Product Description
Nissan Altima Sedan 2007-2012 Stainless Front Vent / Fog Light Trim, 2 Pieces (FV27550)
FV27550 is a pair of polished stainless accents for the front of the Nissan Altima 4-door sedan, 2007 through 2012. The title and the part-type field call it a front vent accent, while the included-items line lists it as fog light trim. Both point to the lower front of the car. The pieces are 304 stainless steel at 26 gauge, made in the USA.
Vent or fog light?
The included-items line uses a different name from the title, and we've flagged the wording for review. What's clear is that this is a two-piece trim for the front of the Altima sedan. The catalog doesn't give dimensions or describe the exact shape, so the product photos are the best reference. Compare them with the front of your car, and if your Altima's front end looks different, call before ordering.
Sedan, not coupe
The fitment row is Nissan Altima, 2007-2012, 4-door Sedan. Several Altima listings on this sheet are for the 2-door coupe instead, so it's worth being careful when you shop for more than one part.

Material and mounting
Polished 304 stainless, 26 gauge, bright from the polish of the steel itself. Both pieces install directly over the existing surface on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so there's no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Cleaning the lower front
The lower front of a car catches bugs, road film and grit. Wash the area with a soft brush, getting into the edges, then rinse and degrease until a clean cloth comes away clean. Check that the surface is sound. Let it dry.
Placing the pair
Dry-fit both pieces with the liners on and check them from directly in front of the car, so they match. Mark the edges with painter's tape. Peel one liner, align, and press firmly over the whole piece; press again after a minute. The second piece goes on with the same steps. The Installation tab has full prep.
Why accent the front
Polished trim at the lower front brightens the Altima's face and leaves the parts underneath unchanged.
Before ordering
Confirm a 2007-2012 Altima sedan and compare the photos with your front end.
Getting the pieces even
Measure from a fixed point, like the grille edge, to each piece and match the numbers before pressing.
Conditions
Mild, dry day out of direct sun; keep it dry overnight.
Care
Mild soap and a soft cloth keep these clean.

Installation tips: Front Vent Accent
- 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.
