Product Description
Stainless License Bar for the 2013-2015 Toyota RAV4 (LB13180)
LB13180 is a short, specific listing. It fits one vehicle, the Toyota RAV4 4-door SUV, and only three model years of it: 2013, 2014 and 2015. That narrow window is the first thing to check, because a RAV4 just outside that range is not covered by this part number, and the catalog gives no cross-reference for other years. Check the Rav4's model year before going further. If it reads 2013 through 2015, read on.
The part itself is a one-piece license bar, the catalog's term for an accent strip that sits above the rear plate. It is cut from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish, and made in the USA. It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and goes on directly over the existing surface of the vehicle, so there is no drilling and no hardware. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Gaps in the data
This sheet lists no width and says nothing about cutouts, lock or key access, or a camera opening. Some of QAA's license bars carry those notes; this one does not, and we won't fill them in with guesses. The product photos are your guide to the shape and where it sits. If your RAV4 has an emblem, a sensor or anything else in that area that the photos don't show, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with the part number LB13180 before you order, and we'll check it against the part.
Putting it on
Prep is most of the work. Wash the spot above the plate, let it dry, then wipe it with rubbing alcohol to lift wax and road film. Warm weather helps the tape grab, and the Installation tab has the temperature notes. Before you peel anything, hold the bar in position and judge it from behind the vehicle at standing height, where everyone else will see it. Mark both ends with small pieces of painter's tape. Then peel the liner, set the bar against your marks, and press hard along the whole length. Pull off the marks, press once more, and close the liftgate gently for the first day.
Other RAV4 parts on the same sheet
Only three other parts are cross-listed here for this RAV4. LP13180 is a one-piece license plate bezel, which frames the plate itself rather than sitting above it. RD13180 is a one-piece rear deck accent at 1.875", cataloged for this same SUV; the photos show where it goes on the liftgate area. SG13180 is a four-piece front grille accent noted as an insert package. Each has its own photos, so check every listing for its finish.
If you bought your RAV4 used, the model year in your records is the number that counts, not what a seller remembered. A quick check now saves a return later.
The Fitment tab repeats the vehicle and years, and the Specs tab holds the UPC.

Installation tips: License Plate Bar Accent
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
