Product Description
Honda Fit 2009-2013 Shaped Stainless Gas Door Trim (GC29220)
GC29220 fits the Honda Fit 4-door hatchback, model years 2009 through 2013, and it's formed with a crease contour according to the catalog. Made in the USA, the Fit's trim is one polished 26-gauge piece of 304 stainless steel. The Fit overlay is fixed using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
The shape
Because of the crease contour, this isn't simply a flat plate. The catalog doesn't describe the crease in detail, so the product photos are the best reference. When you test-fit it, line up the crease with the door's shape before you worry about the border.
Gas door warning
For the 2009-2013 Fit hatchback: GC29220 is not a replacement cap or part, so the Honda's own gas door must be in place.
Fitment
Honda Fit, 2009-2013, 4-door hatchback. One row on the Fitment tab.
A 22-piece full package
The Fit's window trim choices run from small to complete:
- WP29222: 22 pieces, the FULL package with upper trim, pillar posts and window sills.
- WP29221: four pieces, upper trim only, no pillar posts and no sills.
- PP29220 and PP29221: pillar posts in four and six pieces.
- PP29222: eight pieces, including the front triangle piece, front of mirror.
WP29220 and WS29220 also appear; their pages describe them.
Other Fit listings
MI29220 is a four-piece body molding insert kit at 0.75 inches. LP29220 is a license plate bezel at 8.5 inches. RB29220, RD29220, TH29220, TH29221, TP29220, WQ29220 and WQ29221 are on the sheet too.
Mounting
The crease-contour trim fits over the Fit's existing fuel door, no drilling required. Per QAA, the tape holds for a lifetime and won't damage the vehicle's surface.
Paint check
Inspect the fuel door's paint. The adhesive grips it directly, so any chips, fading or lifting clear coat should be repaired first. The door should latch and sit flush.
Install
Wash, rinse, degrease, and dry the door face. With the door closed and the liner on, set the crease to match the door and then center the piece so the paint border is even. Mark it on the body with painter's tape. Peel, place, and press firmly on both sides of the crease and along every edge. Press again after a minute. Ease the door open to confirm it clears. The Installation tab covers the rest.
Helper tip
With a shaped part, a second person really helps: one holds, one stands back and judges the alignment.
Front triangle note
PP29222 is the only Fit pillar set whose note mentions the front triangle piece in front of the mirror. If you want that area covered, start your comparison there.
Finish
Polished 304 stainless, bright and reflective; 26 gauge thin sheet.
Weather and care
Install on a mild, dry day and keep it dry overnight; afterward, gentle soap, a soft cloth and a wipe of any fuel drips.
First piece
If the 22-piece package is the eventual goal, this is a quick warm-up: one part, minutes to install, and a preview of the finish against your Fit's paint.

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.
