Product Description
Jeep Grand Cherokee 2011-2013 Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP51080)
LP51080 is a single License Plate Bezel for the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4-door SUV, cataloged for model years 2011, 2012 and 2013. The product title writes the range in short form as 2011-13; the fitment row spells it out as 2011 through 2013, and both say the same thing. No trim, engine or build-date conditions appear on the row, and no other parts are listed on this page.
That makes the decision a narrow one. Is your SUV a Grand Cherokee from one of those three years? Your records will answer that. Does the bezel's shape suit the area around your plate? The product photos are the best guide there, so set them next to your own Jeep and look at anything near the plate before you buy. If your model year is outside the range, or something in the photos doesn't match what you see, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with SKU LP51080 before ordering.
Made from
One piece of 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish and made in the USA. It frames the plate area. The alloy resists rust on its own, without a plated layer that could chip or peel, and the thin gauge lets the bezel follow the surface it's attached to.
Attached with
3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. It installs directly over the existing surface; you don't drill anything. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Preparing the surface
The adhesive needs sound, clean paint. On a Grand Cherokee that has a few years on it, take a careful look around the plate before you begin, and get any chipping or lifting clear coat repaired first. Remove old frame or sticker residue. Wash the area with soap and water, let it dry fully, then wipe with rubbing alcohol so nothing waxy is left behind. The Installation tab lists the order of steps and the temperature range the tape requires.
Placing it
Hold the bezel against the SUV with its liner still on. Move back several steps and check that it looks even from straight behind. Once it does, set a few strips of painter's tape along its edges as guides. Peel the liner, bring the bezel to the marks in one movement, and press it firmly all the way around. Remove the painter's tape afterward.
Timing
Pick a dry, mild day for the job and give the cleaned surface time to dry completely before the tape touches it. After pressing the bezel on, leave it undisturbed for a while before the first wash so the bond can settle. The whole job, preparation included, is short, since there's only one piece and no hardware.
Keeping it bright
Cleaning takes nothing more than mild soap, water and a soft towel. Leave abrasive pads and harsh chemicals in the cupboard. If you use a plate frame, try it during the dry fit so you know it clears the bezel.

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.
