Hyundai i20 Scuttle Panel Replacement Parts

The i20 has run across two main generations: the first generation from 2008 to 2014, and the second generation from 2014 onwards, with a facelift of the second generation around 2018. The scuttle panel is body-shell specific, so a first-generation panel will not cross over to a second-generation car and vice versa. Always confirm the exact generation with your breaker against your registration plate.

These two cars sit in different generations — the 2013 model is first-generation (2008–2014) and the 2015 model is second-generation (2014 onwards) — so the body pressing changed significantly between them. A scuttle panel from a 2013 is very unlikely to fit a 2015, and you should treat these as non-interchangeable. Confirm this with your breaker using both registration numbers before purchasing.

The scuttle panel sits between the bonnet and windscreen and is tied to the platform and generation rather than the door count, so a 3-door and a 5-door on the same generation should use the same pressing. That said, confirm this with your breaker against both registrations, as minor pressing changes can occur that are not always publicly documented.

Trim level — whether that is Classic, SE, Premium, or any other grade — does not affect scuttle panel fitment; the panel is determined by generation and body shell, not specification. A panel pulled from any trim level within the same generation should fit your car structurally. Bear in mind there may be cosmetic differences such as finish or any integrated grille mesh on some variants, so mention your trim to the breaker so they can match appearance as closely as possible.

The second-generation i20 received a facelift around 2018, which means a 2018 car could be either a late pre-facelift or an early post-facelift model depending on its exact build date. Whether the facelift brought any pressing changes to the scuttle panel specifically is something you should confirm with your breaker using your registration, as this is one of those mid-generation boundaries where differences are not always clearly published. Give your breaker your full registration so they can check the part against their actual dismantled vehicle.

Some versions of the i20 platform have been sold under different names in other markets, and whether those share identical body pressings with the UK i20 is not something that can be stated with certainty here. Route this question directly to your breaker, who can compare the part physically against your car's registration details before you commit to buying.
