Product Description
TH51576 Buick Regal 2011-2017 Rocker Strip, 2 Pieces, 1.25" - Below the Door
TH51576 is a two-piece set of polished stainless steel rocker trim for the 2011-2017 Buick Regal sedan. It "Installs below the door," and each piece is 1.25" wide.
Below the doors
This is the rocker-area option for the Regal. The linked TH51575 is an eight-piece Lower Kit that goes on the doors themselves at 1.5". The two cover different areas. The record doesn't say whether they're meant to be combined, so compare both sets of photos and choose the look you want.
Two pieces
The record doesn't describe how the two pieces are arranged or how long they are. The product photos show their shape. If you need a length before ordering, call 877-752-3811.
Regal sedan only
One fitment row: 4-door sedan, 2011 through 2017. No trim exclusions are listed.
Material
The two 1.25" 2011-2017 Regal strips sit below the doors; QAA forms them in the USA out of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel and sets them with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. Per QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Buick.
Linked Regal trim
PP51575 and PP51576 are pillar post sets of four and six pieces, and GC51575 is a gas door cover. Each is sold separately. Check each listing for its finish.
Cleaning the rocker
The area below the doors sits low and picks up road film. Brush it with soapy water, rinse, dry, and wipe with isopropyl alcohol until a white cloth stays clean.
Marking a line
A long strip is easiest to set straight against a guide. Run painter's tape along the rocker where you want the top edge, then lay the strip to it.
Two people
One holds the far end on the line while the other peels the liner and presses from the near end.
Door clearance
Open each door before pressing down and make sure its bottom edge clears.
Contact
Before ordering
Check that the area below your Regal's doors is free of aftermarket skirts or guards, and measure its height to compare with the 1.25" strip. If what you see differs from the product photos, send a photo to 877-752-3811 first.
Previewing
The painter's tape guide line doubles as a preview. Look along the car from the front corner and decide whether that's where you want the polished line before you peel anything.
Supplies
Soapy water, a soft brush, towels, isopropyl alcohol, painter's tape and a tape measure.
Conditions
A mild, dry day out of the sun.
Afterward
Give it a day before washing, and in winter rinse road salt off the rocker regularly.
Pressure
Foam tape bonds through firm pressure. After the strip is down, run your thumb along both edges and the ends. Then check it once more from the front corner of the car to make sure the line is straight.
What to send
If you call, include the year and a side photo of the Regal taken square on, showing the area below the doors clearly.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, On the rocker
- 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.
