Product Description
Honda Pilot 2016-2022 Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ16260, 6 Pieces, 1.5" Wide
WQ16260 is a six-piece polished stainless steel Wheel Well Accent Trim for the 2016-2022 Honda Pilot 4-door SUV. The pieces are 1.5" wide; the listing says "1.5" wide" and describes the set as "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging".
Fitment
The Pilot SUV, 2016-2022, is the only vehicle listed. Confirm your model year falls inside that span. If your arches don't match what the photos show, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Six pieces, four openings
This is a six-piece set, not four. The record doesn't say how the six divide across the Pilot's wheel openings, so don't assume one piece per arch. Lay all six out against the photos before any prep, and mark on each liner where it sits. If the photos leave any piece unplaced, phone 877-752-3811 with the SKU and UPC before fitting.
Material
QAA makes the set in the USA from high-quality polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, fixed over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Each piece carries black rubber gasket edging along the opening side.
Getting the SUV ready
At 1.5", these pieces cover a wider band of paint than a narrow accent, so the clean area needs to be wider too. Wash each opening and a hand-width around it, dry it off, and leave the arch lips to drain. Look over the full 1.5" band for old residue, wax build-up or a damaged edge. Work through it with wax-and-grease remover, then follow with isopropyl alcohol strip by strip, just ahead of each piece.
Setting six pieces
Where two pieces share one opening, the join matters as much as the curve. Hold both of them up together with their liners on, taping the outer ends, and check how they meet against the photos. Bond the first one from the end furthest from the join, working toward it; then line up the second against it and work away from the join. On a single-piece opening, start at either end and work along with steady pressure, peeling a short length of backing at a time.
Pilot group
Window trim comes as pillar sets PP16260 (4, "Includes top crease"), PP16261 (6), PP16262 (8) and PP16263 (10, "Includes Front Pillar behind the mirror"). TH16260 is a four-piece lower kit at 1.25". There's also a 0.75" rear deck accent, a 0.75" license bar, a license plate bezel that "Includes access for rear backup camera", a gas door cover and a two-piece trunk hatch accent.
Aftercare
Wait a day before the first wash. Use mild soap and a soft cloth from then on, and don't aim a pressure washer at the gasket. If any of the six won't sit as the photos show, leave the backing on and phone 877-752-3811.
When the box arrives, count six pieces, not four, and check every gasket edge for shipping damage.

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.
