PP22215: Six-Piece Pillar Trim for the 2001-2005 Honda Civic Sedan
PP22215 is the six-piece polished stainless pillar post set for the 2001-2005 Honda Civic 4-door sedan, listed at $67.99 and made in the USA. Two other Civic sets appear on the sheet. PP22214 is the four-piece sedan set, the direct alternative to this one. PP25212 is a two-piece set tagged 2-door Coupe; it's listed for the coupe body, not the sedan.
For a sedan, then, it's six covers or four. Neither sedan listing says which pillars its covers dress, and neither carries a note or a width. The count is all that's stated. The photos show the rest: compare this gallery with the four-piece gallery, note the shapes that appear only here, and match all six to panels on your Civic. If each has a home, this is your set. If not, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and ask about PP22215 before you order. Buying both Civic sets? Talk to us at 877-752-3811 before you do.
Fitment is a single row: Honda Civic, 2001-2005, 4-door, Sedan. Five model years. The six-piece set suits Civics of 2001 through 2005. If your Civic is a different year or body, this set isn't listed for it, so call before ordering.
The covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished face. The finish is the steel itself, so there's no plating to chip or peel. They fix with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface. No drilling, no trim removal.
Because the tape bonds to the pillar's current finish, check that finish closely. On a car from these years, sun can leave it powdery, crazed or lifting. Repair any such areas first. If it's smooth and firm, a thorough clean is all it needs.
Read the Installation tab for the tape's temperature range and cure time, and plan the job for a dry, calm day in the shade. Have mild car soap, a sponge, isopropyl alcohol, plenty of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil ready. With six covers, a helper is handy.
Start by laying out the six covers and comparing each with the photos. Anything bent or missing means a call before you begin.
Clean next. Wash, rinse and dry the pillar faces, then wipe each with isopropyl alcohol, switching to fresh cloths until one stays clean. Let it evaporate.
Then mark. Hold each cover in place with its liner on, settle the edges and frame it with painter's tape. Pencil the position on its liner, and frame all six before peeling any.
Finally, fit. Two at a time, peel a liner, set the cover in its frame and press with firm, even strokes from end to end and along both edges. Fit the next cover straight after, and have your helper check the lines from a few paces back.
Should one of the Civic's six covers not sit flat, keep its liner on and call 877-752-3811. Once cured, ordinary car soap and a soft towel keep the Honda's covers clean.

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.
