Product Description
Chevrolet Malibu 2016-2025 Stainless License Plate Bezel (LP56105)
LP56105 covers ten model years on a single fitment row: the Chevrolet Malibu 4-door sedan from 2016 through 2025, listed without exclusions. It's a one-piece License Plate Bezel in polished stainless. The title matches the row, so owners of any Malibu sedan in that span can treat this as their bezel and spend their time on the practical checks below.
A ten-year range does raise one sensible question: does the plate area look the same on every car in it? The catalog doesn't say anything to the contrary, and it lists one bezel for the whole span, but it also doesn't publish dimensions. So compare the product photos with your own Malibu before ordering. If what you see doesn't match, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with the SKU and your model year.
The material is 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA. It has no plated surface, so the shine doesn't sit on a coating that could chip.
The Malibu has eleven linked parts. Two are cataloged for the back of the sedan: RD56105, a one-piece Rear Deck Accent at 0.75", and RB56105, a one-piece Rear Bumper Trim Accent at 2.0". If you're buying either alongside the bezel, stage all of them together before any adhesive is exposed. The others: PP56105 and PP56106, Pillar Post Trim kits of four and six pieces; TH56105, an eight-piece lower rocker kit whose note gives a tapered width of 1.5" to 2.0" and says it spans from the bottom of the door up; TH56106, a two-piece rocker trim at 1.25" that installs below the door; and MA56105, a two-piece Mirror Accent Trim. BL56105, WQ56105, GC56105 and MC56105 are linked by number only, so this sheet doesn't describe them. Each listing carries its own finish and mounting details.
The bezel mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. Nothing gets drilled. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. On a Malibu with some miles, check the paint near the plate before you start; any chips or peeling clear coat should be fixed first, since the tape only holds as well as the finish does.
Clear away old adhesive, wash with soap and water, dry completely and wipe with rubbing alcohol. With the liner still on, hold the bezel where it goes and look from behind the car. Mark its edges with painter's tape, peel, place it on the marks and press firmly around the perimeter. The Installation tab lists the steps and the temperature range for the tape, and a dry, mild day suits the work.
The Malibu listing runs from 2016 to 2025, so look up your car's year. If you use a plate frame, include it in the dry fit. Clean afterward with mild soap, water and a soft cloth. Mention LP56105 when you call 877-752-3811.
Since it's a single piece with no hardware, most of the job is preparation rather than installation.

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.
