Product Description
Ford Fusion 2013-2018 Sedan Rear Bumper Accent, Polished Stainless (RB53390)
RB53390 is the rear bumper accent QAA catalogs for the later Ford Fusion 4-door sedan, model years 2013 through 2018. It is a single strip of 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA, and it installs with 3M tape.
Earlier or later Fusion?
QAA lists two Fusion rear bumper accents, and they are not interchangeable listings. This one covers 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018. A different part covers the earlier sedan. If you bought your car used and are unsure of the year, the door jamb label or your registration will settle it in seconds.
Paired pieces for the back of the car
Two other QAA items are linked to this sedan, and both belong at the rear:
- RD53390, a rear deck accent
- LP53390, a license plate bezel
The catalog does not give a width for the deck accent or for this bumper strip, so the photos on each listing are the best way to see how they relate in size.
A simple three-piece rear
Put the deck accent on the trunk lid, frame the plate with the bezel, and set this strip on the bumper. Three items, and the whole back of the sedan ties together; check each listing for its finish. Since each is one piece, the work is mostly measuring and prep.
What it is
It is a decorative strip that bonds to the Fusion's rear bumper cover, giving a bright line and leaving the bumper as it is.
Construction
26-gauge 304 stainless steel. The mirror finish is polished into the steel rather than plated on top, which means there is no coating to flake or bubble.
Mounting
The accent goes over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Ford.
Cleaning before you stick
Tape needs bare, clean paint. Wash the bumper with car soap, rinse, and dry it. Then wipe the mounting area with a residue-free cleaner and let it flash off. If the car was recently waxed or sealed, do a second wipe. Fix any chips in the area first, since tape over a chip can lift at that spot.
Lining it up
With the liner still on, set the strip where it will go and compare it with the product photos. Measure from each end to the nearest bumper corner. When both measurements match, mark the top edge with masking tape. If the deck accent is already installed, sight down from it to double-check that the bumper strip is centered.
Final press
On a dry, mild day, peel the liner, line up with your tape marks, and press firmly from the center out to each end. Run your hand along the full length once more. Skip washing for a few days. The Installation tab has full steps.
Care
Hand wash with mild soap and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid scouring pads and harsh compounds.

Installation tips: Rear Bumper Trim 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.
