Product Description
Jaguar XF 2009-2015 Polished Stainless Fuel Door Trim (GC29098)
GC29098 is listed for the Jaguar XF 4-door sedan from 2009 through 2015. It's a single polished overlay for the fuel door, made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
Your gas door stays
GC29098 is not a replacement cap and not a replacement part. The XF's existing gas door is required, since the trim mounts on that door's outer face.
Fitment
Jaguar XF, 2009-2015, 4-door sedan. Seven model years, one row. See the Fitment tab.
Matching XF trim
Five other XF parts are cross-listed:
- PP29098: four-piece pillar post trim.
- PP29099: six-piece pillar post trim.
- TH29098: two-piece rocker trim, 1.25 inches, installing below the door, on the rocker.
- TH29099: six-piece rocker panel insert kit, side molding, with its width listed as 1.5-0.75 inches.
- WQ29098: four-piece wheel well accent trim.
The TH29099 width is written high-to-low. The catalog doesn't explain that, so we've flagged it; check its photos or call. The difference between the two pillar sets also isn't described beyond the piece count.
Mounting
On the 2009-2015 XF, the trim fits over the existing gas door with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Jaguar's surface.
Treat the paint with care
The adhesive bonds directly to the paint on the fuel door. Before installing, inspect it in good light. If there are chips, swirl-worn edges, or any lifting clear coat, have that addressed first. A sound surface is what the tape needs. Make sure the door also latches and sits flush.
Cleaning
Wash with soap and water, rinse, then wipe with degreaser until the cloth comes away clean. Any wax or sealant left behind will weaken the bond. Let it dry completely.
Placement
Keep the liner on and the door shut while you position the trim. Adjust until the visible paint around it forms an even frame. A helper holding the piece while you step back makes this easier. Mark the location on the body with painter's tape.
Pressing
Peel the liner, line up with your mark, and press firmly across the whole surface, center to edges. Press again after a minute. Open the door gently to confirm it clears. The Installation tab has full steps.
Two rocker styles
TH29098 and TH29099 are different kinds of rocker trim. One is a two-piece set that installs below the door on the rocker; the other is a six-piece insert kit for the side molding. They sit in different places and aren't alternatives for the same spot, so decide which area you want to accent first.
Start with the gas door
It's one flat part, done in minutes, and a preview of how polished stainless looks against your XF's paint.
Finish
Polished 304 stainless has a bright, mirror-like surface; 26 gauge keeps the overlay thin.
Conditions and care
Mild, dry day, ideally in a garage, and keep it dry overnight. Wash later with gentle soap and a soft cloth; wipe away fuel splashes.

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.
