Product Description
Honda HR-V 2016-2022 Pillar Post Trim, Four-Piece Set (PP16255)
For the 2016-2022 Honda HR-V, QAA lists two pillar post sets, and they sit far apart: this four-piece PP16255 and the ten-piece PP16256. There's nothing in between. If you want a polished stainless accent on the pillars with the smallest job and price, this is the set, at $67.99.
Four or ten?
Neither listing has notes or names the pillars it covers, so the count is the only stated difference. Six pieces separate them, which is a big gap, and the photos are the way to see what that gap means on your HR-V. Open both galleries and look at which shapes appear in the ten-piece set and not here. If the four covers in this gallery are the ones you want, you're set. If the further outlines matter to you, the ten-piece set is the better buy. Pick the four or the ten for your HR-V, and look at both galleries first.
Fitment
The single row reads Honda HR-V, 2016 to 2022, tagged 4-door and Crossover SUV. That's seven model years. If you have any doubt about your year, your records will confirm it. Anything outside that row is a question for Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811; quote PP16255.
The material
Each cover is polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. It's solid stainless, not plated plastic, so there's no chrome layer that could chip or lift. The thin gauge lets each piece lie close against the pillar.
No other HR-V parts on this sheet
The fitment sheet for this set lists only the two pillar post kits for this vehicle, so there is no matching gas door, window or rocker trim shown here to plan around. If you're after other stainless pieces for the HR-V, call and ask what's available.
Mounting
The four covers attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. You won't drill holes, unclip panels or remove factory trim. Good results come down to three things: a clean surface, the right temperature and steady pressure. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Prep, step by step in words
First, wash the pillar areas with a gentle car soap, rinse and dry. Second, wipe each spot with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth and give it a minute to evaporate. Third, take off any wax, sealant or ceramic coating wherever the tape will touch, because those layers keep tape from gripping.
Placing the covers
Hold each HR-V cover up to the gallery to see its spot. Hold one up with its liner on, check that the edges follow the pillar, and mark where it sits with a strip of painter's tape. Do the same for the rest. Then peel one liner at a time, set the cover against your marks and press firmly over its whole surface and both edges. Then fit the next cover and compare.
A four-piece set is a short job, so it suits a first try at stainless trim. If a cover won't sit flat or you can't tell where it belongs, leave the liner on and call 877-752-3811.

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.
