Hyundai Coupe Bonnet Replacement Parts

The Hyundai Coupe was sold in the UK across two main generations: the first generation (RD) ran from around 1996 to 2002, and the second generation (GK) ran from 2002 to 2009, with a facelift arriving in 2007 that revised the front-end styling including the bonnet, lights and grille. Bonnets are generally shared across the same generation and facelift period, so always match the year of the donor car to the same generation and facelift period as your vehicle. Confirm the exact part with the breaker against your registration before buying.

This question sits right on the GK-generation facelift boundary: the GK generation ran from 2002 to 2009, but 2007 marked a facelift that changed the front-end panels including the bonnet. A 2004 bonnet comes from the pre-facelift GK and a 2007 bonnet could be either pre- or post-facelift depending on production date, so you should not assume they interchange. Confirm with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing to be sure.

No — the first-generation RD Coupe (1996–2002) and the second-generation GK Coupe (2002–2009) have completely different front-end structures and panel shapes, so bonnets are not interchangeable between the two. Always buy a bonnet that matches your specific generation.

Trim level does not affect bonnet fitment on the Hyundai Coupe — the bonnet panel itself is the same across SE, SIII, and V6 trims within the same generation and facelift period. Bear in mind that a used bonnet may arrive in a different colour and could have different surface finishes, so factor in a respray when budgeting. Confirm the generation and facelift period with the breaker against your registration to ensure the correct panel.

Both years fall within the GK generation (2002–2009), but the 2007 facelift is a key boundary here: a 2005 bonnet is pre-facelift and a 2008 bonnet is post-facelift, and these may not be the same panel. You should confirm with the breaker whether the pre- and post-facelift bonnets interchange for your specific registration before committing to a purchase.

No — engine choice has no bearing on bonnet fitment for the Hyundai Coupe; the bonnet panel is shared across all engine variants within the same generation and facelift period. Focus on matching the generation (RD 1996–2002 or GK 2002–2009) and whether your car is pre- or post-2007 facelift, and confirm the details with the breaker against your registration.
