Product Description
Cadillac XTS 2018-2019 Trunk Accent, 0.75-Inch Polished Stainless (RD58245)
RD58245 fits the Cadillac XTS for just two model years, 2018 and 2019, 4-door sedan. It is a three-quarter-inch strip of mirror-polished 304 stainless steel for the trunk lid, made in the USA as a single piece, with 3M tape.
Two years only
2018 and 2019. If your XTS is from another year, this listing doesn't cover it; call to ask.
Rear bumper and plate pieces
The linked parts focus on the back of the car:
- BC58245, a two-piece bumper cap trim accent that goes on the rear bumper
- LPS58245, a two-piece license plate surround described as extension trim
- WQ58245, a four-piece wheel well accent set
The data doesn't describe exactly where the bumper caps or plate extensions sit, so the photos are the reference.
A slim accent
Three-quarters of an inch reads as a fine polished line. Painter's tape of that width placed where the photos show it gives a good preview.
Steel
26-gauge 304 stainless with a mirror polish. No plating; the finish is the metal itself.
Tape
This 0.75" XTS deck strip is fitted with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime and won't damage the trunk's finish.
Preparing the trunk
A narrow strip has a small bonding area. Wash the lid, dry it, and wipe the footprint with a residue-free cleaner until a fresh cloth picks up nothing. If there's a ceramic coating or film on the lid, call first.
Laying out
Liner on, hold the strip in place and compare with the photos. Measure each end to the lid edges and mark a line with painter's tape. Check from directly behind, since a thin strip shows any tilt.
Mounting
On a dry, mild day, peel the liner and press from the center outward. If you're also fitting the bumper caps and plate surround, do the trunk first and work downward.
Care
No XTS wash for a few days. Afterward use a soft cloth with mild soap.
What it is
It is a decorative accent for the XTS trunk lid; it doesn't replace any factory part, and the trunk opens and closes as before.
Why stainless
Solid 304 stainless shows the same steel under a light scuff. The mirror look comes from polishing the metal itself, so there is no thin top layer to wear through over time.
Planning the rear
The bumper caps and plate surround are each two pieces, so with this strip you'd be fitting five pieces at the back. Hold them all up with liners on before committing, and judge the spacing from the curb. Once the trunk strip is on, the others are easier to position around it.
Install conditions
Shade or a garage works best. Foam tape bonds poorly to a lid that's hot from the sun or cold from the night, and even light helps you see whether a narrow strip is level.
Before ordering
Confirm 2018 or 2019 and the sedan body, then decide whether you also want the rear pieces.

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.
