Hyundai i10 Slam Panel Replacement Parts

Yes, the Hyundai i10 has a slam panel — it is the structural cross-member at the front of the engine bay that the bonnet latch, radiator, and front-end components mount to. It is a standard feature across all i10 variants regardless of engine size or trim level. If your i10 has suffered a front-end impact, the slam panel is one of the first structural parts to check for damage.

The first-generation i10 ran from 2007 to 2013, and slam panels within that generation are generally shared across the range regardless of engine or trim. The first generation received a facelift around 2011, which brought changes to the front-end styling including the grille and lights, and whether the slam panel itself changed across that facelift boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration before buying. Stick to the same generation for the safest starting point.

The second-generation i10 launched in late 2013 and ran through to 2019, and slam panels within this generation are generally compatible across the range. However, this generation received a facelift around 2016–2017 that updated the front-end appearance, so whether the slam panel interchanges across that facelift boundary is something worth confirming with the breaker against your specific registration. For the third-generation i10, which arrived in 2019, you would need a completely different panel.

No, your trim level does not affect slam panel fitment on the i10 — SE, Premium, Go!, and other trim grades all share the same front-end structure within a given generation. The slam panel itself sits behind the bumper and grille and is not a cosmetic part, so trim-related differences in badges or grille finishers are irrelevant here. Just match the generation and double-check the facelift period with your breaker.

Engine choice makes no difference to slam panel fitment on the i10 — the front-end structure is shared across all engine variants within a generation. Whether your car has a 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2 petrol engine, the slam panel is the same part. Simply focus on matching the correct generation and facelift period.

Both a 2014 and a 2016 i10 fall within the second generation (2013–2019), so they share the same basic platform, which is a good starting point. However, the second-generation i10 had a facelift in the mid-2010s, and 2014 and 2016 models may sit either side of that styling update depending on exact build dates, so you should confirm interchangeability with the breaker using both vehicles' registrations before purchasing. A breaker with access to parts data will be able to check whether the panels are the same part number.
