Product Description
Kia Forte 2010-2013 Sedan Stainless Window Trim Package WP10811, Upper Trim Only, 4 Pieces
WP10811 is a four-piece polished stainless steel Window Trim Package for the 2010-2013 Kia Forte 4-door sedan. The listing spells out the contents: "Includes Upper Trim only, NO Pillar Posts, No Window Sills".
Only the upper trim
The four pieces cover the upper window trim. There are no pillar posts or sills in the box. If you want the pillar posts too, the record links WP10810, a ten-piece package with upper trim and pillar posts, and separate pillar post sets PP10810 (4 pieces) and PP10811 (6 pieces). The record doesn't say whether the separate sets are made to pair with this package, so ask us at 877-752-3811 before combining them. No sill set is linked for this Forte.
Construction
The four Forte upper pieces are USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says it will hold for a lifetime without harming the 2010-2013 Kia.
Placing four pieces
The record doesn't say where each piece goes. Compare them with the photos when the box arrives and match each to its door. Write the position on each liner before cleaning.
Getting ready
The bond depends on a clean surface. Soap and water first, then a full dry. After that, a wax-and-grease remover goes over the strip of trim where each piece will sit, and an isopropyl alcohol wipe follows immediately before that piece is applied. Protect the window rubber from the cleaners with a folded cloth.
Lining each piece up
The eye goes straight to the top edge of a window, so any kink shows. For each piece, hold it against the trim with the liner still attached and look along it from the front of the car and from the back. When it runs true, put a small tab of painter's tape at each end as a target. Have a second person support the far end while you check, and swing the door through its range to make sure nothing rubs.
Applying
- Free an inch or two of liner at the front end.
- Touch that end down on its tab.
- Draw the liner out gradually, smoothing the piece down behind it.
- Run a firm thumb along the whole length to finish.
Weather, cleaning and time
Pick a dry, temperate day and keep the car out of strong sun while you work. It shouldn't be washed for a day afterward. Day to day, plain soapy water and a microfiber cloth keep the polish bright, with a stainless cleaner that isn't abrasive for smudges. Two hours or so covers the whole set.
Ordering checks
It's for a Forte sedan built 2010 to 2013, and it suits you if upper trim on its own is the look you're after. On delivery, check there are four pieces and keep them lying flat. The day after fitting, run a finger along the edges and press any lifted spot back down. Should a piece refuse to follow the window the way the photos show, leave its backing in place and ring us.

Installation tips: Window Trim Package
- 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.
- 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.
