Product Description
Six-Cover Pillar Post Trim for the 2008-2011 Ford Focus Sedan (PP48346)
Six polished stainless covers for the Ford Focus sedan's pillar posts make up PP48346. The set is $67.99, in 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA. It's listed for 2008-2011, and the single fitment row reads Ford Focus 2008-2011, tagged 4-door, Sedan.
Fit. A four-door Focus sedan from 2008, 2009, 2010 or 2011. Your records confirm the year and body; if either doesn't match, or you'd like it checked, call us first.
Middle set of three. PP48345 has four covers and PP48347 eight. No listing in the trio names posts, gives widths or includes notes. Lining up the three galleries shows where these six sit and what the four or eight would change on the Focus.
Related Focus trim. Among the linked pieces are AT48345, a six-piece body side molding accent, and MI48345, a four-piece body molding insert kit. Read each one's page for its tags.
Plan the six. At the car with the gallery open, decide which post every cover belongs on before any liner is touched. Set aside anything that doesn't line up.
Phone. Got a shape you can't place on the sedan, or torn between six covers and eight? Quality Automotive Trims takes calls on 877-752-3811. Mention PP48346 and the year of your Focus, and we'll look at the photos with you before you order or peel anything.
Trim only. The six frame the posts round the side glass and leave the doors, windows and weatherstrip working normally. 304 stainless resists corrosion through its composition rather than a plating.
Mounting. The Focus stays undrilled: every cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the paint or trim now on its post, and no panel is removed. The Installation tab sets out temperatures and cure time.
Preparing six posts. Lift wax, polish and sealant from each, and repair powdery, cracked or peeling paint beforehand, since that's the layer the tape grips. Wash with car soap, rinse and allow a full dry. Wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth, switching to fresh cloth until it stays clean, and run a fingertip along for dents.
Kit. Six numbered tabs need a roll of painter's tape and a pencil. Beyond that, set out a bottle of rubbing alcohol, a bucket of soapy water and a stack of lint-free cloths. If a friend can stand by the Focus's rear wheel and watch each edge as you set it, the six lines come out straighter.
Fitting. Shade and a still, dry day. Lay out the six with the gallery and report anything bent or missing. Number each post on painter's tape. One at a time with its liner on, rest a cover on its post, ease it until the margin is even and box it in with tape. Peel, settle it inside the box and press firmly along the face and both edges. Compare it with its photo before carrying on.
If one sits proud. A cover that tips or shows a gap at one end should keep its liner on while you ring 877-752-3811. After the full cure, wash the six with car soap and water and dry them with a soft towel.

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.
