Product Description
Ford Taurus 2010-2019 Lower Kit, 1.125"-1.625" Tapered, 8 Pieces (TH50490)
For the Ford Taurus sedan from 2010 through 2019, TH50490 is a narrow band of polished stainless steel for the bottom of all four doors. There are eight pieces. They start at the lower door edge and rise to a tapered 1.125"-1.625".
Ten years of Taurus
One fitment row covers the 4-door sedan from 2010 to 2019, with no trim exclusions on the record.
Half an inch of taper
The two figures differ by half an inch, which is a noticeable change along a piece. The record doesn't say which end is wider. Tape a piece to its door and compare it with the photos before you commit.
Wheel well kits and this kit
Two wheel well accents are linked. WQ50491 is noted "Full Length." WQ50490 is noted "Cut to fit with Rocker kit sold separately." The record doesn't say which rocker kit it means. If you plan to use WQ50490 with this Lower Kit, call 877-752-3811 first.
Pillars and inserts
The pillar post sets PP50490, PP50491 and PP50492 (four, six and eight pieces) each note "Includes keyless entry touch pad." MI50490 is a four-piece, 1" insert kit "With point contoured ends." All are sold separately. Check each listing for its finish.
The steel
Ford's 2010-2019 Taurus takes eight tapered strips that QAA forms in the USA out of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, rising from the door bottom on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. QAA states that tape will hold for a lifetime with no harm to the sedan.
Sorting
Eight pieces, four doors, no layout given. Use the photos and label each liner.
Prep
Clean the door bottoms with soap and water, dry them, then use an isopropyl alcohol wipe.
Install
Hold, check, peel, press. Painter's tape keeps each piece in place while you open and close the door. Then peel the liner gradually and press firmly along the full length.
Taurus spacing
Hold the same Taurus measurements on every door so the strips line up.
Afterward
Leave the Taurus trim unwashed for a day after fitting.
Contact
Before ordering
Confirm you have a Taurus sedan from 2010 to 2019. The record names only this model. If your car has aftermarket guards or body pieces near the bottom of the doors, send a photo to 877-752-3811 first.
Previewing the line
Run a strip of painter's tape along the bottom of a door, about an inch and a half tall, and look at it from the front corner. That gives you a fair sense of the band before anything sticks.
What you'll need
Soap and a bucket, two or three clean towels, isopropyl alcohol, painter's tape, a tape measure and a marker for the liners. A helper is useful on the longer pieces.
Door bottoms
Check the lower edges for chips and loose paint before cleaning and repair them first, because the tape needs sound paint underneath. Old adhesive residue should come off too.
Conditions
A dry, mild day in shade or a garage gives the tape its best start. Avoid cold, damp mornings.

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.
