Product Description
Buick Enclave 2008-2017 Eight-Cover Pillar Post Trim (PP48532)
PP48532 is the largest Enclave pillar listing, eight polished covers in 26 gauge 304 stainless made in the USA, at $100.99. It covers 2008-2017, and its single fitment row reads Buick Enclave 2008-2017, tagged 4-door, SUV.
Ten years of the four-door Enclave are in the record. Eight covers suit an Enclave of 2008 through 2017. If your Buick sits outside 2008 to 2017, or the paperwork doesn't make it clear, get in touch before you buy.
The smaller linked Enclave sets are PP48530 at four covers and PP48531 at six. No record in the group names posts, lists widths or carries notes. Compare all three galleries; the posts that only appear in this set's photos are the reason to choose eight.
The record also links GC48530, a single gas door cover, whose page shows its tags. Read those on their own rather than assuming they mirror the pillar set's row, and call us if anything there is unclear.
Eight covers deserve a methodical start. Set them out on a soft blanket beside the SUV in the order the photos show, decide each one's post and pencil a small number on every liner.
Quality Automotive Trims answers 877-752-3811. Give us PP48532 and the model year, and we'll go through all eight shapes with you, post by post, whether you're still choosing among the three Enclave sets or already have this one in hand.
These are decorative covers for the posts round the Enclave's side glass. They don't affect doors, windows or seals. 304 stainless resists corrosion because of the alloy, so there's nothing plated to lift.
Each cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly onto the post as it is now, paint or trim. There's no drilling and no trim removal. The temperature window and cure period are on the Installation tab.
Eight posts each need a sound top coat. Strip wax, polish and sealant; repair chalking, crazed or flaking paint, as the tape can't hold better than that. Wash with car soap, rinse and dry thoroughly, then wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth until a fresh fold shows nothing. Feel along for dents.
Line up a full roll of painter's tape, a pencil, rubbing alcohol, car-soap water in a bucket and a big pile of lint-free cloths. A second person stepping back to judge each cover makes eight placements far easier.
Pick shade and a still, dry day. Check the eight against the gallery and tell us about anything damaged or short. Number every post with painter's tape. In order and liners on, hold a cover to its post, move it until the gap at each edge matches and frame it in tape. Peel, lower it into the frame and press firmly along its face and down both edges. Check it against its photo before moving on.
Should one of the eight rock or refuse to settle, leave it unpeeled and ring 877-752-3811 rather than forcing it. When cured, wash them with car soap and water and dry with a soft towel.

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.
