Product Description
Tapered Stainless Side Accent Trim for the 2019-2022 Toyota Avalon, 2 Pieces (AT19165)
AT19165 is not a straight strip. QAA cut this two-piece body side molding accent for the 2019-2022 Toyota Avalon with a tapered width that runs from 1.375" down to 0.25". The kit is two pieces for the 4-door sedan, and the taper lets the accent swell and narrow along the body, giving the long Avalon profile a sense of motion even when it is parked.
What a tapered accent does
A constant-width strip draws a line. A tapered one draws a shape. Because this kit narrows from 1.375" at its widest point to a quarter inch at the other end, it reads more like a sweep of brightwork than a pinstripe. The catalog lists the taper but not the length of each piece, so look at the product photos to see exactly where it starts and ends on the car.
Made from 304 stainless
Both pieces are made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror shine. The finish is the metal itself, not a plated coating. If your Avalon already has bright trim, solid stainless sits comfortably next to it. Grade 304 is one of the most common stainless alloys used for trim, and 26 gauge refers to the thickness of the sheet QAA starts from before cutting and polishing each piece.
Mounting
QAA pre-applies 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape to each piece. The accent installs directly over the existing surface, with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. A long, tapered piece is easiest with two people: one to hold the narrow end in position and one to work along the wide end. Clean and dry the mounting area thoroughly first. The Installation tab has the full sequence.
The rest of the Avalon catalog
QAA makes a deep range for this Avalon. A few highlights:
- Four pillar post kits. PP19165 has four pieces, PP19166 has six with the rear triangle, PP19167 has eight with the rear triangle and an additional rear piece, and PP19168 has ten with the front triangle.
- TH19165, a four-piece rocker trim installed below the door with its own tapered width of 2.25" to 1.125" to 2.75".
- Two front grille accents, SG19165 and SG19166, plus a rear deck accent at 1.875", a rear bumper accent, a license plate bezel, and a four-piece wheel well accent.
Pairing this side accent with the TH19165 rocker trim carries the tapered theme along the whole side of the car. All parts are linked in the Fitment tab.

Installation tips: Body Side Molding Accent Trim
- Unpack all 2 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.
