Product Description
Mazda3 Hatchback Six-Piece Stainless Pillar Trim, 2004-2009: PP27752
PP27752 is six polished pillar covers for the Mazda Mazda3 hatchback from 2004-2009. The record tags it 4-door, Hatchback only. It costs $67.99 and is made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless steel.
Sedan owners should look elsewhere. This listing isn't tagged for the sedan; PP27750 (four covers) and PP27751 (six covers) are the two Mazda3 pillar listings that carry the sedan tag, alongside the hatchback.
Hatchback owners have a real decision to make, because PP27751 has the same number of covers and is also tagged for the hatchback. The catalog doesn't explain what separates the two six-piece listings, and neither names its pillars or states widths. The galleries are the only evidence. Open both, put them next to each other, and compare the shapes with the posts on your hatchback. If you still can't see a difference, or can't decide which matches, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 before ordering and quote PP27752. Buy one pillar listing, not several.
The hatchback also has a window trim package, WP27750, with the note "Includes Upper Trim, Pillar Posts and Window Sills - FULL Package". How its pillar pieces relate to this set isn't stated in either listing. If you're considering the package, compare the photographs or phone before buying both.
Years run 2004-2009, and the title agrees with the record. Six covers, same Mazda3 window of 2004 to 2009. Mazda3 prep is covered under Installation.
These covers only change the look. Each slim panel lies over a post between the side windows, and the doors, glass and seals keep working as they did. Grade 304 stainless resists corrosion without relying on plating, so washing is all the care needed.
Mounting uses 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface, with no drilling and no trim removed. Read the Installation tab for the temperature range and cure time.
Prepare all six posts before peeling anything. Look closely at each in daylight. Wax, chalky fading, small cracks and lifting corners all undermine the bond, so correct them. Wash with car soap, dry fully, and wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on a clean, lint-free cloth.
When the parcel arrives, compare the six covers with the gallery and phone if one is bent or missing. Lay the six out as the photos show, mark each position with painter's tape with the backing on, and check that the covers look even on the hatchback. Then fit two at a time, pressing firmly along each cover's full length and both edges.
If any cover won't lie flush, keep its backing on and call 877-752-3811. Pick a dry, mild day in shade, and keep the car out of rain until the cure time has passed.
Before ordering, write down both six-piece numbers, PP27751 and PP27752, and have them ready if you call. Then stand by the hatchback with each gallery in turn and see which set's shapes match your posts. That comparison is the clearest way to choose between them.

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.
