Product Description
Nissan Maxima 2004-2008 Stainless License Plate Bezel, 1 Piece (LP24540)
LP24540 is a one-piece polished stainless License Plate Bezel for the Nissan Maxima 4-door sedan, model years 2004 through 2008. The row lists five years, sedan only, with no trim exclusions. It's made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish.
Bezel or surround?
The Maxima sheet lists a second part for the same area, and it's easy to mix them up. LPS24540 is a two-piece License Plate Surround Trim for the same sedan. The catalog doesn't explain how the two-piece surround differs from this one-piece bezel in shape or coverage, and it gives no dimensions for either, so we can't tell you which areas each one covers. The best way to choose is to put the two sets of product photos side by side and compare them with your car. If that still leaves a question, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention both LP24540 and LPS24540, so you don't end up with two parts for the same spot.
How it's installed
It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface, so nothing gets drilled. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Since these model years run from 2004 to 2008, start with a close look at the paint around the plate and repair chips, lifting clear coat or residue from old frames. Then pull the plate, wash and dry the area, and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Hold the bezel in position with the liner on, confirm from behind that it's centered, and mark it with painter's tape. Peel the liner, place it on the marks and press firmly around the frame, then go around again. The temperature range is on the Installation tab.

Check the outline
No size or cutout notes appear on this listing. Compare the photos with the area around your plate, including any lock, emblem or lights, before you buy.
Why one piece
A one-piece bezel goes on in a single placement, so there are no joints to line up between parts. That makes the dry fit simple: once it looks centered and even from behind the car, you're ready to peel the liner.
Final checks
Check that your records show a Maxima sedan between 2004 and 2008. If you run a frame on the plate, refit it during the dry fit to make sure it doesn't overlap the bezel. Care is simple: mild soap, water and a soft towel, and no abrasive pads on the polished face.

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.
