Product Description
Cadillac CTS 2014-2019 Sedan Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ54250, Cut to Fit with TH54250 or TH54252, 6 Pieces
WQ54250 is a six-piece polished stainless steel Wheel Well Accent Trim for the 2014-2019 Cadillac CTS 4-door sedan. Its note reads "Cut to fit with the Lower TH54250 or Full TH54252 Rocker kits sold separately", and the listing describes the set as "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging". No width is listed.
Two named rocker kits
This note names the kits it works with:
- TH54250: eight pieces, lower kit, 2.25-3.5", spanning from the bottom of the door up.
- TH54252: ten pieces, On the rocker & Lower Kit, 5.25", installs below the door and spans from the bottom of the door up.
Pick one of the two and fit it before the arches. Two other rocker kits are in the group, TH54251 (four pieces On the rocker, 1.5-2.125") and TH54253 (two pieces On the rocker, 1.25"); the note doesn't list those, so ask 877-752-3811 before pairing either with this set.
Six pieces
Each has black rubber gasket edging. The record doesn't say how they're arranged; use the photos and label every liner.
Material
QAA forms the CTS arch set in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, and it adheres over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the sedan.
Other CTS parts
Four pillar sets: PP54250 (4) and PP54251 (6), plus PP54444 (4) and PP54445 (6), both "LONG VERSION - please refer to the accompanying image". A 1" body side molding accent, a license bar extension pair, a license plate bezel, a rear bumper accent, a "Spoiler Accent" (RT54250) and a gas door cover.
Before ordering
Confirm a 2014-2019 CTS sedan and choose TH54250 or TH54252.
Prep after the rocker kit
With your chosen kit fitted, clean each arch: wash, rinse, dry, drain. Look over the band, and particularly the lower ends where the cut pieces meet the rocker trim, for residue, wax or chips. Wipe with wax-and-grease remover, then isopropyl alcohol just before bonding.
Fitting
Hold each opening's pieces up on their liners with tape tabs. Compare the gasket line, any joins and the cut ends against the photos. Bond from the piece furthest from the rocker trim toward it, peeling short lengths and pressing as you go, so the cut end goes down last. If a cut end won't meet the rocker trim cleanly, stop and phone 877-752-3811.
Arrival and care
Check all six CTS pieces and each cut end when they arrive. After installation, a day of rest for the tape, then mild soap and a soft cloth; keep the gasket away from pressure-washer spray.
Choosing between the two kits
TH54250 covers 2.25-3.5" from the bottom of the door up; TH54252 includes an On the rocker section below the door for a 5.25" band. Compare both in the photos, choose the one you want with the arches, and if the CTS photos leave you unsure which pieces pair with which kit, call 877-752-3811 with SKU WQ54250 and UPC 691821733835.

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.
