Product Description
QAA AT49317: 12-Piece Stainless Side Accent for the 2009-2010 Ford F-150 Crew Cab 5'5" Bed with Flares
AT49317 covers a narrow slice of F-150 history. QAA lists it for only two model years, 2009 and 2010, and only for the Crew Cab with the 5'5" bed and fender flares. If that describes your truck, this twelve-piece body side molding accent in polished stainless steel is cut for it, with each piece 0.375" wide. It runs a slim line of brightwork with the body around the flared wheel openings and along the short bed.
A very specific fit
Four details all need to line up before you order:
- Model year 2009 or 2010.
- Tagged Crew Cab, 4-door pickup truck.
- 5'5" bed.
- With flares.
QAA catalogs this kit separately from its other F-150 side accents because of those details. A Crew Cab short bed without flares, for example, is a different kit, and so is the Crew Cab with the longer bed. Unsure about flares? They're the moldings standing out from the fender around each wheel opening. For the bed, measure the floor from the bulkhead to the tailgate.
Why flares need their own kit
Flares change where the flat body side begins and ends around each wheel. A kit cut for a truck without flares would not follow the same line. That is why the flare note in QAA's fitment is just as important as the bed length and the year.
Material and finish
Every piece is made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror shine. Solid stainless means the shine is part of the metal, not a plated layer. At three-eighths of an inch, the accent reads as a fine stripe of steel, which keeps the look clean on a truck that already has a lot going on visually with its flares.
Installation
QAA pre-applies 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape to every piece, and the kit installs directly over the existing surface of the truck. There is no drilling, and no factory part has to come off. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface. Begin with the pieces nearest the flares, since they set the line, then fill in the rest. Wash and dry the panels thoroughly first, and dry-fit before peeling the liners. The Installation tab has a step-by-step order.
Two model years only
The listing covers only 2009 and 2010, so a used-truck buyer should check the year on the paperwork, and look at the fenders to confirm the flares match what this part is listed for. Later model years are not part of this listing, even if the cab, bed, and flares match. The Fitment tab shows the catalog row exactly as QAA has it, including the bed and flare notes.

Installation tips: Body Side Molding Accent Trim
- Unpack all 12 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle before removing any tape liner.
- Clean and dry the mounting surface so the 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape bonds to paint or trim, not dirt or wax.
- Peel the liner, align the piece, and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
