Product Description
PP14041: Six-Piece Stainless Pillar Post Covers, Infiniti QX50 2014-2017
Six polished covers in 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, for the 2014-2017 Infiniti QX50. That's PP14041. One fitment row, Infiniti QX50 2014-2017 with 4-door and SUV tags, matches the title, so the fit check is short: confirm the model and the year.
Q: Where does six sit in the QX50 lineup?
Second of four. PP14040 has four pieces, PP14041 six, PP14042 eight and PP14043 ten. Every one of those listings lacks notes, and none says which pillars it covers. So the counts tell you how many pieces arrive, not where they go. Compare all four galleries, look for shapes that appear in one and not another, and buy the one set that covers the pillars you want. Pick one set.
Q: Will I have to drill?
No. The pieces attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface, and nothing comes off the vehicle.
Q: What's good about polished 304?
It's solid stainless with no coating on top, so there's nothing to flake, and a minor scratch won't show a different color beneath. A 26 gauge sheet is slim on the pillar but keeps its shape.
Q: What do I need?
A bucket, mild car shampoo, clean towels, rubbing alcohol, a lint-free cloth, painter's tape and a pencil. A step stool helps for the top ends.
Q: How should I clean the pillars?
Wash, rinse and dry them, then wipe with the alcohol on the lint-free cloth and let it evaporate. Strip any wax or coating where tape will go, because tape sticks to the top layer, not the paint beneath it.
Q: What's the fitting order?
Map before you peel. Lay the six covers on a towel and match them to the photos. Working from the front post back, hold each QX50 cover in place with its backing on, find where it hugs the post, and mark the ends with painter's tape. Write the location on the backing. Map the remaining covers the same way. Then peel and press one cover at a time, firmly from end to end and along each edge, working through them in order. Check from a few steps back. Temperature range and cure time are on the Installation tab.
Q: What if my QX50 isn't in that year range?
The row covers 2014 through 2017 only, and the sheet lists no other QX50 years for this part. Don't assume a neighboring year shares the same pillars. Call us with your year before ordering and we'll tell you what the catalog shows.
Q: Best conditions?
A dry day, a cool panel and shade, with a helper to judge level if you can get one.
Q: Anything to check on delivery?
Count six covers against the photos. If one doesn't line up, keep the backing on, try it on another pillar, and if it still won't sit right, call 877-752-3811 with PP14041 and your model year.
Afterward, mild soap and a soft cloth keep the polish bright.

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.
