Product Description
Lincoln Nautilus 2024-2026 Liftgate Accent, 2.5-Inch Polished Stainless (RD74660)
Two and a half inches is a wide strip by any measure, and that's what RD74660 brings to the rear of the Lincoln Nautilus 4-door SUV, model years 2024 through 2026. One piece of 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror and made in the USA.
Bold on purpose
At this width, the accent is a band rather than a pinstripe. Before ordering, cut painter's tape to two and a half inches, stretch it across the liftgate where the product photos place the strip, and look from several distances. If you like a strong horizontal element at the back, this is it; if you want a hairline, it isn't.
How it attaches
It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and the strip installs over the existing surface without removing anything. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.

The rear has RW74660, a two-piece rear window trim, and LP74660, a license plate bezel. On the sides: WQ74660, a four-piece wheel well accent at 1.5 inches; MI74660, an eight-piece body molding insert kit, also 1.5 inches; and GC74660 for the gas door.
The windows offer WP74660, fourteen pieces of upper trim and pillar posts with no sills, and WP74661, six pieces of upper trim only. Pillar kits come in four, six, and eight pieces: PP74660, PP74661, PP74662.
The data doesn't state those parts' materials, so check each listing for its finish.
Proportion with the side pieces
The wheel well and molding insert kits are both listed at 1.5 inches, narrower than this strip. If you're dressing the sides and the rear, that difference is something to look at in the photos.
Wide strip, careful prep
More tape means more surface to clean. Wash and dry the gate. Wipe the full footprint with a residue-free cleaner, using fresh cloths until none picks up anything. Repair any chips first.
Laying it level
- Liner on, hold it to the photos.
- Measure from both ends to the gate edges.
- Tape guide lines along both the top and bottom edges.
- Peel, press at the center, and work outward across the full width.
Mild, dry weather gives the best bond. The Installation tab has all the steps.
Clearance
Hold the strip in place and check that nothing on the gate, such as a badge, handle, or camera, sits in its path.
Long-term
Wait a few days before washing. Use mild soap and a soft cloth. Solid polished 304 has no plating to wear through.
Light and patience
A broad mirror-polished band reflects everything around it, which can make it hard to judge level in bright sun. Work in shade or a garage, and step back between each adjustment rather than eyeballing it up close.
Why stainless at this size
On a strip this wide, any flaw in a plated finish would show. Solid 304 has no plating at all; a light scuff reveals more of the same steel.
What it is
A decorative accent, not a factory replacement. The liftgate works as before.

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.
