Product Description
2007-2010 Hyundai Elantra Trunk Accent with Top Crease, 1.125 Inches (RD27340)
RD27340 is a one-piece rear deck accent for the Hyundai Elantra 4-door sedan, model years 2007 through 2010. It is 1.125 inches wide, the listing notes a top crease, and it is polished 304 stainless steel made in the USA, with 3M tape.
About the top crease
"With top crease" is the detail that sets this strip apart. The catalog does not describe the shape beyond that phrase, so the photos are where to see how the upper edge is formed and how it sits on the lid.
Four model years
2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010, sedan body. QAA lists a separate accent for a later Elantra, so confirm your year on the registration or the label inside the door jamb.
Crease on the rocker too
TH27340, a two-piece rocker on the rocker, is listed with a trim crease as well. It is 1.25 inches wide and installs below the door. If you like the shaped look of this trunk strip, that rocker continues it along the sides.
Window packages

- WP27341, 10 pieces: upper trim and window sills, no pillar posts

Material
The Elantra accent is 26-gauge 304 stainless, mirror polished, with no plating to peel.
Mounting
The 1.125" Elantra strip, with its top crease, goes on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Hyundai.
Prep
Wash, dry, and wipe the trunk area with a residue-free cleaner. Older paint can hold wax in its pores, so wipe twice. Repair chips first.
Matching the crease
Dry-fit with the liner on and pay close attention to how the top crease lines up in the photos. Measure each end to the lid edges and mark with painter's tape. On a dry, mild day, peel and press from the center outward, running a finger along the crease.
Care
Wait a few days before washing. Mild soap and a soft cloth. Skip compounds, which can dull the crease's edge, and dry the lid after rinsing.
Choosing window trim
The full 16-piece package includes pillar posts. The 10-piece package leaves them out, which suits owners who already have one of the pillar kits or prefer the posts left plain.
Why stainless
This strip has no plated top layer to wear; check each linked Elantra listing for its own finish before you buy it.
Widths together
The trunk strip is 1.125 inches and the rocker and body molding insert are both 1.25. That small difference is hard to see from a distance, so the pieces read as a matched set.

Installation tips: Rear Deck 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.
