Product Description
Dodge Nitro 2007-2011 Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP47940)
For the Dodge Nitro 4-door SUV from 2007 through 2011, LP47940 is the one-piece License Plate Bezel. The fitment row covers five model years and lists no trim exclusions. It's mirror-polished 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, shaped to frame the plate area.
Four parts for the rear
The Nitro sheet lists four parts for the back of the vehicle, so it's worth sorting out what each piece is before you order. This bezel outlines the plate area; no width is listed. LB47940 is a one-piece License Plate Bar Accent, noted With Logo Cut Out. RB47940 is a one-piece Rear Bumper Trim Accent at 8.75". RD47940 is a one-piece part cataloged as Rear Deck Accent at 1.25". The catalog doesn't describe how any of them relate to one another in position, so the product photos are the way to plan a combination. Open them side by side, and when the parts arrive, hold them up together with their liners on before installing any. If you'd like help, Quality Automotive Trims can talk it through at 877-752-3811; give them LP47940 and the other SKUs you're weighing.
The bezel's shape
No cutout notes appear on the bezel's listing. The logo cut out note belongs to the bar. Compare the photos with the area around your plate, including any lock, handle, emblem or lighting.
Mounting
It installs directly over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so there's no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Repair chips or lifting clear coat first and remove old adhesive. Wash, dry and wipe with rubbing alcohol; dry-fit with the liner on; mark with painter's tape; then peel and press firmly. The Installation tab spells out each step and the temperature range.
Along the sides
TH47940 is a six-piece lower rocker kit at 3.75" that spans from the bottom of the door up to the specified width. TH47941 is a four-piece Rocker Panel Trim, Insert Kit at 1", noted as Side Molding. PP47940 and PP47941 are pillar post kits with four and six pieces. WQ47940, WS47940 and SG47940 are cross-listed by number only. Check each listing for its finish.
A sensible order
Start with the bezel. Since it frames the plate, the bezel is what everything else on the Nitro's rear lines up against, and it's the easiest of the four to fit. A week or so of seeing it with the plate on helps you judge whether the bar, bumper accent or deck trim would complement the Nitro or clutter it. There's no need to fit them all at once; one at a time works fine.
Before you order
Look for a Nitro from 2007 to 2011 on your paperwork. If you run a plate frame, refit it during the dry fit to make sure it doesn't overlap the bezel. Afterward, mild soap and water and a soft towel keep the polish bright.

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.
