Product Description
Acura TSX 2009-2014 Pillar Post Trim, Four Polished Stainless Covers (PP29290)
Acura TSX owners will find more than one pillar set in the catalog, and the years decide which one is yours. PP29290 is listed for the TSX from 2009-2014, tagged 4-door, Sedan. Pillar sets for earlier TSX years exist as separate listings and aren't linked to this page. TSXs dated 2009 through 2014 take four covers.
This set is four polished covers in 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, for $56.99. Its only linked sibling is PP29291, a six-cover set for the same 2009-2014 sedan.
The two listings don't name their pillars and give no widths, so the galleries carry the comparison. Look at every outline and picture it along your Acura's side windows. If the four shapes here cover the posts you'd like in polished steel, this page is the order. If the six-cover pictures are closer to your plan, order PP29291 instead.

What the covers do is purely visual. Each slim panel sits over a post between the side windows, and the sedan's doors, glass and seals carry on untouched. The 304 grade resists corrosion through its own chemistry rather than a plated surface.
Each cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. It bonds to the TSX's posts as they are now, so you won't be drilling or prising off trim. The Installation tab sets out the temperature range and cure time.
That bond depends on the existing finish, so check all four posts closely. A chalky trace on your fingertip, a lattice of fine cracks, an edge starting to lift, or a sheen of wax should each be sorted first. Then wash with car soap, rinse, dry, and wipe the posts with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths until a fresh one stays spotless.
You'll need car soap and a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a few lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. A helper a few paces from the Acura can tell you whether the covers match. Polished stainless is used for all four of the TSX's covers.
Choose a calm, dry day and keep the car in shade. Check the four covers against their photos and phone us about any that are bent or missing. Hold the TSX covers against the gallery. With the backing still on, hold each cover to its post and slide it until the reveal is even all round, then fence it with painter's tape. Peel the backing, settle the cover inside its fence, and bear down firmly from end to end and along both edges. Fit the next cover at once and compare the two.
A cover that lifts at one end stays on its backing while you ring 877-752-3811. When the cure time has passed, wash the covers with car soap along with the paint and dry them with a soft towel. Allow an unhurried session, most of it spent cleaning and marking.

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.
