Those two further tags are what to check against your car before ordering. The set is $67.99, made in the USA, and linked to a six-piece alternative, PP25621, which carries the same tags.
What exactly do the AllRoad and Quattro tags restrict? The listing doesn't explain them; it just lists them on the row. So if your A4 isn't described by those tags, or you're not sure whether it is, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and quote PP25620. Other A4 pillar listings exist in the catalog and aren't linked to this one, so don't assume they're interchangeable.
On the choice between four and six covers, the listings are silent: no pillar names, widths or notes. Compare the two galleries and look for how the shapes differ. If the four here match the areas you want in polished steel, this is the shorter job. If the six-piece photos look closer, choose that set. Pairing A4 sets isn't intended; ring 877-752-3811 if you'd like both.
The covers are cosmetic, dressing the posts between the side windows without changing anything structural. They're cut from 26 gauge 304 stainless and polished; with no plating, there's no coating to peel, and the steel resists corrosion. Soapy water keeps them bright.
On the A4, allroad or quattro, each cover attaches with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing posts, with no holes and no trim removed. For the A4, the temperature range and cure time sit on the Installation tab.
On a car from 2001-2005, the post finish deserves a careful look. The tape bonds to it, so chalky residue, hairline cracks, a lifting corner or old wax will all work against you. Repair the damage and strip the wax, then wash, dry and wipe with rubbing alcohol until a fresh lint-free cloth stays clean.
Supplies are simple: mild car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a stack of lint-free cloths and a roll of painter's tape. A helper is handy for holding covers.
Pick a dry, still day and a shady spot. Unpack the four covers and compare each with the photos, calling if one is bent or missing. The A4 product photos show where each cover sits. Offer each up with the backing on, nudge it into line and trace around it with painter's tape. Peel the backing, set the cover into its outline, and press hard along its length and both edges. Fit the next cover right away and compare the two.
If an Audi cover won't lie flat, leave the backing on and phone 877-752-3811. After curing, car soap and a soft towel keep the covers clean.
Give it an unhurried session; prep takes longer than fitting. Before buying, take the gallery out to your A4, match each of the four shapes to a post, and check the year.

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.
