Used Volkswagen Amarok Front Grille

The Amarok has been sold in two main generations in the UK: the original first-generation model running from 2010 to 2022, and the second-generation model launched in 2023 onwards. Within the first generation there was a significant facelift in 2016 which updated the front-end styling including the grille, bumper and lights, so a pre-facelift grille (2010–2016) and a post-facelift grille (2016–2022) are not the same part. Always match the year of your vehicle to the correct facelift period when requesting a quote.

The 2015 model sits in the pre-facelift period of the first generation, while the 2018 model falls after the 2016 facelift, so these two vehicles have different front-end styling and the grilles are unlikely to be a straight swap. The 2016 facelift is the key boundary here, and whether a specific grille crosses that line is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration before ordering. Do not assume parts from either side of 2016 are interchangeable.

Trim level does not affect grille fitment on the Amarok — the front-end panels are shared across trim grades within the same generation and facelift period, so a grille from a Trendline, Highline or Aventura will physically fit the same way. However, you may find cosmetic differences between trim levels such as chrome finishes, gloss black surrounds or badging, so the grille you receive may look slightly different to your original if it came from a different trim. Confirm the finish with the breaker if matching appearance matters to you.

The grille is a front-end panel and is shared across body styles within the same generation and facelift period, so wheelbase and cab configuration do not affect which grille fits. Whether your Amarok is a single cab or double cab, the key questions remain the generation (first-gen 2010–2022 or second-gen 2023 onwards) and which side of the 2016 facelift your vehicle falls on. Confirm the year and facelift period with the breaker against your registration to make sure you get the right part.

The second-generation Amarok launched in 2023 is a completely new platform with a redesigned front end, so its grille is not compatible with any first-generation (2010–2022) parts. You will need to source a grille specifically from a second-generation (2023-on) donor vehicle. Confirm this with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

The most important details to give the breaker are your vehicle's registration number and the year of manufacture, as these allow them to confirm which generation and facelift period your Amarok belongs to. The 2016 facelift is the critical boundary within the first generation (2010–2022), and parts from either side of it are unlikely to interchange directly. Engine, trim level and cab style do not affect which grille fits, so you do not need to worry about those when searching.
