Product Description
Toyota Highlander 2008-2013 Liftgate Accent, 1.875 Inches of Polished Stainless (RD28110)
RD28110 is a single wide strip for the liftgate of the Toyota Highlander 4-door SUV, model years 2008 through 2013. QAA lists it at 1.875 inches across. It is mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, with 3M tape.
Six model years
2008 to 2013. A later Highlander has its own liftgate accent from QAA, so check the year on your registration first.
Lettering for the hatch
What sets this Highlander's lineup apart is the lettering:
- SGR28110, ten-piece "HIGHLANDER" letter inserts for the rear hatch, 1.563 inches tall
- SGR28111, a two-piece "HIGHLANDER" logo decal set, all one piece, set of two, for the rear hatch emblem
Both go on the same gate as this accent, so look at the photos of each together to plan spacing.
Two license bars
LB28110 and LB28111 both sit above the plate with a "HIGHLANDER" logo cut out. LB28111 includes smart key access. If your Highlander has a smart key, that is the difference to check.
Rest of the lineup
LP28110 is the license plate bezel and GC28110 the gas door cover. MI28110 is a four-piece body molding insert, 1 inch wide. For the windows, WP28110 is the full 14-piece package, WP28111 is ten pieces with upper trim and pillar posts but no sills, and WS28110 is a four-piece sill set. PP28110 and PP28111 are four- and six-piece pillar kits.
Material and attachment
The 1.875" Highlander strip is 26-gauge 304 stainless with a mirror polish and no plating. It goes over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Toyota.
Wide strip, full clean
Close to two inches of tape needs the whole band of paint clean. Wash and dry the gate, then wipe edge to edge with a residue-free cleaner. On an SUV of this age, fix chips and weak clearcoat first.
Spacing with the lettering
If you plan to fit letter inserts or a logo decal, decide on their spacing before this strip goes on. Dry-fit the accent with the liner on, mark it with painter's tape, and step back to judge how it sits with the lettering photos in mind. Then peel and press from the center outward on a dry, mild day.
Care
Wait a few days to wash. Mild soap and a soft cloth, and dry the gate after rinsing. Avoid scrubbing pads.
Choosing window trim
The 14-piece full package includes sills; the ten-piece package does not, and the sill set can be bought on its own later. If you already own a pillar kit, call to see which package makes sense without doubling up.
Why stainless
Polished 304 stainless shines without a coating. The license bars, bezel, and window trim for this Highlander share the material, so the gate will look consistent with the rest of the car.
Before ordering
Confirm the year range, decide on lettering, and check whether your Highlander uses a smart key so you pick the right license bar.

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.
