What the record says, and doesn't
The record gives one fitment row (the sedan, 1988-1990), one width and one piece count. It has no linked parts and no length note. That's enough to describe the kit, but not to answer every question about your car, so call 877-752-3811 if anything here doesn't match what you see.
Measuring a 9" space
A Full Kit fills the gap between the molding and the door bottom. With nine inches of height, a small difference in your car's measurement shows, so take it carefully:
- Use a rigid ruler held square to the door
- Read from the Legend molding's lower edge to the door bottom
- Check front and rear of each of the four doors
- Write the readings down before you call
Eight pieces
The record doesn't list how they divide between doors and any panels beyond them. Lay them out on a towel, compare with the photos, and label each liner.
Steel and tape
Acura's 1988-1990 Legend sedan gets eight 9" pieces that QAA forms in the USA out of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, set from molding to door bottom with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime with no harm to the car.
Paint under a wide piece
Nine inches of paint sits under each piece, so clean the whole band. Wash and rinse, remove wax and polish with a wax-and-grease remover, repair chips or rust and let it cure, then wipe with isopropyl alcohol right before fitting.
The molding
Each piece's top edge meets the molding. Make sure it's straight and secure on every door, and repair it first if not.
Dry fit and bond
Hold each piece with painter's tape between the molding and the door bottom. Open every door. When the layout is right, peel the liner a section at a time and press across the full height, then go over the piece with firm pressure.
Gaps between Legend pieces
Hold the same spacing on every Legend piece.
Pace
Do one door, step back and look, then continue. Adjusting is easy before the liner comes off.
Conditions
Mild and dry, in shade, with the panels warm. No washing for a day afterward.
Ordering
Give us the year and your readings. Keep the box until the job is done.
If one door reads differently
If a reading on one door stands apart from the others, check whether that door or its molding has been replaced. Send us each door's figures separately rather than an average.
Tools
A rigid ruler, painter's tape, masking tape, microfiber cloths, wax-and-grease remover and isopropyl alcohol cover the whole job.
Peel nothing until all eight Legend pieces have been taped up dry and pass a look from the front corner.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 8 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.
