Product Description
Six Polished Stainless Pillar Covers for the Genesis GV80, 2021-2026 (PP71381)
The middle option for the Genesis GV80. PP71381 is a six-piece kit of mirror-polished stainless steel pillar covers, listed for the 4-door GV80 crossover SUV in model years 2021 through 2026.
Six between four and eight
QAA's GV80 range is PP71380 (four pieces), this kit (six), and PP71382 (eight). Same fitment for all three. The catalog does not identify which posts each kit includes, so the best comparison is the photos on each listing. Six covers is the balanced choice: clearly visible, but not the fullest set.
Confirming your vehicle
QAA lists one vehicle: the Genesis GV80, 4-door crossover SUV, 2021 through 2026. The Fitment tab shows the entry. If you are not sure of the model year, check the registration.
Construction
All six covers are made in the USA from 304 stainless steel at 26 gauge and polished to a mirror finish. There is no chrome layer, so the brightness is the metal itself and does not wear through.
How it attaches
The six GV80 covers are kept in place by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the current surface, and you will not remove anything. QAA states the tape holds for a lifetime and won't harm the Genesis.
Installation, step by step
- Choose mild, dry weather and keep the GV80 shaded.
- Clean each GV80 pillar, dry it, then take off the wax.
- Match the six GV80 covers to the photos.
- Dry-fit each cover and compare it with the photos.
- Strip the liner and press the cover hard along its length.
- The GV80 should go a few days before its first wash.
The Installation tab covers each step in more detail.
A pattern piece for the GV80
Fit the first GV80 cover and use it as a pattern for the rest. Stepping back between pieces helps you catch small misalignments before the tape is pressed.
What the trim does
Pillars are the vertical posts around the side windows. Polished covers give them a reflective outline that contrasts with the paint. The trim is cosmetic and leaves the original posts intact.
Cleaning
Mild soap, a thorough rinse, and a soft towel. Keep scouring pads and abrasive compounds away from the polished faces.
Before you order
Look at the year on your registration and confirm it falls between 2021 and 2026. Then think about how the rest of the GV80 looks. A vehicle with little other bright trim suits six covers well, since they become a clear focal point without overwhelming the side.
Why solid stainless
Plated trim gets its shine from a thin coating over another material. These covers are 304 stainless all the way through, so there is no coating to lose its brightness, and each of the six pieces will always match the rest.
Making the call
If you want more stainless than the four-piece kit but are not sure about eight, six is a comfortable middle. Each kit is a complete set, so it is simplest to decide once. QAA is happy to talk it through by phone.

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.
