Product Description
Dodge Nitro 2007-2011 Four-Cover Pillar Post Trim (PP47940)
Four polished stainless covers for the Dodge Nitro's pillar posts make up PP47940. They're 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, and the set is $67.99 for model years 2007-2011. The record lists a single fitment row: Dodge Nitro 2007-2011, tagged 4-door, SUV.
Five years of the four-door Nitro SUV are covered. Check the year, and if your Nitro sits outside 2007 to 2011, or you're not sure, call before ordering.
The linked six-cover set for the same SUV is PP47941. Neither record names the posts or lists widths, and neither carries notes, so compare the two galleries to see which posts the six-piece reaches beyond these four.
The record also links a good spread of other Nitro trim, including LB47940, a one-piece license bar above the plate noted "With Logo Cut Out," LP47940, a license plate bezel, and TH47940 and TH47941, two rocker panel kits. Their own pages carry their fitment tags and notes.
Before peeling, stand at the Nitro with the gallery open and pair each of the four photos with its post. Hold back anything you can't place.
You can reach Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811. Quote PP47940 and your year, and we'll go through the four shapes with you.
The covers are cosmetic. They trim posts beside the side glass and leave the doors, windows and weatherseals working as they always have. 304 stainless resists corrosion by its alloy, so there's no plating.
Each cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape onto the paint or trim on its post now. You won't drill into the Nitro or take any trim off. The temperature range and cure time are on the Installation tab.
The tape holds only as well as the surface it's on. Remove wax and polish from all four posts, and repair any chalky, cracked or flaking paint. Wash with car soap, rinse and dry fully, then wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth until a fresh fold comes away clean. Check for dents by touch.
Lay out what the job needs before you start on the Nitro: low-tack painter's tape for the numbers and outlines, a soft pencil, a bottle of rubbing alcohol, a bucket of car-soap water and a small pile of lint-free cloths. A sturdy step stool gives you a square-on view of the upper end of each post, which makes the reveal easier to judge.
Pick a dry, still day and keep the SUV in shade. Check the four against their photos and tell us about any damage. Number the posts on painter's tape. With its liner on, place the first cover, ease it until the margin is even and frame it with tape. Peel, set it in the frame and press firmly from end to end and down both edges. Look it over before the next.
If one of the four rocks or lifts at a corner, stop with its liner on and call 877-752-3811. Fully cured, the covers wash with car soap and water and dry 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.
