Product Description
Honda Accord Sedan 2018-2022 Pillar Post Trim, Four Pieces (PP18281)
PP18281 is a set of four polished stainless pillar covers for the Honda Accord 4-door sedan, model years 2018 through 2022. A six-piece version, PP18282, shares the row, and those two sets are all this sheet lists for this Accord.
Start by matching the row. It reads Honda Accord, 2018-2022, tagged 4-door and Sedan: five model years and one body style. Earlier or later Accords aren't on this listing, and neither are other bodies. Accords of 2018 to 2022 are the cars this four-piece set is listed for. If there's any mismatch, ring Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and give them PP18281 before ordering.
Next, four or six. The two listings say how many covers each holds and nothing else about coverage: no notes, no widths, no pillar names. The galleries are where the difference shows, so open both and find any outline present in one and absent from the other. If these four give you the accent you want, it's the quicker job at $67.99. Otherwise the six-piece set may suit you better. Check PP18282's gallery too before settling on four Accord covers.
The covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished and made in the USA. With no plating on top, the finish is the metal itself and can't flake. They're fitted with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface, so the Accord doesn't get drilled and nothing is removed.
If you've not fitted pillar trim before, the idea is simple. The pillars are the upright panels beside the side glass. Each cover is a thin stainless shape that lies on the face of one, giving it a polished finish without touching the structure underneath. The quality of the result depends mostly on cleaning and careful placement.
Tools are basic: a gentle car soap, a bucket, isopropyl alcohol, a few lint-free cloths, painter's tape and some patience. Nothing has to be taken apart.
The install, in order
Read the Installation tab for the tape's temperature range and cure time, then plan for a dry, mild day in the shade.
Unbox and count four covers, comparing each with its picture. A bent or missing piece is a phone call before you begin.
Wash the pillar areas with a gentle car soap, rinse and dry fully. Follow with an isopropyl alcohol wipe on a lint-free cloth and let it evaporate. Remove wax or ceramic coating from those spots.
Check each Accord cover against the gallery images. Keep the liners on, hold each one to its pillar, and when the edges follow the outline, mark the position with strips of painter's tape. Then peel one, set it on its marks, and press steadily along its length and both edges. Fit the next cover straight away and repeat with the last two.
Look along the car from a few paces away to check the lines. If a cover won't sit flat, keep its liner on and phone 877-752-3811. After the cure, wash it with ordinary car soap.

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.
