Product Description
PP19651: Six-Piece Pillar Trim for the 2018-2026 VW Atlas (Not the Cross Sport)
PP19651 gives the 2018-2026 Volkswagen Atlas 4-door SUV six polished stainless pillar covers, at $89.99. Both the title and the fitment row carry the same restriction: "(*3rd row only-No Fit Cross Sport*)". So this set is listed for the 3rd-row Atlas only and is not for the Atlas Cross Sport.
Check which Atlas you have. The restriction is the most important line on this listing. If your vehicle is an Atlas Cross Sport, this set isn't listed for it. If you're not sure, your records should show the exact model, and Quality Automotive Trims can confirm at 877-752-3811; quote PP19651.
Fitment. Volkswagen Atlas, 2018-2026, 4-door, SUV, with the restriction above. Nine model years on one row.
The Atlas range. Four pillar sets are linked: PP19650 (four covers), this six-piece set, PP19652 (eight) and PP19653 (ten). None of them has a note, a width or named pillars. So the galleries are what separate them. Compare this one with the four-piece and eight-piece photos, note any outline that shows in one and not the other, and match each of the six shapes to your Atlas. If two Atlas sets appeal, check their photos or call before ordering, and we'll help you weigh the coverage.
Before ordering. With the restriction confirmed, do one more check. Open the six-piece photos on your phone, stand beside your Atlas and make sure each shape has an obvious place. If one doesn't, call before buying. It's simpler to sort out now than after the box arrives.
Material. 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished and made in the USA. With no plating over the steel, the finish can't peel.
Mounting. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. No drilling, and nothing comes off the vehicle.
The rules. The Installation tab gives the tape's temperature range and cure time. Follow those first.
Your kit. Mild car soap, a bucket and sponge, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape, a pencil, and a stable step stool if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground.
Parts check. Unpack six covers onto a towel and compare each with the photos. Call before starting if anything's damaged or missing.
Surface prep. On a dry day in the shade, wash and rinse the pillar faces and dry them. Follow with an isopropyl alcohol wipe and let it evaporate. Wax and ceramic coatings stop the tape bonding, so remove them where covers will sit.
Layout. Offer each cover up with its liner on. When the edges sit right, frame it with painter's tape and pencil its spot on the liner.
Fitting. Two at a time, peel a liner, set the cover in its frame and press steadily along its length and both edges. Fit the next cover straight after, then step back to compare.
If it won't sit. Keep the liner on and ring 877-752-3811.
Aftercare. Wait out the cure time, then wash with ordinary car soap and dry with a soft towel.

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.
