Product Description
Nissan Altima 2002-2006 Two-Piece Rear Deck Accent, Polished Stainless (RD22550)
RD22550 is a two-piece rear deck accent set rather than a single strip, made for the Nissan Altima 4-door sedan from 2002 through 2006. Both pieces are 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA, and they mount over the existing surface with 3M tape.
Two pieces, layout not described
The catalog says there are two pieces but does not describe where each one sits or how they split the lid. The product photos are the place to see the arrangement. If anything is unclear, call before ordering.
Five model years
2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006, sedan body. QAA also sells a one-piece deck accent for a later Altima, so check your year.
Paint on an older car
An Altima from these years has had a lot of sun and washes. Before you commit to placement, look at the trunk lid in good light. Faded or chalky clearcoat and layers of old wax both get in the way of a good tape bond, so clean down to sound paint and repair any flaking first.
Window packages and pillars
- WP22550, ten pieces: upper trim and pillar posts, no window sills
- WP22551, four pieces: upper trim only
- PP22550 and PP22551, pillar kits in four and six pieces
- PP25552, an eight-piece pillar kit
Other Altima trim
DH22550 is a 12-piece door handle accent kit. GC22550 is the gas door cover, and LP22550 is the license plate bezel. TH25550 is an eight-piece rocker set, 5.7 inches wide, that installs below the door and also spans up from the bottom of the door.
Material
26-gauge 304 stainless, mirror polished. No plating on the surface.
Mounting
Both Altima deck pieces go on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, it will hold for a lifetime without damaging the sedan.
Fitting two pieces
Lay both on the lid with their liners on and match the photos. Measure each one from its ends to the lid edges, and mark with painter's tape so they line up with each other. Install one, check the other against it, then peel and press the second. Work on a dry, mild day, pressing from the center of each piece outward.
Care
Wait a few days to wash. Mild soap and a soft cloth; nothing abrasive. Dry the lid after rinsing.
A note on the SKU numbers
Two linked parts break the pattern: the eight-piece pillar kit is PP25552 and the rocker set is TH25550, while the rest of this Altima's parts use the 22550 range. They are linked to the same 2002 to 2006 sedan in the data, but if the numbering makes you unsure, call to confirm before ordering.
Before ordering
Check the year and the sedan body, look at the photos to understand the two-piece layout, and inspect the trunk paint. If you plan to fit the bezel or window trim, ordering together keeps the prep to one session.

Installation tips: Rear Deck Accent
- Unpack all 2 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- 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.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
