The slam panel (also called the front panel or radiator support panel) is the structural metal panel that sits between the headlights at the front of the car, supporting the bonnet latch, radiator and front end assembly. All Nissan Almera models have one, regardless of engine size or trim level, so you are in the right place looking for this part.
No — the N15 and N16 are completely different generations with different front-end structures, so their slam panels are not interchangeable. You must source a slam panel that matches your generation: N15 for 1995–2000 cars, or N16 for 2000–2006 cars. Always confirm the part against your registration with the breaker before purchasing.
The N16 Almera received a facelift around 2003, which brought changes to the front-end styling including the headlights and grille. Whether the slam panel itself interchanges across that facelift boundary is something you should confirm directly with the breaker, quoting your registration, as the answer can depend on the exact part and how the front end was revised.
Trim level does not affect slam panel fitment — the structural front panel is shared across all trim grades within the same generation, whether your car is an S, SE, SLX or any other variant. You may find cosmetically different parts attached in the region (such as badges or trim clips), but the slam panel itself is the same pressing. Just make sure the donor car is the same generation as yours.
Within the same generation, the slam panel is a front-end structural component shared across body styles, so the hatchback and saloon variants of the same Almera generation use the same panel. Focus on matching the generation and facelift period rather than body style when searching for a used slam panel.
Engine size has no bearing on slam panel fitment — the panel is part of the car's front-end structure and is the same across petrol and diesel variants within a generation. Simply match the generation (N15 or N16) and confirm the facelift period with your breaker to make sure you get the right part.
