Product Description
PP16215: Six Polished Pillar Covers for the 2016-2020 Civic Hatchback
Six covers, one car, one body style. PP16215 is the middle choice in QAA's pillar post line for the 2016-2020 Honda Civic, and its single fitment row is tagged 4-door and Hatchback. Below is what the listing tells you, what it doesn't, and how to decide between this and the four- and eight-piece sets.
What the listing tells you
Pieces: six. Metal: 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished. Origin: made in the USA. Mounting: 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface, so no holes are drilled. Fitment: Honda Civic 2016-2020, 4-door Hatchback.
What it doesn't
No notes, no width and no names for the pillars. The same is true for PP16214 (4 pieces) and PP16216 (8 pieces). So, rather than describe coverage we can't confirm, we'll say it plainly: the galleries show it. Put the three sets' photos next to each other and look for outlines one has that the others don't. Then pick one set; compare the galleries first.
Is my Civic a hatchback?
The title just says Civic, but the row is hatchback only, and no other body is listed. If you're not sure what you have, your records list the body style. For a Civic that isn't a 4-door hatchback, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 before buying anything here.
Coordinating pieces
For the same car the sheet shows a four-piece lower rocker kit (TH16214) that tapers from a point to 2.125" and spans from the bottom of the door upward, a six-piece window sill set (WS16214) covering the face of the sills only, and single-piece parts: a license plate bezel (LP16214), a rear bumper trim accent (RB16214) and a rear deck accent (RD16214). That last one is a rear deck accent for this hatchback body style, so view its photos or ask before ordering it.
When it arrives
Count six covers and compare each with the listing photos so you know which outline is which. Keep them flat on a clean surface, backings on, until you start. If anything is bent or missing, call before you begin rather than partway through, and keep the pieces together in the meantime.
Clean before you stick
Soap, water, a full dry. Then a rubbing alcohol wipe on every pillar area with a lint-free rag, left a minute to evaporate. Polish or a ceramic layer under the tape cuts the bond, so remove it where the covers go.
Fitting six
Keep the backings on while you work out where each cover lives. Offer it up, sight along both edges, and tag its place with painter's tape; pencil the location on the backing too. When all six are mapped, peel and press one cover, rub it firmly from end to end, and move on to the next. Temperature and cure guidance are on the Installation tab.
Stuck on a piece? Leave the backing on and ring 877-752-3811 with PP16215 handy. Give PP16215 and we'll find the row quickly.

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.
