Product Description
2010-2012 Ford Taurus Sedan Chrome Door Handle Covers, 8 Pieces (DH50490)
For the 2010-2012 Ford Taurus four-door sedan, DH50490 wraps all of the door handles in chrome. The kit has eight pieces, each molded from polished chrome-plated ABS plastic and imported, and each mounting with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
One note to check
The listing says "Does not include passenger key access." The cover for the passenger side has no lock opening. The one thing to confirm is whether your Taurus has a key cylinder on the passenger front handle. If it does, call us before ordering. The catalog says nothing further about the driver side, so compare the photos against your driver handle too.
Fitment
Ford Taurus, 4-door, model years 2010, 2011 and 2012, sedan body. The Fitment tab lists that single row as QAA records it.
How the eight pieces divide
Eight pieces across four doors works out to two per door. The catalog does not say which piece goes where, so match them against the product photos and stack them by door before you clean anything. That minute of sorting saves real confusion once mounting starts.
What chrome ABS brings
ABS is a rigid plastic that molds tightly to a contour. Plated in chrome and polished, it gives each handle a mirror finish and lets the sedan's sides pick up the light at every door. The factory handles stay in place and keep working under the covers.
Step by step
On the 2010-2012 Taurus, QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the sedan's surface. To give it the best surface to grip:
- Wash every handle along with the paint around it.
- Wipe with a degreaser and let it dry fully.
- Hold each cover in place by hand to check its alignment.
- Set the cover and press firmly along every edge for several seconds.
The Installation tab has the fuller prep notes.
Work in a loop
Move around the Taurus in one direction, door by door. Finishing each door before starting the next keeps the pieces in order, and by the last door you will have the technique down.
Quick pre-order checklist
Confirm three things before checkout: your Taurus is a 2010, 2011 or 2012 model, it is the four-door sedan, and its passenger handle either has no key cylinder or you are fine covering it. If all three check out, this kit matches the catalog fitment for your car.
Weather
Pick a mild, dry day and work in the shade. Cold or damp surfaces keep foam tape from bonding fully. If the Taurus was waxed recently, degrease twice. Keep the car dry overnight afterward.
Keeping it bright
Wash the covers with mild soap and dry them with a soft towel. Abrasive pads and harsh compounds can scratch plating, so leave those in the garage.

Installation tips: Door Handle Cover Kit
- 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, 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.
