Product Description
Six Stainless Pillar Post Covers for the 2013-2020 Lincoln MKZ (PP53631)
For $84.49, PP53631 puts six polished pillar post covers on a Lincoln MKZ. They're 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. The listing has one fitment row, Lincoln MKZ 2013-2020, tagged 4-door, Sedan.
A single note appears on the record, and it reads "Includes keyless entry touch pad". That's the full wording; the record says nothing further about it, so look at the photos to see the covers, and phone us if anything in them is unclear.
This is the middle count of three MKZ pillar sets. PP53630 has four covers and PP53632 has eight, and all three show that same keyless line. Since none of the records lists which posts a set reaches, the honest way to choose is to open the three galleries together and compare what each shows with the posts on your MKZ.
Two other stainless pieces for this Lincoln are linked: RD53630, an accent for the rear deck, and TH53630, trim for the rocker panels. Each is sold on its own page, so if you're planning a matching look along the side and back of the MKZ, their galleries are worth a look at the same time as this one.
The row runs 2013 through 2020. Before ordering, check the MKZ's year against 2013-2020. Call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP53631 and that year if you'd like a second opinion on the count or the photos.
Six covers change how the posts look and nothing else. Doors, windows and seals on the MKZ carry on as normal. The alloy is what keeps corrosion away; there's no plating to wear through.
Mounting is with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, pressed onto the posts' existing paint or trim. You won't need a drill, and nothing on the Lincoln is taken off. Temperatures and cure time are on the Installation tab.
Six posts mean six careful cleans. Wash each with car-soap water, rinse and dry it fully. Take off any wax or polish, and fix any paint that's crazed, powdery or flaking first, because the tape can only grip a sound coat. Wipe with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth, turning the cloth until it stays clean. Feel each post for dents. Keep a pencil, low-tack painter's tape and a towel within reach.
First, pick a dry, calm day in the shade and check the six against the gallery, reporting any damage at once. Second, dry-fit each one with the liner still on and mask round it once it sits centred, numbering every mask. Third, fit them in turn: liner off, into its mask, firm pressure end to end and along both edges. Fourth, lift the masking and stand back to look at every margin.
Should one of the six refuse to settle on your MKZ, leave the liner in place and ring 877-752-3811 rather than pushing it home. Once the tape has cured, the stainless takes a normal car-soap wash and a soft towel to dry.

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.
