Long bed, Regular Cab, flares: that's the combination MI49311 is tagged for on the 2009 through 2014 Ford F-150. The kit is ten strips of polished 304 stainless steel, 1.5 inches wide, which mount with 3M tape over the body side moldings already on the truck.
The row in full
Ford F-150, 2009 to 2014, 2-door, pickup truck, Regular Cab, 8' bed, "w/ Flares." The title agrees on the years. No other configuration is listed for this kit.
Why each tag matters
Regular Cab. The insert kit shown with details on this sheet, MI49301, is a Super Cab kit, and the accent trims AT49306 and AT49316 are Crew Cab parts, so they're not substitutes.
8' bed. The one Regular Cab part with details here, AT49308, is tagged for the 6.5' bed. Confirm yours by measuring the bed floor from front wall to closed tailgate, or from build paperwork.
Flares. This kit is tagged "w/ Flares." AT49308 is tagged "NO Flares." If your truck doesn't have flares, call for the right listing.
If any tag is uncertain, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with MI49311.
Construction
Ten 1.5 inch strips of 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished, made in the USA. Mounting is 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, installed directly over the existing surface; no drilling. For MI49311, follow the Installation tab's prep section. The record doesn't assign each strip a position; the photos do.
Before you begin
Walk around the truck and check every molding. Cracks, lifting ends and leftover adhesive need dealing with first, since the tape bonds only to a sound, clean surface. Measure across one molding's flat face and compare it with 1.5 inches and the photos.
Install
Wash, dry and alcohol-wipe the moldings. Lay out the ten strips by the photos and number the liners. Dry-fit each with the liner on, keeping ends near the flares clear unless the photos show otherwise, and mark both ends with painter's tape. Peel, place and press firmly. A few strips, then sight along them from the front, then the rest. A helper makes the dry fit easier. The Installation tab gives the temperature range for the tape.
Timing and weather
Tape installs go best on a dry, mild day with the truck parked out of the rain. Take your time laying out all ten strips, and hold off on the truck's first wash for a while after they're on. A slow, careful dry fit gives you the straightest line.
Gas door and mirror covers
GC49308 is a 1-piece gas door cover trim. MC49307 is a 2-piece mirror cover set, top half only, and MC49310 is a 4-piece full hybrid mirror cover kit with a removable piece for the turn signal cut out when applicable. All three are tagged for 2-door and 4-door pickups. Twenty-six further parts are listed by number only.

Installation tips: Body Molding Insert Trim Kit
- Unpack all 10 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.
