Product Description
Cadillac CT6 2016-2020 Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ56230, 0.875" Wide, Cut to Fit with TH56230
WQ56230 is a four-piece polished stainless steel Wheel Well Accent Trim for the 2016-2020 Cadillac CT6 4-door sedan. The listing reads "0.875" Width, cut to fit with the Rocker kit TH56230 sold separately", and describes the set as "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging".
Made for TH56230
The note names the kit: TH56230, eight pieces, a Lower Kit at 3.125-3.875", spanning from the bottom of the door up. The lower ends of these four pieces are cut to meet it, so order TH56230 with this set and fit it first.
Four or six pieces?
The CT6 has a second set, WQ56231: six pieces at the same 0.875", "Cut Full Length, rear trim pieces are segmented into two". If you aren't fitting TH56230, WQ56231 is the full-length option.
Material
Built for the 2016-2020 CT6, these four 0.875" arch accents are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless from a USA shop, held on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the Cadillac.
Other CT6 parts
Pillar sets PP56230 (4) and PP56231 (6), a gas door cover and a rear window trim, RW56230, described as "Parallel span to the top edge".
Before ordering
Confirm a 2016-2020 CT6 sedan, and put TH56230 in the same order.
TH56230 first, then the arches
Fit the eight rocker pieces and let them settle. Then clean each arch: rinse, shampoo, rinse, dry and drain. Under a lamp, check each band and especially the lower ends that will sit beside the new rocker trim for wax, residue and chips, and clear them. Wax-and-grease remover goes across the band, and isopropyl alcohol on each piece just before it's bonded.
Fitting the cut ends
Hold each piece on its liner with painter's tape and compare it with the photos at two points: along the gasket line and where the cut end meets TH56230. Bond from the upper end down, short lengths at a time, so the cut end is placed last and lines up with the rocker trim. If it won't line up as the photos show, stop and call 877-752-3811.
Arrival and care
Count four pieces and inspect each cut end on arrival. After fitting, a day before washing; then mild soap and a soft cloth, with no pressure-washer spray on the gasket.
Checking the TH56230 fit first
Before you open the wheel well pieces, make sure the eight TH56230 pieces are fully pressed at their ends near each arch, since the cut ends of WQ56230 line up against them. Lay all four arch pieces by corner next to the photos, cut ends toward the rocker side. If the rocker kit isn't on yet, or you're unsure which way a cut end faces, keep every liner on and call 877-752-3811 with SKU WQ56230 and UPC 652012475095.
Keep the TH56230 receipt with this one, as both SKUs are needed if you call.

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.
