Product Description
2006-2011 Buick Lucerne Tapered Lower Kit, 2"-2.5625", 8 Pieces (TH46551)
TH46551 is an eight-piece Lower Kit for the Buick Lucerne four-door sedan, 2006-2011. The polished stainless steel has a tapered width listed as 2" - 2.5625", and the note says it "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
A taper, not a straight band
The width changes along the kit, from two inches at one end to just over two and a half at the other. The record doesn't say which end is wider or whether the taper runs across each piece or across the full side. The product photos are the best guide; if they don't settle it, call 877-752-3811.
Doors, not rocker
This kit follows the bottom edge of the doors. A separate four-piece Lucerne kit in the catalog covers the rocker below the doors and ends at 2009; it isn't linked to this record.
Wheel well trim linked here
Four wheel well accent records are linked. WQ46550 (0.5") and WQ46552 (0.875") carry the note "Cut to fit with Rocker kit sold separately." WQ46551 (0.5") and WQ46553 (0.875") are "Full Length." The data doesn't say which rocker kit the cut-to-fit versions are meant for, so ask before ordering one with this Lower Kit. WZ46550, a "SHORT Style" fender trim molding at 1.5", is linked too.
Other linked parts
GC46550 gas door cover, LP46550 plate bezel, PP46550 and PP46551 pillar posts, and RD46550 rear deck accent at 1.5".
Material
QAA builds the 2006-2011 Lucerne kit from eight tapered pieces of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA, applied to the existing door surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Buick.
Prep
Wash, rinse and dry the lower doors, then wipe the band with isopropyl alcohol down to the edge. Repair chips on the bottom edges.
Eight pieces
No layout in the data. Sort with the photos, keeping the taper direction consistent, and label the liners.
Install
Tape each piece in place with painter's tape and close the door to check it. Peel a short length of liner, set the end flush with the bottom edge, press along as the liner comes away, and finish with firm pressure.
Across the gaps
Where pieces meet at a door gap, the heights should match. Check from a few feet back.
After
Open each door; nothing should touch. A day before washing.
Care
Mild soap, soft mitt.
Weather
Dry, mild conditions or a garage.
Before ordering
Confirm a Lucerne sedan from 2006 to 2011 and clean, straight lower door edges. Put painter's tape across one door at about two and a half inches to preview the coverage. If you also want the rocker covered, or a wheel well kit, call 877-752-3811 first so we can check which records go together.
A helper
Someone steadying the door makes it easier to keep each piece flush with the bottom edge.
Mock-up
Tape on one door shows how the taper will look.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 8 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.
