Product Description
PP26109: Lexus GS 2006-2011, Six-Piece Stainless Pillar Post Trim
Six polished covers for the window pillars of a 2006-2011 Lexus GS sedan: that's PP26109. It's $84.49, the steel is 26 gauge 304 stainless, and it's made in the USA. The row is tagged 4-door, Sedan.
Its only linked counterpart is PP26108, a four-cover set for the same car and years. You won't find pillar names or widths on either page, so put the two photo galleries next to each other and compare the outlines piece by piece. The six-piece set makes sense if you want polished steel on everything its photos show. If the four-piece pictures match your plan better, that listing costs less. Buy one or the other.
Before you buy, take a look at your records. The listing runs across six model years, from 2006 to 2011, and any GS outside that span isn't covered here. For any question on year, body or count, Quality Automotive Trims takes calls on 877-752-3811. Mention PP26109.
| Point | Detail |
|---|---|
| What it changes | Appearance only; doors, glass and seals stay as they are |
| Steel | 304 stainless, polished, not plated |
| Care | Car soap and water |
| Fixing | 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface |
| Tools | No drill; no trim removal |
| Cure | See the Installation tab for temperature range and cure time |
Everything hinges on the existing finish of the posts, because that's what the tape grabs. Look along each one for chalking, fine crazing, an edge lifting away or a waxy film. Deal with those first. Then wash, rinse, dry, and wipe with rubbing alcohol until a fresh lint-free cloth comes up clean.
Alongside the six covers, have soap, a bucket, alcohol, cloths, painter's tape and a pencil to number the outlines. With six pieces on a GS sedan, a friend checking alignment from the kerb saves you walking back and forth.
Pick a calm, dry day and a shady spot out of the wind. Unpack the covers and match all six to the photos; if one is damaged or missing, call before starting. Set the six GS covers out next to the photos. Rest each against its post with the liner still in place, slide it until the gaps look even, and mark round it with painter's tape. Finish marking all six before removing any liner. Then work one at a time: strip the liner, drop the cover into its marked spot, and press hard along its full length and both edges. Pause every couple of covers to check that they line up. Polished stainless steel is the material for the six GS covers.
If a cover won't lie flush, stop, leave its liner on, and ring 877-752-3811. After the cure, wash with car soap and pat dry with a soft towel. Most of the session goes on cleaning and marking. Before ordering, take the gallery out to the GS on your phone and find a post for each of the six shapes. If any leaves you guessing, call first rather than after the parcel has arrived.

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.
