Product Description
Six-Cover Stainless Pillar Post Trim for the 2012-2017 Buick Verano (PP52541)
The set. Six polished stainless pillar post covers for the Buick Verano sedan, $73.49. They're 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. PP52541 has one fitment row, Buick Verano 2012-2017, tagged 4-door, Sedan.
Where it sits. The Verano has three linked pillar sets: PP52540 with four covers, this one with six, and PP52542 with eight. Only the eight-cover set carries a note, and it concerns the front pillar: "Includes front front Pillar, behind the mirror, two pieces cover that front pillar section at the mirror, but is counted as one in the kit's piece count." This six-cover set has no such note, and the record doesn't name its posts or list widths. If the front pillar by the mirror is a section you want covered, compare this gallery closely with PP52542's before ordering, and call us if it isn't clear.
Other Verano trim. Also linked, each on its own listing: GC52540 (gas door cover), LP52540 (license plate bezel), RD52540 (rear deck accent) and TH52541 (two-piece rocker panel trim, "Installs below the door"). None ships with this set.
Year. The row runs from 2012 through 2017, and a Verano from any other year isn't listed. PP52541 shares that 2012-2017 Verano window.
Help. Quality Automotive Trims picks up on 877-752-3811. Quote PP52541 and your Verano's model year, and if the front pillar question is on your mind, say so; we'll look at both galleries alongside you and talk it through before anything is ordered.
Cosmetic. The six dress the posts. Doors, side glass and seals keep working as before. The 304 alloy resists corrosion by its own makeup rather than any coating.
Mounting. All six mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the paint or trim already on the post. No drilling, nothing unclipped from the Verano. The Installation tab gives temperatures and the cure period.
Prep. On a Verano, the tape meets whatever finish sits on each of the six posts, so that finish needs to be sound and spotless. Wash the posts with car-soap water, rinse and dry them. Lift any wax, sealant or polish. Where the paint has turned powdery or begun to crack or peel, put it right before going further. Then wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth until the cloth stays clean, and run a fingertip along for dents. Keep painter's tape and a pencil nearby.
Fitting. First, on a still, dry day in shade, check the six against the gallery and report any damage at once. Second, give each cover a post and mark a number there on tape. Third, liner on, offer one up, ease it until the margin is even and trace round it. Fourth, peel, set it in the tracing and press hard end to end and along both edges. Look it over before the next.
If one won't settle, leave its liner on and call 877-752-3811. After the tape cures, car soap, water and a soft towel are all they need.

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.
