Product Description
Buick Lucerne 2006-2011 Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ46552, 0.875" Wide, Cut to Fit with Rocker Kit
WQ46552 is the wider cut-to-fit wheel well set for the 2006-2011 Buick Lucerne 4-door sedan: four polished stainless steel pieces, listed as "0.875" Width, cut to fit with Rocker kit sold separately" and "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging".
Why choose WQ46552
Two things set this one apart: it's the 0.875" width, and it's cut to work alongside a rocker kit. It also has the black rubber gasket edging. The narrow 0.5" sets (WQ46550 cut, WQ46551 Full Length) are listed without gasket edging; WQ46553 is the 0.875" Full Length set.
Confirm the rocker kit
The cut note doesn't name the kit. TH46551, eight pieces at 2-2.5625" spanning from the bottom of the door up, is the only rocker kit linked for this Lucerne. Before buying, check with 877-752-3811 that it's the one these pieces are cut to meet.
Material
The four 0.875" Lucerne pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel from a USA shop, with black rubber gasket edging on the opening side, and they sit over the existing surface on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Buick.
Sequence on the car
- Fit the rocker kit and let it settle.
- Wash and dry all four openings.
- Inspect each band and clear residue, wax and loose paint.
- Wipe with wax-and-grease remover.
- Dry-fit each wheel well piece against its opening and the rocker trim.
- Wipe with isopropyl alcohol and bond.
Dry-fitting the cut ends
For each piece, hold it in place with the liner on and painter's tape at the ends. The gasket should ride along the opening; the cut end should sit beside the rocker trim the way the photos show. If either doesn't look right, stop there and phone 877-752-3811 rather than forcing the piece or trimming it.
Bonding
Once both checks pass, begin peeling at the end away from the rocker trim. Press each freed length down firmly with your thumb, following the curve, and finish at the cut end so its position is the last thing fixed. Then another opening.

Care
Check that four pieces arrived. After fitting, let a day pass before washing, use mild soap and a soft cloth, and keep pressure-washer spray away from the gasket. If anything about the Lucerne kit is unclear, phone 877-752-3811.
Before ordering
Three questions decide the Lucerne set. Is the car a 2006-2011 4-door sedan? Do you want the 0.875" width with gasket edging rather than the bare-edged 0.5"? And will a rocker kit go on? If the answers are yes, yes and yes, WQ46552 is the listed match, subject to confirming the kit with 877-752-3811. On arrival, check each cut end is clean and each gasket edge is undamaged, and keep the liners on until the rocker trim is fitted.

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.
