Product Description
Honda Pilot 2009-2015 Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ29260, 4 Pieces
Owners of a 2009-2015 Honda Pilot 4-door SUV can outline its wheel openings with WQ29260, a set of four polished stainless steel Wheel Well Accent Trim pieces. In QAA's words the set comes "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging"; its width is not recorded.
Fitment
Pilot SUV, 2009-2015. That's the only line. The record doesn't split it by trim level. If the openings on your Pilot look different from the photos, phone 877-752-3811 before you order.
Four pieces
Four polished stainless pieces, each with black rubber gasket edging on the side that meets the opening. The record has no width and no corner labels; the photos show both.
Material
On the 2009-2015 Pilot, four arch strips of USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel are pressed onto the existing wheel openings using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime and the Honda SUV stays undamaged.
Before ordering
Confirm the year is 2009-2015. With no width given, look carefully at the photos to see how much stainless will show, or ask 877-752-3811 for a measurement. No rocker kit is linked for this Pilot; the lower-body part in the group is MI29260, a four-piece body molding insert kit at 0.75". If you're fitting the inserts too, do them first.
Pilot group
Besides the molding inserts, the record links pillar sets PP29260 (4) and PP29261 (6), a four-piece window sill set, a gas door cover and a license plate bezel.
Making the arches ready
The Pilot is tall, so bring a step stool and a torch. Start with the wash: shampoo each opening, rinse well and dry, then let water clear from the lip. Inspect the band where the stainless will sit, a short length at a time, looking for stuck-on residue, wax film and loose or chipped paint. Clear or repair each. Then wipe the band with wax-and-grease remover. Hold the isopropyl alcohol back until the piece for that band is in your hand.
Putting the set on
Begin at whichever opening you prefer. Present the piece on its liner and anchor both ends with painter's tape. Stand back to see that the curve looks right, then lean in to check that the gasket touches the opening evenly. Peel the first section of liner at one end, set it with firm pressure, and keep going around the arch in short steps. Fit the other front opening next and compare before moving to the rear.
Arrival and care
Count four pieces and look over each gasket edge when the box arrives, leaving the liners on. After fitting, leave the SUV unwashed for a day. Then use mild soap and a soft cloth, and keep pressure-washer spray off the gasket. Questions: 877-752-3811.
Have a step stool, painter's tape, both cleaners and clean microfibre cloths ready before the first Pilot liner moves.
Keep each Pilot liner on until dry-fitting.

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.
