Product Description
Buick Verano 2012-2017 Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP52540)
LP52540 is one of several stainless parts cataloged for the Buick Verano 4-door sedan. The bezel itself is a single piece for model years 2012 through 2017, six years on one fitment row with no exclusions, and it's cross-listed with six other parts for the same car. If you're planning more than one piece, the list below helps you decide where to start.
What the bezel is
A License Plate Bezel frames the plate area. This one is 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish and made in the USA. The shine is the steel itself, not a plated coating, and the thin sheet follows the surface it's mounted on. The catalog doesn't give its dimensions, so the product photos are the reference for shape.
Parts listed alongside it
Each of these is cataloged for the 2012-2017 Verano 4-door sedan. RD52540 is a one-piece Rear Deck Accent at 0.875". GC52540 is a one-piece Gas Door Cover Trim. There are three Pillar Post Trim kits: PP52540 with four pieces, PP52541 with six, and PP52542 with eight. The eight-piece kit's note says it includes the front pillar section behind the mirror, where two pieces cover that area but count as one in the kit's piece count. TH52541 is a two-piece Rocker Panel Trim at 1.25", noted to install below the door. Each listing carries its own finish and mounting details, so check those pages for specifics.
Because the deck trim and the bezel are both cataloged for the back of the sedan, it makes sense to hold them up together during a dry fit if you're buying both. The catalog doesn't describe how their edges relate, and seeing them in place is the surest check.
Mounting and prep
The bezel mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and installs directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Start with sound paint: repair chips or peeling clear coat near the plate first. Clean off any old adhesive, wash with soap and water, let it dry, and wipe with rubbing alcohol.
For the dry fit, leave the backing on and position the bezel by eye from a few steps behind the car. Once the margins look even, mark them with painter's tape, peel, line up and press firmly all the way around. The Installation tab covers the steps and the temperature range the tape needs.
Before you buy
Check the Verano's year, then compare the product photos with your own car. A plate frame should be tried during the dry fit so you know it clears. Questions about the bezel or about combining it with the other parts can go to Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811; mention LP52540 and any other SKUs you're considering.

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.
