Product Description
Lincoln MKS 2013-2016 Rear Deck Accent, Polished Stainless (RD53625)
For the later Lincoln MKS sedan, model years 2013 through 2016, RD53625 is the rear deck accent. It is a single piece of mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and it attaches with 3M tape. The data does not record its width or length.
Four MKS years
2013, 2014, 2015, 2016. 4-door sedan. An MKS from the years before this range has its own separate listing, so check your registration.
No dimensions on file
Without a published size, compare the product photos to your trunk. Note where the strip ends relative to the lid's edges and badges. If you'd like an actual measurement, call before you order.
Wheel well sets
The two linked parts are both wheel well accent trims with eight pieces each:
- WQ53625: cut to fit with a rocker kit sold separately
- WQ53626: full length
No rocker kit is linked to this MKS record. If you aren't buying one, the full-length set is the straightforward choice; call to ask about rocker trim.
The material
26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror. Because there's no plating, the bright surface is the steel all the way through.
The mounting
The MKS strip fastens with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and sits on the trunk surface already there. QAA says the tape keeps hold for a lifetime without harming the Lincoln.
Paint prep
Wash the trunk and let it dry. Wipe where the strip will go with a residue-free cleaner, then repeat with a clean cloth until it picks up nothing. If any clearcoat is flaking, repair it first; tape holds only as well as the surface under it.
Lining up
Hold the strip in place with the liner still attached. Use the photos as your reference, measure from each end to the lid edges, and make the two numbers match. Mark the line with painter's tape.
Pressing on
On a dry day that isn't hot or cold, peel the liner and press from the center outward. Firm, even pressure along the length helps the tape seat. Full steps are on the Installation tab.
Care
Leave it for a few days before washing. After that, mild soap and a soft cloth.
What a deck accent is
A decorative strip for the trunk lid. It doesn't replace any factory part.
Why stainless
A light scuff on solid 304 shows more of the same steel, with no base layer underneath.
Planning the wheel wells
If you buy one of the eight-piece sets, do the trunk first while you have the cleaning supplies out, then work around the car one opening at a time. The two sets differ only in the cut-to-fit versus full-length note the data gives.
Light and temperature
Shade or a garage is ideal. A lid warmed by direct sun or chilled overnight won't give the tape its best start.
Before ordering
Confirm the year range and compare the photos with your trunk lid.

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.
