Product Description
Cadillac SRX 2010-2016 Polished Stainless Gas Door Trim (GC50260)
GC50260 is listed for the Cadillac SRX 4-door SUV from 2010 through 2016, seven model years on a single Fitment row. It's a one-piece overlay of 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, polished, made in the USA, mounting with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
Nothing in the SRX's fuel system is swapped out, since this trim is not a replacement for the cap or any other part. The 2010-2016 SRX must keep its existing fuel door, since the trim covers it and can't stand in for a broken or missing one.
Pillar sets: one with a front triangle
Three pillar post sets are cross-listed: PP50260 with four pieces, PP50261 with six, and PP50262 with eight. Only the eight-piece set has a note, "Includes Front Triangle piece." QAA doesn't explain the six-piece set's additional pair, so compare the photos on all three or call.
Measurements worth reading twice
RD50260, a one-piece rear accent, is described as 1.125" wide by 51.5" long. TH50260, an eight-piece lower rocker kit that spans from the bottom of the door up to the specified width, has a width note that reads "3.5" - 3 0.75" tapered Width" while its width field says 0.75. That note looks garbled, so we've flagged it; call for the actual dimensions before ordering the rocker kit.
And the rest
LP50260 is a one-piece license plate bezel, and MI50260 an eight-piece body molding insert kit, 1 inch wide. WQ50260 and MC50260 are cross-listed by number only.
Year check
This listing begins with the 2010 model year and ends with 2016. An SRX built outside that span isn't covered here, so check the year, and call if it falls outside.
Bonding to paint
The gas door trim 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. That bond relies on the paint underneath, so inspect the door in good light. Faded, hazy or flaking clear coat, chips at the edge, and blisters all need fixing first. Confirm also that the door closes evenly with the body.
Fitting it
Get the door clean with soap and water, then rinse and dry it. A degreaser wipe comes next, repeated until the cloth is clean. Hold the trim against the closed door with the liner on and nudge it until the frame of paint around it is even on every side. Put painter's tape on the body to record the spot. Peel the liner, line up, and set the trim down; then press it firmly everywhere, and press again after a minute. Open the door slowly to confirm it clears. The Installation tab has the full process.
Finish
Polished 304 stainless gives a bright, mirror-like look, and the 26 gauge sheet keeps the overlay thin.
After installing
Install on a mild, dry day and keep it dry overnight. Clean with gentle soap and a soft cloth, and wipe fuel drips away promptly.

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.
