Product Description
Subaru Legacy Sedan 2005-2009 Door-Only Trim With Crease, 2", Four Pieces (TH25445)
TH25445 is a four-piece polished stainless steel Lower Kit for the 2005-2009 Subaru Legacy sedan. It's 2" wide, noted "With Trim Crease," and the placement note reads "On the doors only, spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Two inches, doors only
The steel stays on the door skins, starting at the bottom edge and rising two inches. It doesn't continue onto the fenders, rear quarters or rocker.
The crease
The listing names it but doesn't describe it. Compare the product photos with your Legacy's lower doors. If they look different, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Fitment
Subaru Legacy, 4-door sedan, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009.
Linked Legacy parts
PP25445, a two-piece pillar post kit, and RD25445, a rear deck accent listed at 1.25". Check each listing for its finish.
Construction
The four 2" Legacy door pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel cut in the USA, set directly over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the Subaru.
Four pieces
The record doesn't map pieces to doors. Use the photos and label each one.
Prep
Wash and dry the lower doors. Touch up chips. Wipe the bottom three inches with isopropyl alcohol, getting into the edge.
Fitting
Rest each piece on the door bottom with its liner on, crease placed as in the photos. Close the door gently to check the ends. Peel and press a few inches at a time.
Sides
Check the first Legacy strips against your marks before fitting the rest.
Supplies
Legacy supplies: soap, touch-up paint, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape, a ruler.
Afterward
A warm, dry day for the job, about a day before washing, then non-abrasive polish only.
What a two-inch strip looks like
Two inches is modest: enough to show a clear line of polished steel along the bottom of each door, without covering much of the paint. Stick a two-inch strip of painter's tape along one door and step back before you decide; it's a free preview of the finished look.
Getting the crease right
A piece with a crease has a right way up. Before peeling anything, hold each one in place and press lightly to see whether it follows the door surface the way the photos show. If it rocks or stands off, try the other orientation; if neither works, stop and call 877-752-3811 instead of forcing it.
Before ordering
Confirm your Legacy is the 4-door sedan from 2005 through 2009, and check the lower door edges for rust or repaired areas. Two inches of steel sits right on that surface, so it needs to be sound.
Second press
An hour after you finish, go over each piece once more with a soft cloth and firm pressure, especially at the ends.
Cold weather
If the car lives outdoors, wait for a mild afternoon or warm it in a garage first.

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.
