Product Description
PP27720: Mazda CX-7 Pillar Trim, Four Polished Covers (2007-2012)
PP27720 is a set of four stainless pillar covers for the Mazda CX-7 from 2007-2012, listed for the 4-door, SUV. The price is $67.99, and each cover is cut from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel in the USA.
The fitment record is clean: one model, six consecutive years, and a title that agrees with it. Your records will confirm the year. If the CX-7 in your driveway was built outside that span, the listing doesn't claim it, so ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and mention PP27720 before ordering.
Three pillar listings are linked for this vehicle: this four-piece set, PP27721 with six covers and PP27722 with eight. They don't say which pillars each set dresses or how wide the pieces are, and that's the question to settle before buying. Scroll through each gallery and picture the shapes on your own posts. The four-piece set is the lowest-cost of the three, which makes sense if its photos already show the look you're after. Pick one; ordering two could leave you with pieces for the same posts.
Fitting these changes nothing mechanical. A cover is a polished skin over a post between the side windows. The doors still close as before, and the glass and seals aren't disturbed. Because 304 stainless resists corrosion in its own right, with no plating to give way, a wash with the rest of the paint is all it needs.
Attachment is by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface, so you won't need a drill or any trim tools. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and the cure time to respect.
Start with the posts. Tape bonds to the surface it touches, so whatever is on the post now becomes the foundation. Look for faded or powdery patches, wax, cracks and edges that have begun to curl, and put those right. Clean with car soap and water, dry the posts completely, then wipe each with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth.
Unbox the covers and check all four against the gallery photos. If one is bent or missing, call before going further. Use the CX-7 photos to place each cover. Offer each up with the backing intact and mark around it with painter's tape. When all four outlines look even from the front and rear, peel and press the first cover, working firmly along its length and both edges, then move on to the next. Stainless steel is the material for all four.
If a cover won't settle flat, keep its backing on and call 877-752-3811. Work on a dry, mild day in shade, and keep the CX-7 out of rain until the cure time has passed. A step stool helps if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground.
A last check before you pay: open the four-piece gallery on your phone while standing next to the CX-7 and give each shape a post. If any cover seems to have no obvious place, a quick call settles it.

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.
