Product Description
2009-2014 Nissan Maxima Rear Deck Accent, 1.5-Inch Polished Stainless (RD29540)
RD29540 is a single trunk lid strip for the Nissan Maxima 4-door sedan from 2009 through 2014. It is 1.5 inches wide and cut from mirror-polished 304 stainless steel. QAA makes it in the USA and uses 3M tape.
Six Maxima years
2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014, sedan. QAA lists a different, wider trunk accent for an earlier Maxima, so the year matters here. The registration or the label in the door jamb will confirm it.
A clean set of companions
Five other parts are linked to this Maxima:
- LP29540, license plate bezel
- GC29540, gas door cover
- PP29540, four-piece pillar kit
- PP29541, six-piece pillar kit
- WQ29540, four-piece wheel well accent
The trunk strip and the bezel cover the rear; the gas door cover and wheel well accent dress the sides, and the pillar kits handle the windows.
An inch and a half
That is a confident, readable band on the trunk without overpowering it. No length is listed, so look at the photos for the span.
Material
26-gauge 304 stainless with a polished face. There is no plating, so the shine cannot peel away.
Tape mounting
The 1.5" Maxima accent goes on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Nissan.
Surface prep
Wash and dry the trunk, then wipe the strip's footprint with a residue-free cleaner. Wax and sealant left on the paint get between the tape and the lid, so be thorough. Repair chips first.
Putting it on
Hold it in place with the liner on and compare to the photos. Measure each end to the lid edges and mark the top line with painter's tape. Look from behind the car. Then, on a dry day that is neither hot nor cold, peel and press from the center to each end. The Installation tab has the full walkthrough.
Strip, then bezel
If you are fitting LP29540, fit the trunk strip first and center the bezel under it, measuring down from each end of the strip. Two pieces at once means one clean-up and one cure period.
Aftercare
Wait a few days before washing. Mild soap and a soft cloth, and dry the lid after rinsing. Skip polishing compounds.
Why stainless
Check each linked Maxima listing for its finish before you plan the rest of the car. A bezel or wheel well accent fitted a year from now will match it.
Before ordering
Confirm the year and the sedan body, and check the photos of the strip against your trunk lid. If you have questions about spacing between the strip and the bezel, ask before you buy.
Choosing a pillar kit
Neither PP29540 nor PP29541 carries a coverage note. The photos show what the six-piece kit includes beyond the four.

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.
