Product Description
Dodge Nitro 2007-2011 Polished Stainless License Bar with Logo Cut Out (LB47940)
If you own a Dodge Nitro, LB47940 is a single polished stainless steel bar for the liftgate above the rear plate, with a cutout for the logo. The fitment row is the Dodge Nitro 4-door SUV, 2007 through 2011, five model years, and the catalog note is short: With Logo Cut Out.
The bar is 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished, made in the USA, and cataloged as a License Plate Bar Accent. It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and installs directly over the existing surface, so the liftgate isn't drilled. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
The questions that matter
Is your logo still in its original spot? The cut out frames it, so if it has been removed or relocated, the opening won't make sense. Is anything else nearby? The catalog doesn't mention key access or a camera opening, and it gives no width. The photos show the shape and position; compare them with your Nitro. If something doesn't match, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with LB47940 before you order.
Install with the logo as your guide
Wash, dry and alcohol-wipe the area, taking care along the edges around the Nitro logo. Hold the bar in place with the liner on and center the logo inside the cutout. Look from behind the vehicle to confirm the bar is level, then mark the ends with painter's tape. Peel, align and press firmly along the length and around the opening. Press again after a minute. Avoid slamming the liftgate for the first day. The Installation tab has the temperature range.
Planning the back of the Nitro
Three rear parts are listed alongside this bar. LP47940 is a one-piece license plate bezel. RB47940 is a one-piece rear bumper trim accent at 8.75". RD47940 is a one-piece part cataloged as Rear Deck Accent at 1.25". The catalog doesn't describe how these sit relative to each other on the Nitro, so put all four listings' photos side by side before choosing a combination.
Sides and more
PP47940 and PP47941 are pillar post kits of four and six pieces. TH47940 is a six-piece lower rocker kit at 3.75" that spans from the bottom of the door up, and TH47941 is a four-piece insert kit at 1" noted Side Molding. WQ47940, WS47940 and SG47940 are named by number only on this sheet; open those listings for details. Check each listing's photos for its finish.
Older paint
Paint on a Nitro from these years may have chips, worn clear coat or old adhesive around the plate. The tape needs a clean, sound surface, so inspect it closely, fix any flaking first, and take your time with the cleaning.
One piece, one session
With a single bar and a built-in reference point, the job fits easily into an afternoon, and most of that is cleaning and waiting for the surface to dry. If the bezel or rear accents are planned too, fit the bar first and judge the rest afterward.
Afterward, wash it with mild soap and water.

Installation tips: License Plate Bar Accent
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
