Product Description
Nissan Sentra 2000-2006 Pillar Post Trim, Six-Piece Set (PP24576)
PP24576 gives the 2000-2006 Nissan Sentra 4-door sedan six polished stainless pillar covers. It costs $67.99, it's made in the USA, and its only linked alternative is the four-piece PP24575.
Choosing between the two means looking at photos, because the catalog gives neither listing any pillar names, widths or notes. Open both galleries and compare them. You're looking for outlines that turn up in this set and not in the four-piece one. Then walk round your Sentra and ask yourself whether you'd like those areas in polished steel too. If yes, buy this set. If you'd rather keep it simple, buy the four. Just not both; the photos show what each one covers.
On fitment, the row is Nissan Sentra, 2000-2006, 4-door, Sedan, which spans seven model years. PP24576 carries a 2000-2006 Sentra row. For anything that doesn't line up, Quality Automotive Trims takes calls on 877-752-3811; mention PP24576.
The covers are cosmetic. They sit over the posts between the side windows and give them a bright face; nothing structural is involved. They're made from 26 gauge 304 stainless and polished, so the shine is the steel itself rather than a plated layer. That means no peeling and good corrosion resistance, and a simple wash keeps them looking right.
There's no rush on any of this. Mounting is by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. No holes are drilled and no trim is removed. The Installation tab lists the tape's temperature range and cure time, and the job should stay within both. Cold or damp conditions are worth avoiding.
On an older car, the finish under the tape matters most. Check each post for a dull, chalky coating, hairline cracks or a lifting edge, and have those repaired first. Strip any old wax as well. Then wash, dry, and wipe each post with rubbing alcohol until a fresh lint-free cloth comes away clean.
Pick a dry, still day and work in the shade. When the covers arrive, check all six against the photos and call if any are bent or missing. Set the six Sentra covers out by the gallery images. Offer each up to its post with the backing still on and mark around it with painter's tape. When all six are marked, fit them one at a time: peel, set into the outline, and press hard along the length and both edges. Every second Sentra cover, stand back and see that the lines agree. Stainless steel makes up all six.
A cover that won't sit flat should keep its backing on while you phone 877-752-3811. After curing, wash with car soap and dry with a soft towel. The listing describes the steel as cut and polished to a mirror shine.
Allow an unhurried session and, if possible, enlist a helper to hold covers. Marking six positions is where most of the time goes. Before you order, hold the gallery up beside the Sentra to make sure every shape has a home.

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.
