Product Description
Cadillac CTS Coupe 2011-2014 Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ50254, 6 Pieces, 0.87" Wide
WQ50254 is a six-piece polished stainless steel Wheel Well Accent Trim for the Cadillac CTS Coupe, 2-door, model years 2011-2014. The pieces are 0.87" wide, and the listing describes them as "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging".
Coupe only
The title and the fitment line read Cadillac CTS Coupe 2011-2014, and the row is tagged 2-door. No other CTS body is on this record. If yours isn't the coupe, call 877-752-3811.
Six pieces at 0.87"
Each piece is 0.87" wide with black rubber gasket edging. The record doesn't list how the six are placed around the coupe's four openings, so sort them from the photos and label each liner.
Material
For the 2011-2014 CTS Coupe, six 0.87" arch strips of USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel go on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Cadillac coupe.
Coupe group
TH50254 is a four-piece On the rocker kit at 2.25" that installs below the door, and MI50254 is a six-piece molding insert kit at 0.75". Fit those before the arches if you're using them. LB50254 is a two-piece license bar extension trim; PP50254 is a pair of pillar posts. A gas door cover and a license plate bezel complete the group.
Before ordering
Confirm the car is the 2-door CTS Coupe and the year is 2011-2014.
Paint preparation
Work slowly and in the shade. Hand-wash each opening, rinse, pat dry, and leave the lip to drain. Hold a lamp low and look along the 0.87" band: wax film, adhesive left by anything removed and any chipped edge will all show. Clear them. Then wax-and-grease remover; then, last of all and only when the piece is ready, isopropyl alcohol.
Fitting the coupe set
Choose a rear opening to begin. Offer up its pieces on their backings with tape at the ends and check the gasket and the joins against the photos. Fix the first piece from its outer end, pulling the liner away in short lengths and pressing firmly as you go; set its neighbour from the join outward. Repeat on the other rear opening, then the fronts, comparing each pair.
Arrival and care
Count six pieces on arrival. After fitting, wait a day before washing; then mild soap and a soft cloth, without pressure-washer spray on the gasket. Questions: 877-752-3811.
Coupe-specific checks
Use the WQ50254 photos as your guide, not photos of any other CTS body, since this set lists only the coupe. Sort the six 0.87" pieces into front and rear groups on a towel, pencil each position on its liner, and do the same for TH50254 if it is in the order, since it goes on first. If any wheel well piece won't match a spot in the photos, phone 877-752-3811 with the SKU and the UPC before exposing adhesive.
CTS Coupe owners can order the 0.87-inch set as WQ50254 (UPC 691821608669) and call 877-752-3811.

Installation tips: Wheel Well Accent Trim
- Unpack all 6 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.
