Product Description
Dodge Caliber 2007-2012 Tapered Lower Kit, 2.25"-2", 6 Pieces (TH47950)
TH47950 is a six-piece Lower Kit for the Dodge Caliber four-door hatchback, 2007-2012. The polished stainless steel has a tapered width given as 2.25" - 2", and the note says it "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Two Caliber Lower Kits
- TH47950 (this kit): six pieces, tapered from two and a quarter inches to two inches.
- TH47951: four pieces, 4", with the note "On the doors only."
Both follow the bottom edge, but they differ in width, piece count and wording. This record doesn't carry the "doors only" note and doesn't say whether its further pieces go beyond the doors. Compare the product photos of both and call 877-752-3811 if you can't tell which suits your car.
The taper
The width changes by a quarter inch along the kit. The record lists it as 2.25" to 2" but doesn't say which end is which or whether each piece tapers. Lay the pieces out and match them to the photos before installing.
Material
For the 2007-2012 Caliber hatchback, QAA cuts six strips in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, and they rise from the door bottom on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Dodge.
Prep
Check the bottom edges for chips and dents first. Then wash, rinse, dry, and wipe the lower band with isopropyl alcohol.
Install
Painter's tape holds each piece while you check it with the door shut. Peel a little liner, set the end flush with the bottom edge, and press along. Firm pressure to finish. Keep each taper running the way the photos show.

Before ordering
A Caliber hatchback from 2007 to 2012 with clean, straight door bottoms. Then the real decision: this six-piece tapered kit or the four-piece four-inch doors-only kit. Put painter's tape at about two inches on one door and at four inches on another, walk around the car, and see which look you prefer. If you still can't decide, or you want to know exactly where the six pieces go, call 877-752-3811 with a photo of a full side.
Caliber taper spacing
Measure from the Caliber's door gaps to keep piece positions consistent.
A helper
Someone steadying the door keeps each piece flush with the edge.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 6 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.
