Hyundai i40 Side Skirt Replacement Parts

The Hyundai i40 was sold in the UK from 2011 to 2019, and the facelift arrived in 2015, bringing updated styling details to the exterior. Side skirts fitted to pre-facelift cars (2011–2015) should generally fit other pre-facelift cars, and facelift cars (2015–2019) should match other facelift examples within that period. Whether a skirt from a pre-facelift car will physically fit a post-facelift car is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as the updated body styling may affect compatibility.

These two cars sit on either side of the 2015 facelift, so they are from different styling generations of the i40. The facelift updated the exterior appearance, and side skirt profiles can change at these boundaries. We'd strongly recommend checking with the breaker directly, quoting both registrations, before buying, as fitment across the facelift year is not guaranteed.

Yes, it can matter — the i40 was sold in the UK as both a saloon and a Tourer (estate), and side skirts are body-specific because they run along the sill line between the wheel arches, which differ in length between the two body styles. Make sure you source a skirt from the same body style as your car, and always confirm with the breaker using your registration to ensure the panel matches.

For the standard SE and Premium trims, the side skirt design is the same and trim level does not affect fitment — a skirt from one will fit the other. The Sport trim did feature a more pronounced bodykit with different side skirt styling, so if your car is a Sport you should specifically look for a Sport-spec skirt, or confirm with the breaker that the part they have matches your car's specification. Colour will also vary between cars, so factor that in if you need a painted panel.

No — side skirts are handed, meaning the nearside (left, passenger side) and offside (right, driver side) are mirror images of each other and are not interchangeable. When asking a breaker for a quote, always specify which side you need to avoid being sent the wrong panel.

Used side skirts from a breaker will almost always come in the colour of the donor car, which may or may not match your vehicle. If the colour doesn't match, the panel will need to be resprayed before fitting, which is a common and straightforward job for a body shop. It's worth asking the breaker for the paint code of the part they have so you can compare it to your own car's code before purchasing.
