Fitment
Infiniti Q45, 2002-2006, 4-door, Sedan. Five model years on a single row. If your car is outside that range, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and quote PP22041 before ordering.
What the six covers are
Here we have to be straightforward: the listing doesn't say which pillars the six covers go on. There's no note and no width. The four-piece listing is equally brief. What separates the two sets in the data is the count, nothing more. So compare the galleries yourself. Pick out the shapes in these photos that the four-piece photos don't show, and match all six to panels on your Q45. If everything has a place, you've found your set. If not, call first. Open the four-piece Q45 gallery alongside this one so you can see what the further two covers are.
Before you order
Two minutes with your phone beside the car is worth it. Check your records for the year, then hold up the photos and find each shape's place. If something doesn't line up, call before buying rather than after.
Steel and tape
26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished. The bright finish is the steel's own surface, not a coating, so it won't flake. The covers mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface: no holes and no removal of trim. Read the Installation tab for the tape's temperature range and cure time.
The pillar surface
Tape sticks to whatever finish is on the pillar now. If years of sunlight have left that finish chalky or cracked, or it's lifting anywhere, get it repaired before fitting. A smooth, firm finish only needs cleaning. When in doubt, call for advice.
Six covers, one at a time
Choose a dry, still day in the shade. Have mild car soap, a sponge, isopropyl alcohol, plenty of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil ready.
Unpack onto a towel. Arrange the six covers and compare each with the photos. Damaged or missing pieces are a call before you start.
Clean each pillar: soap, rinse, dry, then isopropyl alcohol. Change to a fresh cloth whenever the old one shows dirt, and stop when one stays clean. Let the alcohol flash off.
Plan the layout before peeling. Hold each cover up with its liner on, nudge it until the edges sit right, and box it in with painter's tape. Pencil the location on the liner.
Fit the six Q45 covers in pairs. Peel a liner, set the cover in its box and press with firm, even strokes along its length and edges. Fit the next one and step back to compare.
If one won't settle, keep its liner on and phone 877-752-3811. Once the cure time has passed, wash with ordinary car soap and dry with a soft towel. The polished steel needs no other attention.

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.
