Product Description
Jeep Compass 2011-2016 Eight-Cover Pillar Post Trim in Polished Stainless (PP51077)
PP51077 is the largest Compass pillar set in the record, with eight covers for $100.99. They're polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and the one fitment row is Jeep Compass 2011-2016, tagged 4-door, SUV.
The smaller sets on that row are PP51075 with four covers and PP51076 with six. Since none of them lists post names or widths, it's the gallery photos that show what each covers. If you're after the fullest coverage the record offers for the Compass, eight is the highest count here, but it's still worth checking the photos against your own Jeep so you know exactly where each cover sits.
The same record links other trim for the Compass, each on its own listing: a license plate bezel (LP51075), a rear deck accent for the rear deck (RD51075), a rocker panel insert kit noted "Side Molding" (TH51075) and a window sill set (WS51075). None comes with this pillar set, and their details live on their own pages rather than here.
Check the year; the row runs 2011 to 2016 and nothing outside that. Then, if you'd like to talk it through, phone Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP51077 and the year to hand.
It's a cosmetic change. The eight dress the posts and leave the doors, the side glass and the seals working normally. The corrosion resistance comes from the 304 stainless itself, not a plated surface.
All eight mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, laid directly over the post's existing surface. You won't drill, and nothing comes off the Compass. Look at the Installation tab for the temperature range and how long the tape should cure.
Eight posts take a while to prepare, so start early in the day and don't try to squeeze the prep and the fitting into one short window. Gather painter's tape, a pencil, rubbing alcohol, soapy water and a good stack of lint-free cloths. Lift every trace of wax and polish. Where the paint is chalking, crazing or peeling, repair it first. Wash, rinse and dry each post, then wipe it with rubbing alcohol until a fresh fold of cloth stays clean, and feel along for any dents.
First, on a dry, calm day in the shade, unpack the eight and compare them with the photos, telling us at once about any damage. Second, pair each cover with its post and pencil a number on a strip of painter's tape there. Third, liner on, hold one cover in position, adjust until its margin is even and trace round it in tape. Fourth, peel the liner, set the cover in the tracing and press firmly from end to end and down both edges. Step back and check it before the next.
Any cover that rocks or won't sit down keeps its liner until you've called us on 877-752-3811. When the tape has cured, car soap, water and a soft towel are all the care the set asks for.

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.
