Product Description
Lincoln MKS 2009-2012 Sedan Stainless Gas Door Trim (GC49625)
GC49625 is listed for the 2009-2012 Lincoln MKS 4-door sedan, four model years on a single Fitment row. It covers the fuel door with one piece of polished 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, made in the USA, and mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
GC49625 is not a replacement cap or replacement part. The MKS's existing gas door has to be in place, since the trim fits onto that door.
Two wheel well sets, two approaches
The MKS has a pair of eight-piece wheel well accent sets cross-listed, and their notes describe different approaches. WQ49625 is "Cut to fit with Rocker kit sold separately," which suggests it's meant for cars that will also carry rocker trim. WQ49626 is "Full Length." No rocker kit is cross-listed on this sheet, so if you're considering WQ49625, call and ask which rocker kit it's cut to work with.
The rear of the car
Two other parts finish the back. LP49625 is a one-piece license plate bezel. RD49625 is a one-piece rear deck accent, 3.5 inches wide, noted "With Trim Crease," so it has a formed crease rather than being flat. The photos on that listing show its shape.
Order check
Before buying, confirm the car is an MKS sedan from 2009, 2010, 2011 or 2012, and that the gas door is present and undamaged.
Paint condition
Because GC49625 installs directly over the existing surface, there's no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. All the same, adhesive trim can only be as secure as the paint it sits on. Look at the gas door in daylight for fading, peeling or cloudy clear coat, edge chips, and bubbles. Repair them first. And make sure the door closes flush with the body.
Fitting
Clean the door with soap and water. Rinse, dry, and wipe with degreaser until the cloth shows no residue. Then, without peeling the liner, hold the trim on the closed door and adjust it until the outline of paint is equal on all sides; a helper looking from a step or two back makes this easier. Mark the spot with painter's tape. Peel the liner, lower the trim onto the marks, and press firmly across the surface, then press once more after a minute. Open the door slowly to check it moves freely. The Installation tab has the full walkthrough.
Starting point
Among the MKS parts, the gas door piece is the easiest: one flat overlay and a few minutes of work. It's a good way to see the polished stainless against your paint before ordering wheel well sets.
Finish and care
The polished 304 surface is bright, and 26 gauge keeps it thin. Install on a dry, mild day and leave it dry overnight. Clean with a soft cloth and gentle soap, and wipe off fuel drips.

Installation tips: Gas Door Cover Trim
- Confirm your vehicle still has its original gas door. This trim mounts over it and does not replace it.
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
