Product Description
Mercury Milan 2006-2009 Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP46470)
LP46470 is a plain, single-purpose listing: one polished stainless License Plate Bezel for the Mercury Milan 4-door sedan, model years 2006 through 2009. The fitment row has no trim exclusions, and no other Milan parts are cross-listed on the sheet.
Is my Milan covered?
If it's a 4-door sedan and your records show 2006, 2007, 2008 or 2009, yes. Any other year isn't on this row.
What is it made of?
26-gauge 304 stainless steel, mirror polished, made in the USA. Grade 304 is a common chromium-nickel stainless for exterior trim; the thin gauge lets a taped part sit close to the surface; and the polish gives the bright face in the product photos.
How big is it, and does it have cutouts?
The catalog doesn't say. There are no dimensions and no cutout notes. The product photos show the outline, so compare them with the area around your Milan's plate, including any lock, emblem or lighting. If the shapes don't seem to match, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with SKU LP46470 before you order.
How does it attach?
The Milan bezel mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface; nothing is drilled, and only the plate comes off. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the sedan's surface.
What does a good install take?
Mostly preparation. On a car from these years, start by inspecting the paint around the plate in good light. Touch up chips, and repair clear coat that's peeling or lifting rather than covering it, since the tape grips the top layer. Lift off old adhesive from frames or stickers with a plastic scraper. Wash with soapy water, rinse, dry fully, and wipe with rubbing alcohol until a clean cloth stays clean.
Then the dry fit. Hold the bezel in place with the liner on and look at it straight from behind. Adjust until the margins are even and mark the position with a few short strips of painter's tape. If you use a plate frame, put it on now to see whether it overlaps. Peel the liner, set the bezel against the marks, and press firmly around the frame; repeat a minute later. The Installation tab lists the temperature range.
What will I need?
Soap and water, rubbing alcohol, a few clean microfiber cloths, painter's tape, and a plastic scraper if there's old residue. A screwdriver for the plate screws. That's the whole list, because the bezel mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and needs no hardware.
Is one piece easier?
Yes, in the sense that there are no joints to line up. Your only job at placement is centering the frame, which is why the dry fit matters so much.
Can I add more Milan trim?
Nothing else is cross-listed on this sheet. Call and ask what's available for your year.
How do I keep it looking new?
Rinse grit away, wash with mild soap and water, and dry with a soft towel. Scouring pads and gritty polishes scratch a mirror finish, so leave them out.

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.
