Product Description
Nissan Maxima 2004-2008 Chrome Mirror Cover Set (MC24540)
For the Nissan Maxima 4-door sedan from 2004 through 2008, MC24540 is a two-piece chrome Mirror Cover Set. Five model years sit on one fitment row with no exclusions. The record has no notes, so it doesn't tell us whether there's a turn signal opening, how much of the mirror the covers wrap, or their dimensions. The product photos answer what the catalog leaves out.
Q: How do I know these will look right on my car? Compare the photos with your Maxima's mirrors. Look at the outline of each cover, where its edges fall, and whether there's anything on your housings, such as a signal lamp, that a cover could hide. If you can't tell, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with the SKU before ordering.
Q: What are they made of? Molded ABS plastic finished with polished chrome plating, imported. Plating is bright but thin, so it's cleaned with mild soap, water and a soft cloth; scouring pads, polishing compounds and strong chemicals are best avoided.
Q: How do they attach? 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. Nothing else about how the covers seat is described on the record.
Q: Is there anything special about an older Maxima? The finish on mirror housings of this age is worth inspecting. Tape can only hold to paint that's holding to the car, so chips, fading or peeling clear coat should be dealt with before anything is applied.
Q: How does the install go? Soap and water first, then a full dry, then rubbing alcohol to strip wax. Before it goes on, offer each cover up to its mirror and match it to the photos; look from ahead of the car and from the side. A couple of small painter's tape marks record the spot. Set the cover on the marks and press firmly around its edges. Repeat with the second cover and compare the pair. The Installation tab spells out the steps and the temperature range the tape works in. Choose a dry, mild day and keep the car out of the wash for a while afterward.
Q: What else is listed for this Maxima? Thirteen parts. Described on this sheet: GC24540, a one-piece Gas Door Cover Trim; LP24540, a one-piece License Plate Bezel, and LPS24540, a two-piece License Plate Surround Trim, whose difference the catalog doesn't explain; PP24540 and PP24541, Pillar Post Trim kits with four and six pieces; RD24540, a one-piece Rear Deck Accent at 2.1"; and SGR24540, a two-piece "MAXIMA" Logo Decal sold as a set of two. SGR24541, TH24540, WP24540, WP24545, WQ24540 and WS24540 are linked by number only. Each listing gives its own material and mounting, which is worth comparing if you want a consistent look across the car.
Q: Anything to confirm before ordering? First, the Maxima's year: 2004 to 2008. Mention MC24540 when you call 877-752-3811.

Installation tips: Mirror Cover Set
- Unpack all 2 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.
