Product Description
TH55297 GMC Yukon 2015-2020 "XL only" Upper Kit, 6.375" Polished Stainless, 4 Pieces
TH55297's title calls it a rocker panel trim for the 2015-2020 GMC Yukon XL, and the fitment line carries the two words that matter more than anything else on the page: "XL only." It's a four-piece polished stainless steel Upper Kit, 6.375" wide, for the 4-door. The fitment has a single row.
Start with the XL tag
The title and the fitment both limit this kit to the XL. If you aren't sure which Yukon you have, check your registration or the badge on your truck, and if there's still doubt, call 877-752-3811 before you order. Don't assume the regular Yukon takes the same pieces.
Where the steel sits
The note says the pieces span "from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width." So the top edge of each piece starts at the lower edge of the side molding, and the steel runs down 6.375" from there.
Check the space
Put a strip of painter's tape along the molding's bottom edge and a second strip 6.375" lower. The space between them gives you a good feel for the coverage, and it also shows whether anything on your Yukon, such as aftermarket steps or a repair, would get in the way.
Build
The four Yukon XL pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel produced in the USA. They attach below the molding over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the GMC.
Two linked listings
The record links LBP55295, a two-piece upper hatch cover described as "With Logo Cut Out; License Plate Bar Trim," and FB55297, a two-piece front bumper trim. Both are listed for the 4-door SUV. Their own pages carry their fit notes and finishes, so read those before buying either.
Sorting the four pieces
The record doesn't say which piece fits which door. Pair them by shape, match them to the product photos, and label each liner. Doing this before you start avoids swapping a front piece for a rear one.
Clean and dry
Wash below the molding, rinse, and let the panel dry completely. Wipe it with isopropyl alcohol right before the tape goes on so there's no wax film.
Dry fit, then commit
Hold each piece with painter's tape, check the top edge follows the molding, and swing each door to confirm clearance. When it looks right, peel a few inches of liner, press, and keep going in short sections. Finish with a firm pass along the full piece.
Good conditions
A mild, dry day in the shade is best. Very cold panels make the tape slow to grab, so let the truck warm up in a garage if it's chilly.
Care
Leave it a day before washing. Mild soap and a soft cloth are all the polished steel needs.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper 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.
