Product Description
Cadillac CTS Sedan 2014-2019 Rear Bumper Accent, 304 Stainless (RB54250)
On the Cadillac CTS 4-door sedan from 2014 to 2019, RB54250 is one mirror-polished stainless steel accent for the rear bumper. It is 304 stainless, made in the USA, and installs over the existing surface with 3M tape.
Six years of the CTS sedan
The record covers 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, and lists only the 4-door sedan.
The back of the CTS, piece by piece
Several linked QAA items sit near this accent:
- RT54250, a one-piece spoiler accent
- LB54250, a two-piece license bar extension trim
- LP54250, a license plate bezel
- GC54250, a gas door cover
With the spoiler accent up top, the plate pieces in the middle, and this strip on the bumper, the rear gets a layered polished look in one consistent metal.
Regular or long pillar posts
The pillar kits come in two lengths. PP54250 and PP54251 are the four- and six-piece standard kits. PP54444 and PP54445 are four- and six-piece kits marked "LONG VERSION," and QAA asks buyers to refer to the accompanying image. Compare the photos of both before choosing.
Rockers in four styles
TH54253 is a two-piece on-the-rocker kit at 1.25 inches. TH54251 is four pieces on the rocker, 1.5 to 2.125 inches. TH54250 is an eight-piece lower kit at 2.25 to 3.5 inches. TH54252 combines on-the-rocker and lower trim in ten pieces at 5.25 inches. AT54250 is a four-piece side molding accent, one inch wide, and WP54250 is a ten-piece window package with upper trim and pillar posts but no sills.
What a bumper accent brings
A strip of polished steel bonded to the bumper cover. It is decorative and does not change the bumper.
Material and attachment
The CTS accent is 26-gauge 304 stainless with a mirror polish, and 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape lets it sit on the bumper surface already there. Per QAA, the tape holds for a lifetime without damaging the Cadillac.
Surface prep on a newer sedan
Owners of later model years often have a ceramic coating or sealant on the paint. Tape struggles on those, so clear a small area where the accent will sit. Wash, dry, and finish with a residue-free cleaner.
Installation
Dry-fit with the liner on. Measure from both ends to the bumper corners and mark the line with masking tape. On a dry, mild day, peel and press from the center outward. Wait a few days before washing. Full steps are on the Installation tab.
Care
Wash with mild soap and dry with a soft cloth; no abrasive pads.
Why one material throughout
For every linked CTS piece, from the spoiler accent to the rocker kits, check its own listing for the finish. That means you can buy pieces over time and they will still match the bumper accent. There is no plating on any of them to age at a different rate.
Before you order
Confirm the sedan body and a model year from 2014 to 2019 on your registration. Check the photos of any piece you plan to fit.

Installation tips: Rear Bumper Trim 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.
