PP27381: Six-Piece Stainless Pillar Covers for the Volvo XC90
PP27381 is six polished stainless pillar covers for the Volvo XC90, priced at $84.49 and made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless steel.
The years are worth a close look. The title and the fitment record both list the XC90 for 2003-2015 and the Volvo XC Classic for 2014-2016, tagged 4-door, Crossover SUV. The XC Classic years overlap the XC90's last two. If your car sits near either end of those spans, or it's an XC Classic, compare the photos with your own posts and ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 before you order, quoting PP27381.
Four pillar sets share those rows: PP27380 with four covers, this one with six, PP27382 with eight and PP27383 with ten. None of the listings says which pillars its covers fit or how wide they are, which means the photo galleries do the explaining. Put them side by side and see how the shapes differ from one count to the next. If six covers put polished steel where you want it on your Volvo, you're on the right page. If not, one of the others will. You'd fit one XC90 set, not both; ring us first if you're tempted.
What the covers do is change how the posts between the side windows look. That's all. Each thin panel rests on top of a post; the doors open and close normally and the glass and seals are untouched. Grade 304 stainless resists corrosion by itself, so there's no plating to wear through, and washing with car soap keeps it bright.
The XC90's six covers go on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing pillars; nothing is drilled and no Volvo trim is removed. The XC90's temperatures and cure time are on the Installation tab.
Six covers means six posts to prepare properly. The tape bonds to the current finish, so check each post for chalkiness, crazing, a lifting edge or wax, and correct those. Wash, dry completely, and finish each post with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth.
When the parcel arrives, compare the covers with the photos and call if any is bent or missing. The gallery's order is a good one for the six XC90 covers. With every backing still on, outline all six positions in painter's tape, so you can see the whole arrangement before committing. Then fit a pair at a time, pressing firmly along each cover's length and both edges. A step stool is handy if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground, and a helper can tell you when the covers match.
If a cover won't sit flush, leave its backing on and phone 877-752-3811. Choose a dry, mild day in the shade for the work, and allow an unhurried session; cleaning and marking take most of it.
Before ordering, take the gallery out to your XC90 on your phone and give each of the six shapes a post. If one has no obvious home, call first rather than after delivery.

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.
