Used Hyundai i40 Front Panel

The Hyundai i40 was produced as a single generation, sold in the UK from 2011 to 2019, so front panels generally come from this same model run throughout. However, the i40 received a facelift in 2015, which brought changes to the front-end styling including the grille and bumper area, so the pre-facelift (2011–2015) and post-facelift (2015–2019) panels may differ. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before purchasing.

This is a cross-facelift question: the 2013 car is pre-facelift and the 2017 is post-facelift, with the facelift falling in 2015. The front-end styling changed at that point, so these panels may not be directly interchangeable. Confirm with the breaker whether the specific panel from the earlier car will suit your post-facelift registration before going ahead.

Trim level does not affect front panel fitment on the i40 — the structural front panel is shared across SE, SE Nav, Premium, Premium Nav, and Sport trims within the same facelift period. You may find cosmetic differences such as trim finishers or badge placement between grades, so check the breaker's photos carefully to make sure the finish matches what you need. The key question is always pre- or post-facelift, not the trim name.

Front panels on the i40 are shared across body styles within the same generation and facelift period, so a panel from a saloon and a Tourer estate of the same era should correspond at the front end. The facelift boundary in 2015 remains the critical fitment question regardless of body style. Confirm the specific part against your registration with the breaker to be sure.

Engine type does not affect front panel fitment on the i40, so whether your car is a petrol or diesel makes no difference to this part. The facelift period — pre-2015 or post-2015 — is what you should focus on when asking a breaker for a quote. Confirm the part against your registration to be certain.

The facelift was introduced during the 2015 model year, so a 2015 registration could be either pre-facelift or post-facelift depending on when in the year the car was built. The safest approach is to check your registration with the breaker directly, who can cross-reference the exact build date or VIN to confirm which front-end specification your car has. Never assume based on the year plate alone when ordering across a facelift boundary.
