Product Description
Ford Expedition 2008-2017 Roof Rack Trim, 6-Piece with End Caps, 2.187-Inch (RR55383)
RR55383 is the six-piece roof rack trim set for the Ford Expedition 4-door SUV, model years 2008 through 2017, and the record notes it includes end cap pieces. Each piece is listed at 2.187 inches wide, in 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA.
Standard Expedition, not the EL
The fitment says "NO EL." If your Expedition is the EL, this set isn't listed for it. Call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 to ask what fits yours.
Six pieces versus two
A second set is linked for the same SUV: RR55384, two pieces, also 2.187 inches, noted as including center pieces only. So the record offers a version with end caps and a version that's center pieces only. What it doesn't say is whether this six-piece set also includes the center pieces, or how the six divide between ends and middle. Compare the photos of both listings, and if it still isn't clear which you need, call before ordering.
A little over two inches
2.187 inches is about two and three-sixteenths. That's a broad polished band on the rack, visible from well down the street. For a preview, hold painter's tape of similar width against the rack in the photographed spots.
Mounting
Every piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and goes on over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
One more linked part
WS55383 is a four-piece window sill set at 1.125 inches, noted "With Keyless Entry Pad." Check that listing for its finish and fit.
Organizing six pieces
Lay all six out with liners on. Identify the end caps and match each piece to the photos. Label them so you can work side by side with confidence.
Rack prep
Wash and dry the rack. Wipe each footprint with a residue-free cleaner, changing cloths until nothing transfers. Rack surfaces on SUVs from these years can be weathered; correct any chalky or flaking areas first so the tape has a sound surface.
Fitting
Dry-fit each piece, mark the ends with painter's tape, and check that end caps sit where the photos show them. Peel a section of liner at a time and press firmly along the length. Check each Expedition piece from the ground before starting the next. Choose a dry, mild day. The Installation tab has the full steps.
Why end caps matter visually
The ends of a rack are where the eye lands first when you look at the side of an SUV. Trim that includes end caps finishes those points instead of stopping short of them.
Ladder work
Work from a sturdy ladder along the Expedition, and avoid leaning on the rack or roof.
Care
Wait a few days before washing, then mild soap and a soft cloth. The finish is solid polished 304 steel, so there's no plating to wear thin.
What it is
Decorative trim over the existing rack. It doesn't replace any factory part or change how the rack works.

Installation tips: Roof Rack Trim
- Unpack all 6 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.
