Product Description
Honda CR-V Stainless Gas Door Trim, Fitment Listed 2017-2022 (GC17235)
GC17235 is a single polished stainless cover for the fuel door of the Honda CR-V 4-door SUV. QAA makes the CR-V overlay from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel in the USA. It mounts using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Before ordering, though, there's a catalog conflict you should know about.
Which CR-V years
The fitment row for this piece is the Honda CR-V, 2017-2022, 4-door SUV, and the title gives the same years. An earlier version of the title named 2009-2015 instead, a span with no overlap at all, so if you saw that older wording elsewhere, go by 2017-2022 and call if you want it confirmed.
Until it's resolved, please don't rely on either range alone. Call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with your CR-V's model year and we'll confirm GC17235 fits it before you order. The Fitment tab shows the row as it's currently listed.
It's not a replacement cap
Whatever year your CR-V is, this part is not a replacement cap and not a replacement part. You MUST have the existing gas door to install this piece. It mounts on the outer face of that door.
What you're getting
One piece of polished 304 stainless steel. The gauge is 26, a thin sheet that keeps the overlay slim on a door that opens and closes. It installs directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
No cross-listed trim
This sheet has no matching CR-V parts listed with it. That's one more reason to confirm fitment by phone; we can tell you what else is available for your model year at the same time.
Preparing the door
Open and close the fuel door to make sure it moves freely and sits flush. Check the paint on its face for chips or peeling and fix any problems first. Then wash, rinse, wipe with degreaser, and let it dry.
Installing
With the door closed and the liner still on, hold the trim in position. Adjust until the border is the same on every side, then mark the spot on the body with painter's tape. Peel the liner, align, and press firmly across the entire face. Press again after a minute. Open and close the door slowly to check clearance. The Installation tab has full instructions.
Centering
Step back a few feet after the dry fit and look straight at it. On a part this size a slight tilt shows, so take a moment longer.
What to have ready when you call
Your CR-V's model year, and whether its fuel door is in good shape. With those two things we can sort out the year question quickly.
Weather and care
Install on a dry day with mild temperatures and keep it dry overnight. After that, mild soap and a soft cloth are all it needs. Wipe off fuel drips.
Summary

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.
