Product Description
Altima 2013-2018 Pillar Post Trim, Eight-Piece Stainless Set (PP13552)
PP13552 is the eight-piece pillar set for the 2013-2018 Nissan Altima, the highest count of the three Altima pillar listings. It's polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA, and the only row on it, Nissan Altima 2013-2018, is tagged 4-door and Sedan, same as the title.
Eight covers, no notes. This listing doesn't carry a note naming a triangle or mirror piece, so it doesn't promise any special shape. The photos are the real reference: they show the outline of every cover in the box.
Comparing with PP13550 and PP13551. The four-piece PP13550 and six-piece PP13551 sit on the same sheet with the same row. None of the three listings says which pillars its covers go on. Look at all three sets of photos side by side and note which shapes appear only in the larger sets. If the eight-piece set shows everything you want, it's the one to buy. Compare photos before pairing it with a smaller set.
Attaching it. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. No drilling and no removal. Quote PP13552 when phoning 877-752-3811 about your Altima.
Getting the pillars ready. Use a mild shampoo and plenty of water, rinse, and towel dry. Then wipe each pillar with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it dry. Remove wax, sealant or ceramic coating wherever tape will sit.
An eight-piece layout. Lay all covers face up on a soft towel in the order the photos show. Starting at the front post, offer each of the eight Altima covers up with its backing on, find where it sits flat and even, and mark both ends with painter's tape. Write its spot on the backing. Map every cover against the photos, checking similar shapes against each other. Only then peel and press, one cover at a time, firmly from end to end and along both edges. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Conditions. Dry weather and shade. A helper a few paces away is useful for judging level before a backing comes off, and a step stool makes the upper ends easier.
Other Altima parts on the sheet. MC13550, a two-piece mirror cover set. GC13550, a one-piece gas door cover trim. RD13550, a one-piece rear deck accent, 1.375 wide, on its own listing. TH13550, a four-piece lower rocker kit for the doors only, spanning from the bottom of the door up to 1.5. Check each listing for its finish.
The stainless. Polished 304 has no plated skin, so it won't peel, and since the metal is the same all the way through, a light scuff won't show a different color underneath. At 26 gauge each cover stays slim against the pillar. It cleans up with gentle soap and a soft cloth.
Confirm and call. Altima, 2013-2018, 4-door Sedan. If that's your car, you're on the row. If not, or if a piece looks off when it arrives, call 877-752-3811 with PP13552.

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.
