Second Hand Nissan Leaf Wing

The Nissan Leaf has run in two main generations: the first-gen (ZE0/AZE0) ran from 2010 to 2017, and the second-gen (ZE1) from 2018 onwards. Wings from within the same generation are your best starting point when searching, as the front-end panels share the same design within each generation. A facelift was applied to the first-gen around 2013, which brought changes to the front end, so always confirm with the breaker whether a specific wing crosses that 2013 boundary before buying.

These two cars sit either side of the first-gen facelift, which happened around 2013 and brought noticeable changes to the front end including the lights and grille area. Both years are first-generation Leafs (ZE0/AZE0 platform), but whether the wing itself interchanges across that 2013 facelift boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against your specific registration before committing. Never assume a pre-facelift panel will drop straight onto a post-facelift car without checking.

Both 2019 and 2022 Leafs are second-generation (ZE1) cars, which ran from 2018 onwards, so these are a strong match from a platform perspective. There are no major facelift boundaries between those years that would typically affect the wing panel, making a used wing from that era a sensible place to start your search. Confirm the part against your registration with the breaker to be sure, as minor running changes can occur within a generation.

For the Nissan Leaf, trim levels such as Visia, Acenta, N-Connecta, Tekna, and e+ do not affect wing fitment — the front-end bodywork is shared across trims within a generation. You may find that higher trims come with different side camera housings or mouldings, so bear in mind there could be minor cosmetic differences on a part pulled from a different trim to yours. The key questions to ask the breaker are generation and facelift period, not trim level.

No — wings are side-specific, so always specify whether you need the nearside (NS, left-hand side as you sit in the car) or offside (OS, right-hand side) when contacting a breaker. Getting this wrong is one of the most common ordering mistakes with body panels, and a breaker will always ask you to confirm. Double-check by looking at your car from the front: the OS wing is on your right, the NS wing is on your left.

A 2017 Leaf is a first-generation car (ZE0/AZE0, built 2010–2017), while a 2018 Leaf is a second-generation model (ZE1), so these are entirely different platforms with different front-end designs. A wing from a first-gen car will not fit a second-gen car, and vice versa — this is a hard generation boundary, not just a facelift. Make sure any breaker you contact knows which generation you need.
