Product Description
Honda Accord Sedan 2016-2017 License Plate Bezel, 304 Stainless (LP16281)
LP16281 has a narrow window: the Honda Accord 4-door sedan for the 2016 and 2017 model years, and only those two. First of all, check the year. If it reads 2016 or 2017 and the car is the sedan, this License Plate Bezel is cataloged for it. If it's outside that pair of years, this listing doesn't cover it, and Quality Automotive Trims can help at 877-752-3811.
What you get
A single bezel that frames the plate area, made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror finish. The catalog lists no dimensions and no cutout notes, so the product photos are the guide for its outline. Hold them up against the area around your plate, including any lock, emblem or nearby lights, and if the shapes don't agree, call before you order and mention SKU LP16281.
A restriction that isn't this part's
Browsing the Accord sheet, you'll see TH16282, a two-piece on-the-rocker kit at 1.25" with the note Does not fit Sport Model. That exclusion belongs to TH16282 only. The fitment row for this bezel carries no trim exclusions, so the note doesn't apply here. If you're planning both parts, though, keep it in mind for the rocker kit. The other rocker option, TH16281, is a four-piece lower kit at 1" that sits On the doors only and spans from the bottom of the door up to the specified width.
Other Accord parts listed
AT16281 is a four-piece body side molding accent at 1". PP16281 and PP16282 are pillar post kits of four and six pieces. GC16281 is a one-piece gas door cover trim, and RB16281 a one-piece rear bumper trim accent that, like this bezel, sits at the back of the car. RD16281 and WQ16281 are cross-listed by number only. Check each listing for its finish.
Installation in brief
The bezel is backed by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and installs directly over the existing surface, with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Remove the plate and clean the paint with soapy water, then rinse, dry, and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Look for chips or flaking clear coat and repair them first. Dry-fit with the liner on, mark the spot with painter's tape, then peel and press firmly around the full frame. Give it a second firm pass. The Installation tab has the temperature guidance.
Why order it on its own
A single bezel is a quick, contained job, and seeing polished stainless at the back of your Accord in daylight is the simplest way to decide on the pillar or molding kits afterward.
Plate frames and upkeep
A frame around the plate can sit over a bezel's edge, so refit yours during the dry fit to check. Keep the stainless clean with mild soap, water and a soft towel, and avoid abrasive pads that dull the polish.

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.
