Product Description
Honda Accord 2008-2012 Sedan Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ28281, 4 Pieces
For the 2008-2012 Honda Accord 4-door sedan, WQ28281 is a four-piece Wheel Well Accent Trim set in polished stainless steel. QAA lists it "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging", and no width appears in the record.
Sedan only
This set lists the 4-door sedan. The Accord group includes two parts listed for the 2-door coupe, DH28251 and TH28251, but the wheel well set isn't listed for the coupe. Coupe owners should call 877-752-3811.
Four pieces
Each piece is polished stainless with black rubber gasket edging. Without a listed width or corner labels, use the photos to judge the look and the placement.
Material
The four Accord wheel arch pieces are USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, held over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the paint on the Honda sedan.
Sedan parts in the group
TH28281 is a two-piece On the rocker strip at 1.25" that installs below the door. DH28281 is an eight-piece door handle cover kit that "Does not include passenger key access". There's also a two-piece gas door cover, a rear bumper accent and a 2.5" rear deck accent. If you're fitting TH28281, do it before the arches.
Arch prep on the Accord
Start the day before if you can: wash the car, paying attention to the four openings, and let it dry overnight under cover. On fitting day, examine the band each piece will cover. Anything on that band apart from sound paint, whether stuck-on residue, polish or a chipped edge, gets removed or fixed now. Wax-and-grease remover across each band; isopropyl alcohol on a fresh cloth, once per piece, immediately before it goes on.
Fitting the set
Take the first piece and line it up on its opening without removing the backing. Two strips of painter's tape hold it. Check from the front and the side that the gasket lies tight to the opening along its length and that the ends match the photos. Then lift the backing at one end, press that end down hard, and work across in short peels. Do the next opening, comparing as you go.
Arrival and care
When the box comes, count four pieces and inspect every gasket edge. Once fitted, skip washing for a day; then mild soap, a soft cloth and no pressure-washer spray on the gasket. Any doubt, phone 877-752-3811 before bonding.
Ordering checks for the Accord
Confirm the year is between 2008 and 2012 and the car is the 4-door sedan. With no width listed for WQ28281, study the photos or ask 877-752-3811 for a measurement if the amount of stainless matters to you. If you are buying the DH28281 handle covers, note they don't include passenger key access. Lay the four wheel well pieces out by corner before cleaning starts.

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.
