Product Description
PP15296 Six-Piece Polished Stainless Pillar Posts, Acura TLX 2015-2020
Six covers for the pillars of a 2015-2020 Acura TLX sedan, in polished 304 stainless at 26 gauge, made in the USA. PP15296 sits on one fitment row, Acura TLX 2015-2020 tagged 4-door and Sedan, which matches its title.
Why six, and how to know
QAA's other TLX pillar set is PP15295 with four pieces. The catalog stops at the count: no notes on either, no pillar names, no triangle or mirror piece mentioned. So you'll identify this set's two further covers from the photos, not the text. Pull up both galleries and compare outlines. If the six-piece gallery shows covers for posts you care about that the four-piece one doesn't, buy this set. If both seem to cover what you want, the smaller set is less to install. Plan on one TLX set, and call 877-752-3811 before combining the two.
Fit
The row is the TLX 4-door sedan, 2015 through 2020. If your records show something else, ring 877-752-3811 with PP15296 before ordering.
No drill required
The covers ride on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, laid directly over the existing surface. Nothing is removed from the TLX.
The material
Polished 304 stainless carries its finish in the metal, so it can't peel; at 26 gauge the covers sit snug on the pillars.
Clean, then clean again
The first clean is a normal wash: car soap, rinse, towel. The second is a wipe with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free rag, left to evaporate. Between them, they leave bare paint for the tape. If the pillars are waxed or coated, strip that layer where the covers go.
Placing six covers
Group the covers by shape against the photos. With liners attached, try each cover on its post, sliding it until the edges look even, and mark its ends with painter's tape. Note the position on the liner. Map all six, holding similar covers side by side to confirm which spot each one fits. Then peel, set and press, one cover at a time, firmly along its length and both edges. The Installation tab gives temperature limits and cure time. With six covers on the TLX, a slow, careful pass with the photos in hand pays off; each one is polished stainless.
Your setup
Dry weather and shade, a step stool, and someone a few steps back to tell you when a cover looks straight. Lay out the soap, towels, alcohol, rag, painter's tape and a pen before starting.
Common mistakes
Peeling every liner at the start, pressing only the middle of a cover and working on a hot panel all lead to a crooked or lifting cover. Keeping liners on until the mapping is done, pressing along the full length and both edges, and choosing a cool, dry day avoid all three.
Arrival
Check six covers against the gallery. If one won't lie flat, keep the liner on, try it on another pillar, and then call Quality Automotive Trims. Wash it with ordinary car soap afterward.

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.
