Product Description
Jeep Compass 2011-2016 Rear Deck Accent, 1.5-Inch Polished Stainless (RD51075)
For the Jeep Compass 4-door SUV from 2011 to 2016, RD51075 is a strip of polished stainless for the rear gate. It is 1.5 inches wide, one piece of 304 stainless steel with a mirror finish, made in the USA, mounting with 3M tape.
Six Compass years
2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016.
Same width on the sides
The linked rocker part, TH51075, is a four-piece insert kit described as side molding, and it is also 1.5 inches wide. Fitting both puts an equal-width band along the sides and across the back.
Pillar kits in three counts
PP51075 has four pieces, PP51076 six, and PP51077 eight. The data doesn't break down which pillars each covers, so compare the photos, or call, to pick the one that matches the look you want.
Plate and sills
- LP51075, a one-piece license plate bezel
- WS51075, a four-piece window sill trim set
Where it goes
QAA lists this as a rear deck accent. On the Compass it mounts on the liftgate.
Try it with tape
An inch and a half is easy to preview: cut painter's tape to that width and lay it where the photos put the strip. Step back and look.
What it's made of
26-gauge 304 stainless, polished to a mirror. No plating, so there is nothing to flake.
How it stays on
On the Compass, the gate strip sticks with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape to the existing surface. According to QAA, the tape keeps its grip for a lifetime without harming the Jeep.
Clean the gate
Wash, dry, and then wipe the footprint with a residue-free cleaner until the cloth comes away clean. Wax and road film are what keep foam tape from bonding. Repair chips or peeling clearcoat first.
Lining it up
Liner on, set the strip by the photos. Measure each end to the gate edges and mark a guide with painter's tape. If the bezel is also going on, hold it up to check spacing.
Press it down
Choose a dry, moderate day. Peel the liner, set the strip on the guide, and press from the middle toward both ends. The Installation tab covers the details.
Aftercare
Let the tape cure a few days before washing. Use mild soap and a soft cloth.
Why stainless
The record doesn't state the linked Compass parts' material, so check those listings if you want the gate, sills, and pillars to match. Solid 304 shows the same steel under a light scuff.
Decorative, not structural
A deck accent is bright trim on top of the gate; it does not replace any factory part. Because it mounts on tape over the paint, the gate, its latch, and anything else back there keep working as before. If you have a hitch-mounted carrier or accessory near the gate, check that it won't rub the strip.
Before ordering
Confirm your year, and if you want matching sides, consider the 1.5-inch rocker insert along with this strip.

Installation tips: Rear Deck 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.
