Cheap Nissan Qashqai Bonnet

The Qashqai has run across two main generations in the UK: the first generation (J10) from 2006 to 2013, and the second generation (J11) from 2014 onwards, with the J11 receiving a facelift in 2017. Bonnets are generation-specific, so a J10 bonnet will not fit a J11 and vice versa. Once you know your generation, give your registration to the breaker to confirm the exact panel.

Both a 2015 and a 2019 Qashqai are second-generation J11 models, but the J11 was facelifted in 2017, which brought changes to the front-end styling including the bonnet profile and shut lines. Your 2019 sits in the post-facelift period while the 2015 is pre-facelift, so whether the bonnet itself interchanges across that 2017 boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying.

Trim level does not affect bonnet fitment on the Qashqai — the same panel is used across Visia, Acenta, N-Connecta, and Tekna within the same generation and facelift period. You may find that bonnets from higher trims arrive with different paint codes or occasionally bonnet-mounted cameras on some Tekna variants, so check cosmetic details with the breaker, but the panel itself will mount the same way.

The Qashqai+2 was a seven-seat extended version of the first-generation J10, and because the bonnet sits ahead of the A-pillar on the shared front-end structure, it is the same panel as the standard J10 Qashqai. This means first-generation bonnets should be interchangeable between the two body lengths, but always confirm with the breaker against your specific registration to be sure.

Yes, both 2011 and 2013 Qashqais are first-generation J10 models, and the front-end structure remained consistent throughout that generation without a significant facelift affecting the bonnet panel itself. A bonnet from a 2013 J10 should therefore be a strong match for a 2011 car, though you should still confirm the colour code and any fixings with the breaker before purchasing.

Engine choice makes no difference to bonnet fitment on the Qashqai — the front-end panel is shared regardless of what is under it. Focus instead on getting the correct generation, confirming which side of the 2017 facelift your car sits on, and matching the paint code if you want a ready-to-fit finish.
