Product Description
Nissan Maxima 2016-2023 Stainless Window Trim Package WP16540, Upper Trim & Pillar Posts, 10 Pieces
WP16540 is a ten-piece polished stainless steel Window Trim Package for the 2016-2023 Nissan Maxima 4-door sedan. The note is short: "Includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts".
What the note leaves out
This listing doesn't say "NO Window Sills". It also doesn't mention sills at all, and no sill set is linked for the Maxima. Read it as upper trim and pillar posts only; if you need sills, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Ten pieces, two groups
The record doesn't give the split between upper trim and pillar posts. Use the photos to separate them before you plan the layout.
The upper-only version
WP16541 is the four-piece package with upper trim only. Buying this one instead brings the pillars in the same order.
Pillar sets on their own
PP16540 (4 pieces) and PP16541 (6 pieces) are linked separately. Since this package already includes pillar posts, you don't need one of those with it.
Other Maxima trim
The group also lists a two-piece rear window trim and a gas door cover.
Eight model years
QAA lists the fitment from 2016 through 2023. If any window trim on your Maxima has been changed, compare it with the photos first.
Ten pieces of 304 stainless
The upper trim and pillar posts are high-quality polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. They mount over the existing surface of the Maxima with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Sorting the Maxima set
Separate the upper pieces from the pillar pieces, then find each one's door in the photos. Hold each piece against the sedan's windows next to the photos to confirm where it goes, then pencil that onto the liner. If anything in the box looks like a sill piece, call before going on, since the listing doesn't mention sills.
Preparing the car
Wash and dry the Maxima. Then, one door at a time, clean each frame top and pillar with a wax-and-grease remover, followed by isopropyl alcohol just before its piece goes on.
Fitting
Place the upper trim on a door first, then line up that door's pillar pieces against it. Dry fit each piece with the liner attached, mark both ends with painter's tape and open and close the door to check clearance. Bond by peeling back a short length of liner, setting the end on its mark and pressing along the piece.
After the job
No washing for a day. After that, mild soap and a soft cloth keep the polish clean. If a piece won't follow the Maxima as the photos show, keep its liner on and call 877-752-3811.
The rear window trim
RW16540, the two-piece rear window trim, is a separate product. If you're fitting it too, do it in the same session so the polished lines around the car are all done together.

Installation tips: Window Trim Package
- Unpack all 10 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.
