Product Description
Ford Escape 2020-2026 Stainless Pillar Post Trim, 4 Pieces (PP60360)
PP60360 dresses the window pillars of the 4-door Ford Escape with four pieces of polished stainless steel. QAA lists it for Escape model years 2020 through 2026, and it is the smaller of the two pillar kits the company catalogs for this compact SUV.
Why owners choose pillar covers
The pillars are the vertical posts between and beside the side windows. Uncovered, they show whatever finish the Escape came with. A set of mirror-bright covers changes that. They outline the windows and give the side of the Escape a cleaner, more finished look, all without altering anything underneath.
The four-piece option
QAA offers this Escape pillar trim in two sizes: four pieces here, or six in PP60361. The catalog does not break down which pillar each individual piece covers, or exactly where the two additional pieces in the larger kit go. The product photos are the clearest way to see the difference. If you want a restrained accent and the shortest install time, the four-piece kit is the natural starting point.
What the covers are made of
Each piece is cut from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror shine. QAA makes them in the USA. Because the shine comes from the metal itself rather than a coating, there is no plated layer that can flake off over time.
Putting it on
Every cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and mounts directly over the existing surface. You do not take the doors apart. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
Start by washing the pillars, drying them completely, and wiping away any wax. Hold each piece in position to check its alignment before you remove the liner. Once it lines up, peel the backing and press firmly along the whole length of the piece. Step-by-step directions are on the Installation tab.
A good day for the job
Tape bonds best on a panel that is neither hot nor cold. Work in a garage or in the shade on a mild day, and give the adhesive a few days to set before the first wash.
Other Escape accents from QAA
The catalog lists several more pieces for the same Escape: a gas door cover, a license bar that sits above the plate, a four-piece body molding insert kit (QAA advises using adhesive promoter with it), an eight-piece lower rocker panel kit that spans from the bottom of the door up, and a tailgate handle accent. Pairing pillar trim with the rocker kit brings brightness both high and low on the side of the SUV.
Fitment
QAA lists this kit for the 2020-2026 Ford Escape 4-door SUV. The Fitment tab shows the application exactly as QAA records it.

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.
