Fitment questions

What is a slam panel on a Nissan Note and does it actually have one?

Yes, the Nissan Note does have a slam panel — it's the metal cross-member panel that sits at the front of the engine bay, behind the grille, and the bonnet latches onto it. It forms part of the front-end structure and is a genuine used part you'll find at breakers. It's sometimes called a bonnet lock panel or top slam panel.

Will a slam panel from an early Nissan Note (2006–2009) fit my later pre-facelift car?

The first-generation Nissan Note (E11) ran from 2006 to 2013, with a facelift arriving around 2009 that brought changes to the front end including the grille and lights. Within the same facelift period — so pre-facelift 2006–2009 cars among themselves, or post-facelift 2009–2013 cars among themselves — slam panels are generally expected to be interchangeable. Whether a pre-facelift panel crosses over to fit a post-facelift car is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as front-end geometry can shift at a facelift boundary.

Does a slam panel from a 2013 first-gen Note fit a 2014 second-gen Note?

These are different generations — the first-generation E11 Note ran to around 2013, and the second-generation E12 launched in the UK from around 2013–2014 onwards, so the two share no meaningful front-end commonality. You should always source a slam panel from the same generation as your car, and give the breaker your registration to confirm which generation you have, particularly if your car is from that changeover period.

Does the trim level affect which slam panel I need — for example, does an Acenta or Tekna Note need a different panel?

Trim level does not affect slam panel fitment on the Nissan Note — the underlying front-end structure is shared across Visia, Acenta, and Tekna trims within the same generation and facelift period. You may find cosmetic differences in what surrounds the slam panel (grille finish, badge trims) but the panel itself is the same pressing. Confirm the year and generation with the breaker rather than worrying about trim.

Will a Nissan Note E12 slam panel fit regardless of whether the car is petrol, diesel, or the DIG-S supercharged engine?

Engine type does not affect slam panel fitment — the panel is a body structure component, not drivetrain-specific, so it's shared across petrol, diesel, and DIG-S variants within the E12 generation. Focus on matching the generation and facelift period rather than the engine when sourcing from a breaker.

My Nissan Note had a front-end impact — what should I check around the slam panel when buying used?

When buying a used slam panel from a breaker, check that the bonnet latch mounting points are undamaged and that the panel isn't twisted or cracked, as these are the areas most likely to suffer in a front impact. Give the breaker your full registration so they can confirm the correct generation and facelift variant, and ask them to inspect the part before dispatch if buying remotely. A reputable breaker should be able to confirm the part is straight before it leaves them.
