Product Description
Lincoln MKZ 2006-2008 and Zephyr 2006 Stainless License Plate Bezel and Surround, 2 Pieces (LPS46630)
LPS46630 is a two-piece set the catalog calls a "License Plate Bezel and Surround Trim." The title and the Fitment tab agree on two rows: the Lincoln MKZ 4-door sedan from 2006 through 2008, and the Lincoln Zephyr 4-door sedan for 2006 alone. Neither row carries a trim exclusion. The two pieces work together around the plate, so a 2006 owner of either nameplate is on the list, and an MKZ owner has two more years, 2007 and 2008, to choose from. Zephyr owners who want to be sure can call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with the SKU.
The part name hints at what the two pieces are, a bezel and a surround, but the catalog doesn't spell out which piece is which, how they sit relative to each other, or their dimensions. That's where the product photos come in. Study them with your own sedan in view, note where each piece appears to go, and look for anything near the plate the set would need to clear.
Both pieces are 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish and made in the USA. Stainless holds its shine without a plated top layer, so there's nothing on the surface to flake. The set mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface, so you won't drill. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
These sedans have some years on them, so give the paint around the plate an honest look before you start. Chips, fading or clear coat that has begun to lift should be repaired first, because the tape can only grip as well as the finish beneath it. Then clear off old frame or sticker adhesive, wash with soap and water, let it dry completely and wipe with rubbing alcohol.
With two pieces, the dry fit is the most important part of the job. Hold both in place with their liners on, step back and look at them together. Adjust until they line up the way the photos show and the margins look even, then mark each piece's position with painter's tape. Install one piece at a time: peel, align to its marks and press firmly along every edge, then repeat with the second. The Installation tab lists the steps and the temperature range the tape needs.
No other parts are linked to this set on its record. If you're looking for more trim for your MKZ or Zephyr, call 877-752-3811 and ask what's available.
It's for the MKZ from 2006 to 2008, so confirm both. If you use a plate frame, try it during the dry fit to make sure it clears both pieces. Work on a dry, mild day and leave the bond alone for a while before the first wash. Afterward, mild soap, water and a soft cloth keep the polish bright, and abrasive pads should stay away from it.
With two pieces and no hardware, the whole job is short.

Installation tips: License Plate Bezel and Surround Trim
- Unpack all 2 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- 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.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
