Product Description
2004-2013 Nissan Titan Extended Stainless Tailgate Handle Accent, 11.75", 4 Pieces (TGH24521)
TGH24521 is the extended version of QAA's tailgate handle accent for the 2004 through 2013 Nissan Titan: four polished stainless steel pieces at an 11.75" width. The note reads "11.75" Width, Extended," and the included line agrees: QAA's 4 piece stainless steel tailgate handle accent trim, 11.75" width, extended.
What "Extended" means
The standard version, TGH24520, is two pieces at the same width. This set doubles the count to four. The record doesn't say what the two further pieces cover. The photos are the best way to see the difference, and Quality Automotive Trims can explain it at 877-752-3811.

Which Titans
Nissan Titan, 4-door pickup: 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013.
Laying out four pieces
Before cleaning, match each piece to its position using the photos and number them on the liners with a marker. That keeps the order straight when you start peeling.
Cleaning the handle area
Hands leave oil here every day. Soapy water, a rinse, a full dry, then two passes with isopropyl alcohol on fresh cloths. Don't touch the cleaned surface afterward.
Fitting
Dry-fit all four with liners on. Then peel and press one at a time, starting with whichever piece the others line up against in the photos. Press firmly across every face.
After installing
Give the tape a few hours before using the handle, and a day before washing. Warm temperatures help the bond.
Living with it
Wipe fingerprints off with a soft cloth and mild soap. A non-abrasive metal polish restores the shine whenever the steel starts to look dull.
Standard or extended: how to choose
Look at how much of the handle area you'd like covered. The two-piece set is the simpler accent; this four-piece set covers more. If the photos don't settle it, call and describe what you have in mind, and we'll talk through which suits your Titan.
What you'll need
Soap, water, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a marker. No tools.
Checking your work
With four pieces, alignment between them is what the eye picks up. After the first two are on, step back several feet and check they line up with each other and sit level on the tailgate. Then fit the remaining two. If any piece is off, lift it within the first minute and reset it, while the tape is still forgiving.
Timing and weather
Choose a dry, mild day or work in a garage. Cold steel and cold paint slow the bond, so let the truck warm up first in cooler months.

Installation tips: Tailgate Handle 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.
- 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.
