Product Description
Lexus IS Sedan 2014-2020 Pillar Post Trim, Four Polished Stainless Pieces (PP14102)
Here's what the catalog tells us about PP14102, and what it leaves for the photos. It's a four-piece pillar post set in polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. It's listed for one row, the Lexus IS from 2014 through 2020, tagged 4-door and Sedan, and the title matches. It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface.
What it doesn't tell us is which pillars the four covers dress. That's also true of the only other pillar set for this IS, PP14103, which has six pieces. Neither listing has a note, and neither mentions a triangle or mirror piece. To choose, compare the two IS galleries: count the shapes and note which outlines appear only in the six-piece set. If what you see here covers the posts you want, the four-piece set is the quicker job. For the Lexus IS, pick one listing and compare the galleries before considering a second.
Is my IS on the row?
The row says Lexus IS, 2014-2020, 4-door Sedan. It doesn't break the IS down by trim, so the catalog treats every IS sedan in that range the same for this part. If your car is a different body or outside those years, call 877-752-3811 with PP14102 before buying. Your records show the model year; check it rather than relying on memory.
No drilling, no removal
The covers ride on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the surface that's already there. You won't drill, and you won't take anything off the doors.
About polished 304
The shine is the metal itself, not a coating, so there's nothing to flake. A 26 gauge sheet keeps each cover slim on the pillar while holding its formed shape.
Clean like you mean it
Wash the pillars with a gentle soap and plenty of water. Rinse, dry with a soft towel, then wipe with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it evaporate. If you've waxed the car or had it coated, remove that where the tape will sit. Tape holds to the top layer, so a coating left in place becomes the weak link.
Four covers, in order
Leave the liners on to start. Offer each cover up to a pillar and look along its edges. When it follows the post without rocking, mark the ends with painter's tape and pencil the door on the liner. Once the four are mapped, peel one liner, set it between the marks, and press firmly from end to end and along both edges. Do the next cover after that. Step back and compare. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and cure time.
Time, place, help
A dry day in shade or a garage. A step stool for the upper ends. A friend a few steps back to judge level, if one's around.
Delivery check
Count four covers against the photos before you begin. If one won't settle, keep its liner on, try another pillar, then call Quality Automotive Trims if it still doesn't fit. Mild soap and a soft cloth keep it bright afterward.

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.
