Product Description
2012-2019 Toyota Prius C Rear Bumper Accent, One Mirror Stainless Strip (RB12705)
RB12705 is the rear bumper accent QAA catalogs for the Toyota Prius C 4-door hatchback. Its record spans 2012 through 2019, and the piece is mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, mounting with 3M tape.
Prius C, specifically
This listing is for the Prius C. The standard Prius and the Prius V have separate rear bumper accents in the catalog, and they are not interchangeable listings. Confirm the model on your registration.
Model years
2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019.
A big family of Prius C trim
QAA links more pillar options to this car than to most: PP12705, PP12706, PP12707, PP12708, and PP12709, ranging from four to twelve pieces. At the rear, the natural companions for this accent are:
- LB12705, a license bar above the plate
- LP12705, a license plate bezel
- RD12705, a rear deck accent
- GC12705, a gas door cover
The catalog also links TH12705 rocker trim and WS12705 window sills.
What it is
A strip of polished stainless that adheres to the rear bumper cover. Decorative only; the bumper is not touched.
Steel and finish
26 gauge, 304 stainless, mirror polish. The shine is solid metal, not plating.
Tape
The Prius C bumper trim is mounted over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says that tape will hold for a lifetime without causing harm to the Toyota.
Clean the spot
Wash the bumper, dry it, and wipe the mounting area with a wax-free cleaner. Make sure no protectant or dressing is left behind, and repair any chipped paint first.
Installation
Choose a dry, mild day. Hold the strip in place with the liner on and line it up with the photos. Since there is only one piece, measure from each end to the bumper edges and mark the line with masking tape. Peel, set, and press firmly from the center outward. Leave it a few days before washing. The Installation tab has more.
Care
Mild soap and a soft cloth. No scouring pads.
Small car, bright detail
On a hatchback, one polished line across the rear makes a noticeable difference, and it goes on in minutes.
Why stainless lasts at the back
The rear of a hatchback sees road spray, exhaust, and the hatch being opened and closed with loaded hands. A solid polished stainless strip has no coating to chip or wear thin, so its face stays the same with ordinary washing.
Order in one go
If you want the license bar or bezel too, buy them at the same time. One cleaning, one session, and the pieces can be aligned against each other as you go.

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.
