Product Description
Kia Sportage 2011-2016 Grille Accent, Mesh Design, 3-Piece (SGB11835)
SGB11835 is a different kind of QAA grille part. Instead of the made-in-USA stick-on stainless accents in most of this category, it's a three-piece grille accent with a mesh design, listed as imported, for the Kia Sportage SUV, 2011 through 2016.
A mesh grille accent, not a strip
QAA names the part a Grille Accent, and the box line describes a "Billet Grille Overlay" with the note "Mesh design." An overlay lies over the existing grille area. The product photos show the mesh pattern and how the three pieces are arranged; the data itself gives no dimensions or layout.
Material and origin
The listing describes it as high-quality stainless steel, polished to a mirror shine, and imported. The record doesn't state a gauge or grade, so none is given here. If origin matters to your purchase, note that this part differs from QAA's made-in-USA accents.
How it mounts
Here the record is silent. It calls installation easy and says the pieces are cut to perfection, but it doesn't say whether the overlay uses tape, clips or hardware, or whether anything is included for mounting. Please call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 before ordering so we can tell you exactly what to expect and what you'll need.
Sportage years
2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016, 4-door SUV. No trims are excluded in the record.
Other Sportage parts linked to it
- PP11835, PP11836, PP11837: pillar post kits with four, six and eight pieces.

Those are separate listings; check each one for its finish, origin and mounting method rather than assuming they match this overlay.
Mesh against the factory grille
A mesh overlay changes the look of the grille face more than a thin accent does. Hold the photos up next to your Sportage and decide whether you like the effect before ordering.
Preparing the grille
Whatever the mounting method turns out to be, a clean grille helps. Wash, brush out the openings, rinse, and dry fully before fitting.
Dry-fit first
Before committing to any mounting step, hold all three pieces in place to check alignment and spacing. Compare with the photos from the front of the SUV.
Questions worth asking when you call
How does the overlay attach to a Sportage of these years? Is anything included for mounting, or will you need to supply it? Does the mesh cover the whole grille face or only part of it? We'll answer from the product record itself.
Care
Mild soap and a soft cloth keep polished stainless bright; a light metal polish lifts haze. Avoid stiff brushes on the mirror finish.
Nothing on the Sportage is permanently changed by choosing an overlay; it sits on the existing grille area.
