Product Description
PP27142: Eight-Piece Pillar Trim with Front Triangle, 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser
The note on this listing is the detail to start with: "Includes front triangle." PP27142 is an eight-piece set of polished stainless pillar covers for the 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser, tagged 4-door, SUV, and of the two linked FJ pillar sets, it's the one whose listing mentions a front triangle. The catalog doesn't describe the triangle piece further, so look for it in the photos.
The price is $95.49, and the covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA. The linked four-piece pillar set, PP27140, makes no mention of a front triangle.
There's also WP27140 to consider, an 18-piece Window Trim Package whose note reads "Includes Upper Trim, Pillar Posts and Window Sills - FULL Package." Because that package says it includes pillar posts, compare its gallery with this one before ordering. The listings themselves don't set the package's pieces against these eight, so check the pictures or call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP27142.
The FJ page links more trim too, each as its own listing: a window sill trim set (WS27140), gas door cover trim (GC27140), hood vent trim (HT27140), and front grille accent trim under SG27140 and SG27141. None of those is part of this order.
Apart from the note, neither pillar listing names its pillars or gives widths. Work through the galleries, place each outline on your FJ, and choose the set whose pieces match your plan; that's the single FJ pillar page to order.
Eight model years are covered, 2007-2014. It fits 2007-2014.
All eight pieces are cosmetic, slim polished panels that change only how the posts look; doors, glass and seals are untouched. Grade 304 resists corrosion without plating, and car soap and water keep it bright.
All eight, the front triangle included, bond with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape to whatever finish the FJ Cruiser's posts have now. You won't drill the SUV or pull any of its trim. The temperature range and cure time are on the Installation tab.
The tape bonds to each spot's current finish, so inspect all of them, including wherever the triangle piece will go. Chalky residue, fine cracks, a lifting edge or wax should be fixed first. Wash, rinse, dry, and wipe with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths until one comes away white. A step stool helps if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground.
Gather a bucket, car soap, rubbing alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape, a pencil for labels and a helper. On a calm, dry day in the shade, check the eight pieces against the photos, ringing us about any bend or shortfall, and find the front triangle among them. Sort all eight FJ Cruiser covers using the listing photos. Liner on, hold each to its spot, adjust until the gap is even, frame it with labelled painter's tape, and mark every position before peeling. Then two at a time: peel, settle into the frame, press hard along the length and edges, and fit the next straight after.
If a piece won't sit flush, keep its liner on and ring 877-752-3811. After curing, wash with car soap and pat dry. Allow a longer, unhurried session.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 8 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.
