Product Description
BMW 7 Series 2009-2015 Pillar Post Trim, Six Stainless Covers (PP29918)
The set. Six polished stainless pillar covers for the BMW 7 Series, 2009-2015, tagged 4-door, Sedan. PP29918 sells for $67.99, and the covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA.
Years first. This listing covers 2009-2015 only. The catalog has 7 Series pillar sets for earlier years on their own pages, and none of them is linked here. Check your records before ordering, and make sure the car is the four-door sedan the row describes. If you're unsure whether the shapes suit your car, the gallery and the phone line are the way to check; hold the photos up beside each post before ordering.
Four or six. PP29917 is the linked four-cover set for the same years. The listings don't name pillars or give widths, so lay the galleries side by side and follow the outlines onto your BMW. Order this page if the six shapes are where you want polished steel; order PP29917 if the four are.
Questions. For anything about these six 7 Series covers, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and give PP29918.
What changes. Only the look of the posts between the side windows. Doors, glass and seals are left alone, and the 304 grade resists corrosion without a plated skin.
How they mount. For the six-piece 7 Series set, each cover goes on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. There's no drilling and no trim removal. The Installation tab sets out the temperature range and cure time.
Six posts to prepare. Feel along each for chalky dust and look for crazing, a corner lifting or a waxy sheen. Fix any you find before the day, since the tape holds only to that layer. Wash, rinse, dry fully, and rub each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, changing cloths until one stays white.
Kit. Car soap and a bucket, alcohol, plenty of cloths, painter's tape, a pencil for numbering, a clean towel and a helper to stand back from the 7 Series.
Fitting. Wait for still, dry weather and shade. Match the six covers to the gallery and call about any that are bent or short. Use the gallery to arrange the six 7 Series covers. With backings on, offer each cover to its post, nudge it until the margins match, and frame it with numbered painter's tape; frame all six before peeling. Then go one at a time: peel, set the cover in its frame, and press hard along the length and both edges. Sight along the side after every second cover.
A stubborn cover. If one of the six rocks or sits proud at an end, keep its backing on and phone 877-752-3811 before pressing it down.
Care. After the cure time, wash the six covers with car soap whenever the BMW is washed and dry them with a soft towel.
Before ordering. Take the gallery to the car and find a post for each of the six shapes, running a hand over each post's finish as you go so any repair is planned ahead of delivery. If a shape has no clear home, call first.

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.
