Product Description
Acura RLX 2014-2020 Pillar Post Trim, Four-Piece Stainless Set (PP14200)
For the Acura RLX sedan, QAA lists two pillar post sets, and PP14200 is the four-piece one. The covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, made in the USA. The fitment row reads Acura RLX 2014-2020, tagged 4-door and Sedan, the same as the title, and the set attaches with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface.
Start with the choice. The other set, PP14201, has six pieces. Both listings are note-free, and neither says which pillars it covers or whether a triangle piece is included. So you'll make the decision with your eyes, not the spec sheet: bring up both photo galleries, count the distinct shapes, and see which ones appear in only one of the two. If this four-piece set covers the posts you care about, it's the lighter job. If you want the other shapes, choose the six-piece set. Compare photos before buying both.
Then check fit. The row is narrow and clear: the 4-door RLX sedan, 2014 through 2020. Acura lists the four-piece RLX set against model years 2014 through 2020. If your RLX falls outside that span, call 877-752-3811 with PP14200 before ordering.
The mounting needs no tools that cut or drill. Each cover sits on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the surface that's already there, and nothing comes off the car.
The material is worth a sentence. Polished 304 stainless is the same metal from face to back, so there's no plating to chip, and the 26 gauge sheet keeps each cover thin and close to the pillar.
Prep is where good installs are won. Wash the pillars with a gentle shampoo and a soft mitt, rinse off every trace of soap, and dry with a clean towel. Wipe each pillar with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it flash. Wax, sealant or a ceramic coating where tape will sit has to come off first, because the tape grips the top layer.
The fitting goes like this. Leave the backing on each cover and hold it to a pillar, looking along both edges until it follows the post without rocking. Put a strip of painter's tape at each end and pencil the door on the backing. After all four are mapped, peel one backing, set the cover inside its marks and press firmly from end to end and along both edges. Fit the next cover, then step back a few paces and compare. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and cure time.
Choose a dry, mild day and a shaded spot or a garage. A step stool helps with the upper ends of the pillars.
When the box arrives, count four covers against the photos before you start. If one won't settle, keep its backing on, try a different pillar, and give Quality Automotive Trims a call if it still won't fit. Afterward, mild soap and a soft cloth keep the polish bright. The Acura rows as cataloged are on the Fitment tab.

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.
