Product Description
Six-Piece Pillar Covers for 1996-1999 Infiniti I30 and 1995-1999 Maxima (PP95541)
PP95541 is the six-piece pillar kit QAA lists for two sedans: the 4-door Infiniti I30 from 1996 through 1999 and the 4-door Nissan Maxima from 1995 through 1999. All six covers are mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA.
Maxima owners, this one is for you too
The product title and the fitment record both list the Nissan Maxima beside the I30. The Maxima years begin one year earlier, in 1995. If you found this kit while searching for an I30 but drive a Maxima, the listing covers you. The Fitment tab shows both entries.
Versus the four-piece kit
PP95540 is the four-piece version with the same fitment. Neither kit has a coverage note, so the catalog does not identify which posts the six pieces here dress or where the two further covers go. Compare the photos.
Specs
- Six covers
- 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish
- Built in the USA
- Mounted with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape on the pillars as they are now
- UPC 691821280520
Tape mounted
The covers go on without removing trim. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
Surface condition
The tape grips paint, so the paint must be clean and firm. Wash the pillars, dry them, and remove old wax with a residue-free wipe. Fix any peeling spot before going further.
Six-piece install
- Work on a dry, mild day in the shade.
- Before any liner comes off, match the six covers to their pillars.
- Dry-fit each one with the liner still on.
- Peel and press each cover firmly, one end to the other.
- Fit the first I30 or Maxima cover, inspect it, then repeat that work on the rest.
- Wait a few days before washing the sedan.
Each step is explained on the Installation tab.
Why six
Six covers give the side glass a fuller bright frame than four. For an owner refreshing an older sedan, the difference is clearly visible from across a parking lot.
Why solid stainless
The polish is the steel itself, with no coating to wear thin, so the six pieces keep a uniform finish.
Care
Mild soap, plenty of water, and a soft towel. Keep abrasive pads away.
Before ordering
Confirm the make, model, and year on your registration. If the kit is a gift, ask the owner.
Handling tips
Rest the six covers on a soft towel so the mirror faces stay unmarked. Keep fingertips away from the adhesive once a liner is off, since skin oil weakens the bond. A helper standing back from the car can tell you whether each piece is square before you press it.
What pillar trim is
A bright cover over each upright post around the door glass. It frames the windows and changes nothing underneath.
Matching the six covers
Fit a few covers first and treat them as your reference. Then look along the car from the front and rear and use that side as the template for the other. Door edges and window corners make reliable reference points.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 6 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.
