Product Description
Ford F-150 2018-2020 Two-Piece Tailgate Accent, No Eco Logo Cut Out, 8-Inch Polished Stainless (RT58311)
RT58311 is a two-piece polished stainless tailgate accent for the 2018-2020 Ford F-150, 2-door and 4-door pickups, listed at 8 inches. Its note reads "No Eco logo cut out," which is what sets it apart from its linked twin.
When to pick this one
RT58310 is the same two-piece, 8-inch format but made with the NEW Eco logo cut out. Pick RT58311 if your tailgate doesn't have the feature that opening is cut for, or if you'd rather the steel run solid across that area. The data doesn't name what the Eco opening matches, so if you're unsure which applies to your truck, send a photo of your tailgate to Quality Automotive Trims and call 877-752-3811.
The smaller options
Three 4-inch accents are also linked for these trucks: RT58308, one piece with the NEW Eco cutout; TP58308, two pieces with an F150 cutout; and TP58399, one solid piece with no cutout. Comparing their photos with this one shows how much of the gate each covers.
Dimensions
Two pieces, 8 inches per the record. Whether 8 inches is the combined height or each piece's own, the data doesn't say; the photos show the arrangement, and we can measure for you by phone.
Made from
26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA. The pieces mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and install over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
No opening to aim for
Without a logo cutout, you place the pieces by measurement. Measure from the tailgate edges to place the pieces where the photos show them, and use the gate's top edge or a body line as your level reference. Mark each piece's outline in painter's tape while the liners are still on.
Pressing them on
Install the first piece from one end to the other with steady pressure, check the gap to your marks for the second, then lay it the same way. Rub along every edge firmly. A dry, mild day gives the best bond; the Installation tab has more.
Prep a big footprint
Wash and dry, repair any damaged paint, then wipe the whole area with a residue-free cleaner until a fresh cloth shows nothing. No wax beforehand.
Also linked
SGR58308 letter inserts (its note mentions another brand's lettering; call us), WZ58308 fender moldings for trucks with no factory flares, and WQ58308 wheel well accents that need the mud flaps removed and reinstalled. Check each listing for its finish.
Years and care
Covered: 2018 to 2020. Wait a few days before washing, then mild soap and a soft cloth.
Why solid stainless
A tailgate gets bumped by cargo and boots. Polished 304 is steel through and through, so wear doesn't expose a different metal underneath, and a light polish restores the mirror finish.
What it is
Decorative trim over the paint. The tailgate works as before.

Installation tips: Tailgate Accent Trim
- Unpack all 2 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.
