Product Description
Ford Mustang 2005-2009 Coupe & Convertible Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ45351, 4 Pieces, 0.75" Wide
For the 2005-2009 Ford Mustang Coupe and Convertible, WQ45351 is a four-piece Wheel Well Accent Trim set in polished stainless steel. Each of its pieces is 0.75" wide, and QAA's listing describes the set as "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging".
Fitment
Mustang Coupe and Convertible, 2005-2009. Both bodies are on the one line. Check your model year against that span before ordering, and call 877-752-3811 if the arches on your car don't look like the photos.
The set
Four 0.75" stainless pieces, each with black rubber gasket edging where it meets the wheel opening. The photos show which corner each one fits.
Material
The four Mustang arch strips are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel that QAA forms in the USA, and they are held over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the paint of the Ford.
Mustang group
This group is short. TH45351 is a six-piece lower kit at 3.5" that spans from the bottom of the door up; if you want it, fit it before the arches. HT45351 is a hood accent at 1-1.5". DH45351 is a four-piece door handle cover kit, and TL45351 is a pair of tail light bezels. No window trim is linked for this Mustang.
Before ordering
Confirm the year (2005-2009) and the body (Coupe or Convertible). If you're planning the TH45351 rocker kit too, ask 877-752-3811 whether the photos show it alongside this set, so you know how the two look together.
Getting the paint ready
Plan for an unhurried session in a dry garage. Clean one opening at a time: soap, rinse, towel, then a pause while the lip drains. Kneel level with the arch and study the 0.75" band in raking light. Any wax film, sticky residue or chipped edge needs attention before the tape can do its job. Wipe the band with wax-and-grease remover, then leave it until its piece is ready for the isopropyl alcohol.
Fitting the Mustang set
Write each corner on its liner after checking the photos. Hold the first piece in place with the backing still on and pin the ends with painter's tape. Follow the gasket with your eye from one end to the other; it should rest against the opening without gaps. Then peel a short length of backing at the rear end and press; continue forward in short peels, pressing straight after each. Fit the corner opposite before the remaining two, and compare.
Arrival and care
Count four pieces and check each gasket edge on arrival, with the liners on. After fitting, wait a day before washing; then mild soap and a soft cloth, with no pressure washer aimed at the gasket. Questions: 877-752-3811.
On a Convertible, the steps are exactly the same as on the Coupe; the one fitment line names both bodies for 2005-2009.

Installation tips: Wheel Well Accent Trim
- 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.
- Seat the black rubber gasket edging evenly along the wheel opening as you press the trim on.
- 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.
