Product Description
Nissan Kicks 2018-2020 Stainless Pillar Post Trim, 4 Pieces (PP18560)
PP18560 fits the 2018-2020 Nissan Kicks, a 4-door SUV, with four polished stainless pillar covers. There's one thing you should know first: this sheet links a second Kicks pillar set, PP18561, and it is also listed as four pieces for the same years and body. The catalog doesn't say how the two differ. This page explains what we can confirm and how to tell them apart before you buy.
What the listing confirms
The fitment row reads Nissan Kicks, 2018-2020, 4-door, SUV, which covers three model years. The covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, made in the USA. They're held by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and go directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling and no trim to remove. This set is listed at $67.99.
What it doesn't say
There are no notes on either Kicks set: no width, no shape detail and no list of which pillars the covers sit on. With the same count, years and body tags, the listing data alone can't separate them. The photos are the place to look, and we won't guess. Open both galleries side by side and compare each cover. If they look alike or you're not sure which matches your Kicks, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and ask about PP18560 by number. Buy one set or the other, not both.
Why stainless
The polished surface is the 304 steel itself, not a coating, so there's no plating layer to peel away. That suits a part that sits beside the side glass and gets rain, sun and regular washing.
Checking your year
Make sure your Kicks is a 2018 to 2020 model. Later Kicks aren't on this row, so check your records if you're unsure.
Fitting it
Before you start, read the Installation tab for the tape's working temperature and cure time. Choose a dry day and work out of direct sun.
Open the box and make sure all four covers are there and unbent, checking them against the product pictures.
Clean each pillar with car soap and water, rinse and let it dry. Then wipe it with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth so no wax or road film is left. Tape won't bond to a waxed or coated face, so strip any sealant from those spots first.
Hold each cover in place with its liner still on. Once it lines up with the pillar edges, mark its position with a few short strips of painter's tape. Peel the liner, set the cover on the marks and press firmly along its whole length and edges. Do the next cover so the lines match.
When all four are on, stand back and check them. Don't wash the Kicks until the cure time on the Installation tab has passed. After that, plain car soap and a soft towel are all the care the covers need. Quote PP18560 and we'll find the row quickly and go through the photos with you.

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.
