Product Description
Toyota Avalon 2001-2004 Tapered Lower Kit, 2"-3.375", Eight Pieces (TH22125)
TH22125 is an eight-piece Lower Kit in polished stainless steel for the Toyota Avalon sedan, 2001 through 2004. Its width is a "2" - 3.375" tapered Width," and it "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width." The pieces start at the bottom edge and rise between two and three and three-eighths inches.
Lower Kit or the linked Upper Kit
This sheet links TH24124, an eight-piece Upper Kit 6.25" wide that spans from the bottom of the molding down. The two kits work from opposite reference edges: TH22125 from the door bottom up, TH24124 from the molding down. TH24124's numbering doesn't match this kit's, so confirm its fitment years on its own listing, and call 877-752-3811 if you're weighing the two.
An inch and three-eighths of taper
The width changes noticeably along each piece. The record doesn't say which end is wider or how the taper carries from one piece to the next. Use the photos, lay all eight out, and mark each one's position and direction.
Eight pieces on a sedan
The note doesn't say "On the doors only," and the record doesn't explain how the eight pieces are distributed. The photos show the layout.
Fitment
Toyota Avalon, 4-door sedan: 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004.
Material and tape
On the 2001-2004 Avalon, eight tapered strips of USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless rise from the door bottom on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the Toyota.
Prepping older paint
Inspect the lower few inches of the sedan closely. Repair chips and rust spots and let them cure; polish dull paint until it's firm. Wash, dry, and wipe from the bottom edge up past the four-inch mark with isopropyl alcohol.
Fitting the taper
Dry-fit each door's pieces with liners on, bottom edges at the door bottom. The tapered top edge should flow smoothly from piece to piece; if a joint shows a step, swap or turn a piece. Open the doors to check clearance. Then peel and press each piece across its full height.
Linked Avalon parts
PP22125 and PP22126, four- and six-piece pillar post kits. Check each listing for its finish.
Supplies
Car soap, polish, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a ruler. Nothing has to come off the car. Painter's tape marks help you hold each piece's position during the dry-fit.
Matching the sides
As each run goes on, measure where each joint falls from the front wheel opening, so the taper rises and falls in consistent places.
Conditions
A warm, dry day; about a day before washing. Keep out of deep puddles, and warm the car in a garage first if it's cold out.
Care
Rinse salt off the lower body and polish with a non-abrasive product. Dry the steel after washing.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower 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.
