Hyundai i20 Exhaust Tips
Whether your i20 is an early or late build, we match the exhaust tips to your derivative rather than to the badge
What Are Hyundai i20 Exhaust Tips?
Exhaust tips are the visible chrome or stainless trim on the back of your Hyundai's silencer — cosmetic on i20 and Accent standard trims, functional-looking on N models with twin-outlet setups. They don't add power but do clean up the rear of the car after years of SA road grime.
Signs You Need New Exhaust Tips
Before you order exhaust tips for a i20
Does one exhaust tips listing cover every i20?
No. Sold here across PB, then GB, then the current BC3, the i20 is not one car for parts purposes — it is several.The PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it.
Which engine is in my i20?
SA-market cars were sold with Kappa 1.2, Gamma 1.4 and Kappa 1.0 T-GDi (N Line). The code stamped on the block settles it — the badge on the boot does not.
What do you need from me to quote exhaust tips?
The model year and engine code, and which section has failed. Catalytic converters and sensors are emissions-standard specific, so a part from a different market or a different production year of the same Hyundai may physically fit and still not satisfy the engine management.
In South Africa the i20 is mostly a high-mileage commuter hatch that spends its life in stop-start city traffic, which is why wear items move faster on an i20 than on almost anything else Hyundai sells here. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Before You Order i20 Exhaust Tips
Will exhaust tips from another i20 fit mine?
Not automatically. The i20 sold in South Africa as PB, then GB, then the current BC3, and the PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
How do you check exhaust tips actually fits a i20?
We work backwards from the VIN: generation first, then engine family, then whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within that generation. On the i20 specifically, the PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it.
How much do Hyundai exhaust tips cost?
Tips are the cheapest exhaust upgrade — budget aftermarket stainless clamp-on tips are affordable, while bolt-on OEM-look twin-outlet units for i20 N cost more. SA sourcing is through our supplier network. Send your model for a quote.
Do exhaust tips change the sound of a Hyundai?
Very little. A larger-diameter tip can add a slight resonance but most of the sound comes from the silencer and cat. If you want a deeper note, a silencer or full cat-back is the right job — tips are purely cosmetic on most Hyundais.
What size exhaust tip fits a Hyundai i20?
Standard i20 silencer outlet runs around 45-55 mm OD; i20 N often has a larger twin-outlet arrangement. Measure the outlet diameter first, or send us a photo. We match clamp-on tips to exact OD so they sit square and don't rattle.
Where can I buy Hyundai exhaust tips in South Africa?
We source clamp-on and weld-on tips nationally through our SA supplier network. I20 N and i30 N twin-outlet look-alikes are the most-requested. Send your model year and a photo of the current silencer for a quote.
Let us confirm the exhaust tips before you buy
Photos of the old part and your VIN are usually all we need. We confirm the exhaust tips against your i20 before quoting, not after.
