Product Description
Chevrolet Malibu Sedan 2004-2007 Pillar Post Trim, Four Covers (PP44105)
PP44105 is a four-cover polished stainless pillar set for the Chevrolet Malibu sedan of 2004-2007. It costs $56.99, and the covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA. The listing's one fitment row reads Chevrolet Malibu 2004-2007, tagged 4-door, Sedan.
Those four model years and the four-door sedan body are the whole fitment. Compare both against your car. If your Malibu is from a different year or registered as another body, this listing doesn't include it; call us before ordering.
Three Malibu parts are linked here and sold separately: PP44106, the six-cover pillar set for the same row, and two rocker panel kits, TH44105 (an upper kit) and TH44106 (a lower kit). Each has its own page and details.
Comparing this set with PP44106 means looking at the photos, since neither listing has notes, post names or widths. Count the shapes in each gallery and match them to your Chevy's posts. Choose the four if they cover the posts you're after, or PP44106 if you'd like six.
Questions go to Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811. Mention PP44105 and your year and we'll help you decide between the four-cover and six-cover sets.
The covers are trim for the posts next to the side windows, and nothing more. The Malibu's doors, glass and weatherstrip work just as before. Grade 304 stainless resists corrosion through its composition, not a plated surface.
All four mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape onto the posts' existing paint or trim. No drilling is involved, and no trim needs to come off. Check the Installation tab for the temperature range and cure time.
A firm bond depends on a clean, sound surface. Remove wax and polish, and fix any paint that's chalky, crazed or lifting. Wash the posts with car soap, rinse, dry them thoroughly, and wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, using a fresh fold until it comes up clean. Feel for dents along the way; polished steel shows them clearly.
Gather what you need before you open the box: a bucket with car soap, a bottle of rubbing alcohol, several lint-free cloths, a roll of painter's tape and a pencil for marks. If a friend can stand off by the Malibu's front fender and watch while you hold each cover, they'll spot a crooked line long before you would.
Choose shade and a calm, dry day. Compare the four with the gallery and call us about anything bent or missing. With the liner on, hold a cover to the post its photo shows, move it until the reveal is even and outline it in painter's tape. Peel, seat the cover in the outline and press firmly along its length and both edges. Step back, check it against the photo, then fit the next one.
If a Malibu cover rocks or won't lie flush, stop pressing, keep the liner on and ring 877-752-3811. After the cure, wash the four with car soap and water and dry them 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.
