PP28576: Six-Piece Polished Pillar Covers for the 2007-2012 Nissan Sentra
Six stainless covers for the Sentra sedan's pillar posts, made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 steel with a polished finish: PP28576, listed for the 2007-2012 Nissan Sentra, 4-door, Sedan, at $67.99.
Look closely at the part number before you order. The catalog also carries WP28576, which shares these digits but is a window package, not a pillar set. Its note says "Includes Upper Trim only, NO Pillar Posts, NO window sills". The two are easy to mix up in a search result or a cart. PP28576 is this six-piece pillar set; WP28576 is the upper-trim package. The package listing doesn't say whether its pieces were cut to sit alongside these covers, so if you want both, check the photos or ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 first.
Two more listings are relevant. PP28575 is the four-cover pillar set, priced lower. WP28575 is a window package noted "Includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills"; the listings don't compare its pillar pieces with these six, so avoid buying both without checking. None of these listings names the pillars or gives widths, which makes the galleries the deciding evidence.
On fitment, the record and title agree: six model years of one sedan. Check yours in your records, and call, quoting PP28576, if your Sentra is from another year.
What the covers change is appearance only. They lie over the posts between the side windows as bright facings, and nothing about the doors, glass or seals is altered. Because the 304 alloy resists corrosion by itself, there's no coating to wear away.
They attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, laid directly over the existing surface. You won't drill. Temperature range and cure time are on the Installation tab.
Prepare the six posts patiently. Wax, a chalky film, cracks and raised edges each weaken adhesion, so fix them before starting. Wash with car shampoo, dry completely, and finish each post with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth.
Check the covers against the gallery when they arrive; call if any is bent or absent. Set out the six as the photos show. Mark all six spots with painter's tape before removing a liner, then circle the car to compare sides. Fit two at a time, pressing firmly from end to end and along both edges.
If a cover won't lie flat, keep its liner on and phone 877-752-3811. Work on a dry, mild day in shade, ideally with a helper, and keep the Sentra dry until the cure time has passed. From then on, wash the covers along with the rest of the paint.
One last pre-order step: open this gallery on your phone, stand beside the sedan, and give each of the six shapes a post. If one seems to have no home, call before checkout. While you're on the phone, mention whether you were also looking at the four-piece set or either window package, so all the options can be compared in one conversation.

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.
