Product Description
Jeep Compass 2011-2016 Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP51075)
LP51075 is a polished stainless License Plate Bezel for the Jeep Compass 4-door SUV, listed for the 2011 through 2016 model years. It's a single piece, made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror finish, and it frames the plate area. The fitment row has no trim tags and no notes, so every Compass in that six-year range matches the catalog.

Choosing among the pillar kits
Three Pillar Post Trim kits are listed for the same Compass: PP51075 with four pieces, PP51076 with six and PP51077 with eight. None of those three kits has a note saying which pillars the further pieces cover. If you're considering one, look at their photos side by side, or call and we'll go through them with you.
Other Compass parts
TH51075 is a four-piece Rocker Panel Trim, Insert Kit at 1.5", noted Side Molding. WS51075 is a four-piece Window Sill Trim Set. RD51075 is a one-piece rear deck accent at 1.5" for the Compass SUV, so look at its photos to see where it sits on the back. The notes and dimensions are each part's own and don't affect the bezel; for finish and mounting, read their listings.
Installing
The bezel goes directly over the existing surface on its 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Begin by inspecting the paint around the plate and repairing chips or lifting clear coat. Remove old adhesive, wash and dry the area, and wipe it with rubbing alcohol. Hold the bezel up with its liner on to check the spacing from behind the SUV, mark the spot with painter's tape, then peel and press. The Installation tab has the step order and temperature range.
Why it's a good first piece
It's one part with nothing else to align, and it lets you see how polished stainless looks against your Compass before you choose anything larger.
Getting the dry fit right
The foam tape grabs as soon as it meets clean paint, so most of the care goes into the moments before the liner comes off. Work on a dry, mild day, in shade if you can. Look at the bezel from straight behind and from a slight angle, and only peel once the painter's tape marks agree with what your eye tells you. A second person to judge from a few steps back makes this easier, but it isn't essential.
Care
Try your plate frame during the dry fit so it clears the bezel. Clean with mild soap, water and 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.
