Product Description
2002-2006 Nissan Altima Sedan Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP22550)
LP22550 is a single polished stainless License Plate Bezel for the Nissan Altima 4-door sedan, model years 2002 through 2006. The fitment row covers those five years and the sedan body only, with no trim exclusions. The bezel is made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, and it frames the plate area.
Start with the paint
On a car from this range, the condition of the paint around the plate is the first thing to look at, because the bezel is held on by tape and tape can only hold as well as the surface beneath it. Take the plate off and look closely. Faded or chalky clear coat, chips at the edges of the plate area, and old adhesive from dealer frames or stickers are all worth dealing with before you start. Clear coat that is lifting or flaking should be repaired rather than covered, since the bezel would be bonding to a layer that's already letting go.
Mounting
The bezel uses 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and 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. Once the paint is sound, wash the area with soapy water, rinse, dry, and wipe it down with rubbing alcohol. Hold the bezel in position with the liner on, check from behind that the margins look even, and mark the spot with painter's tape. Peel the liner, line up with your marks and press firmly all around the frame, then press a second time. The Installation tab lists the temperature range.
Size and shape
No dimensions or cutout notes appear on the listing. The product photos show the outline, so compare them with your plate area, including any lock, emblem or lights. If something doesn't line up, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and quote LP22550.
Other Altima parts
The sheet includes DH22550, a twelve-piece door handle accent set, and GC22550, a one-piece gas door cover trim. RD22550 is a two-piece Rear Deck Accent, the other listed part for the back of the car, so compare its photos with this bezel's if you want both. PP22550 and PP22551 are pillar kits with four and six pieces, and PP25552 is an eight-piece pillar kit. TH25550 is an eight-piece rocker kit at 5.7" that Installs below the door AND Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width. Those last two numbers don't follow the series of the rest of the sheet, so we've flagged them for review; confirm them by phone before ordering. WP22550 and WP22551 are cross-listed by number only. Check each listing for its finish.
Before you order
An Altima sedan from 2002 to 2006 is what your records should show. If you run a plate frame, refit it during the dry fit to be sure it clears the bezel.
Keep the stainless clean with mild soap and water, dried with a soft towel.

Installation tips: License Plate Bezel
- 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.
