Product Description
Hyundai Elantra 2017-2018 Rear Bumper Trim, Mirror Stainless Accent (RB17340)
RB17340 is a one-piece rear bumper accent for the Hyundai Elantra 4-door sedan from 2017 to 2018. It is cut from 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror, made in the USA, and fastened with 3M tape over the existing bumper surface.
Two model years
The catalog lists only 2017 and 2018 for this accent, on the 4-door sedan. If your Elantra is from another year or is a different body, this is not the record for it. Your registration settles it in seconds.
Its one companion
Only one other QAA kit is linked to this Elantra: RD17340, a one-piece rear deck accent with a listed width of 1.5 inches. Both pieces live on the back of the car, so they make a natural pair. Fit both and the rear of the sedan carries two horizontal lines; check the deck accent's listing for its finish.
What this part is
A rear bumper accent is decorative trim that adheres to the bumper cover. It puts a polished strip on the bumper and leaves the bumper as it was.
Construction
26-gauge 304 stainless, mirror finish, made in the USA. The shine is the metal, not plating, so it does not flake.
Mounting
The Elantra bumper trim goes over the existing surface of the sedan with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without causing harm to the Hyundai.
Preparing the rear bumper
Start with a thorough wash and dry. Then clean the mounting area with a wax-free wipe so nothing sits between the tape and the paint. Look for chips where the strip will go and touch them up first.
Fitting it
Wait for a dry day with mild temperatures. Dry-fit the strip with the liner on, comparing its position with the product photos. Take a measurement from each end to the bumper edges so it sits centered, then lay a line of masking tape to mark it. Peel, place, and press firmly from the middle to the ends. Leave the car unwashed for a few days. The Installation tab has every step.
Order of work with the deck accent
If you are installing RD17340 as well, fit the rear deck accent first. With it in place, you can stand behind the car and center the bumper strip visually beneath it, so the two read as a matched set.
Care
Mild soap, water, and a soft towel. No scouring pads or gritty polish on the mirror finish.
Why stainless at the back
The rear of a sedan sees road spray and exhaust. A solid stainless strip with no plated layer keeps its face with simple washing.
Before you order
Check the model year and body style on your registration and look at the product photos side by side with your bumper. If anything looks different from your car, call before ordering rather than after.

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.
