Product Description
Hyundai Elantra 2017-2020 Side Molding Accent Trim, 4-Piece Polished Stainless (AT17340)
At 1.375" wide, AT17340 is a bolder side accent than the one-inch strips QAA cuts for many sedans. It is a four-piece body side molding accent for the 2017-2020 Hyundai Elantra, 4-door sedan, made from polished stainless steel. The wider strip gives the bright line more presence on the Elantra's doors, which suits its sharp character lines.
Specific to the Elantra sedan
QAA catalogs this kit for the 4-door sedan over four model years: 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. The pieces are shaped for those doors, so there is nothing to measure or trim. The catalog does not list individual piece lengths, so check the product photos to see how the four strips are arranged on the car.
Stainless steel through and through
The strips are made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror shine. Because there is no plating, the finish is part of the metal itself. Grade 304 is the most familiar general-purpose stainless, and 26 gauge refers to the thickness of the sheet QAA starts with.
Tape-on installation
Each piece arrives with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape already applied. The trim installs directly over the existing surface of the doors, with no holes to drill. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the vehicle's surface. Wider strips have more tape area, so clean prep matters: wash, dry, and wipe the mounting line, then dry-fit before you peel. Press firmly along the full length once each strip is in place. The Installation tab has the complete list of steps.
Building a full Elantra set
QAA lists a good range of companion trim for the same 2017-2020 Elantra:
- Pillar post kits in four, six, and eight pieces, the eight-piece kit including the rear triangle piece.
- Two window trim packages: WP17340 with upper trim and pillar posts and no sills, and WP17341, which includes upper trim, sills, and pillar posts.
- A two-piece rocker trim, TH17340, that installs below the door at 1.25" wide.
- An eight-piece wheel well accent, a gas door cover, and a four-piece window sill set for the face of the sills.
The side accent and the rocker trim together give the Elantra two bright lines. The Fitment tab links every part.
Before you order
Confirm your Elantra is a 4-door sedan from 2017 to 2020, then check the Fitment tab for the full catalog row. If anything about your car does not match, call before ordering. Hatchback and coupe versions of the Elantra, if you come across them, are not part of this listing. The kit is cut for the sedan doors only, and that is the only body style QAA catalogs for it. Getting the body style right is the single most common thing to double-check on trim like this.

Installation tips: Body Side Molding Accent Trim
- Unpack all 4 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.
