Product Description
Honda Element 2003-2008 Door-Only Trim With Crease, 3.25", Four Pieces (TH25270)
TH25270 is a four-piece polished stainless steel Lower Kit for the 2003-2008 Honda Element. It's 3.25" wide and carries two notes: "With trim crease" and "On the doors only, spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Doors only, four pieces
The kit stays on the doors and doesn't reach the fenders, the rear quarter panels or the area below the doors. The listing tags the Element as a 4-door SUV. It doesn't say which piece goes on which door, so match them with the photos.
Check your doors against the photos
The listing names a trim crease without describing it, and the lower doors are where it matters. Put the photos side by side with your own doors. If the surface shape, any trim, or the condition of the lower edges looks different, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Six model years
Honda Element, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008.
Nothing else attached
No related parts are linked to this listing. Ask when you call if you're interested in other Element trim.
Material and tape
The four creased 3.25" Element strips go on the doors only; QAA forms them in the USA out of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless and sets them with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the 2003-2008 SUV.
Measure the band
Mark three and a quarter inches up from the bottom of each door with painter's tape. Everything below that line will be under steel and has to be smooth, sound paint.
Preparing the surface
Wash, rinse and dry the lower doors. Touch up chips and let the paint cure. Wipe the band with isopropyl alcohol twice, using a clean cloth each time, and make sure the very bottom edge is dry.
Step by step
- Identify each door's piece from the photos.
- Hold it in place, liner on, bottom edge on the door bottom.
- Close the door slowly to check the ends.
- Peel a few inches, press across the full width, and continue.
One look throughout
With two pieces on, compare their front and rear ends with the photos before peeling the next liner.
What you'll need
For the Element: soap, touch-up paint, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a ruler, and no bolts at all.
The look
A wide band of polished steel low on each door, with the crease following the photos and the rest of the SUV left as it is.
Conditions
A warm, dry day suits the tape. Let a cold SUV warm up in a garage first, and don't wash it for about a day.
Care
Rinse salt off the doors in winter, dry the steel to prevent spots, and use non-abrasive polish only.
Before ordering
Have your model year and a photo of one lower door ready if you call 877-752-3811; that's usually enough to confirm the crease and the fit.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 4 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.
