Hyundai Tiburon Hood
We source hood for every Tiburon generation sold in South Africa, then check the fit against your VIN before it leaves the warehouse
What Are Hyundai Tiburon Hood?
The bonnet is the steel or alloy panel covering your Hyundai engine bay, hinged at the windscreen edge with a safety catch at the front. We see Accent release cables stretch and snap, leaving the bonnet jammed shut and we see i20 bonnets dented by hail or rear-enders.
Signs You Need New Hood
Getting the right hood for your Tiburon first time
On the Tiburon, the SA-market coupe in 2.0 and 2.7 V6 form are all in circulation locally, and they do not share one parts list.The coupe body panels, glass and lighting are Tiburon-only, even where the engine and gearbox parts interchange with the Elantra of the same period.
Engine families fitted to the SA-market Tiburon:
Facelifts within a single Hyundai generation changed bumpers, lamps and grilles without changing the model name, and the colour code on the door jamb matters as much as the part itself.
Send us the generation code, whether the car is pre- or post-facelift, and the paint code with your enquiry and we will confirm the correct hood against your car before anything is dispatched.
In South Africa the Tiburon is mostly an enthusiast car with an active owner community, where the split between shared mechanical parts and unique body parts defines what is easy to find. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Tiburon Hood: Common Questions
Will hood from another Tiburon fit mine?
Not automatically. The Tiburon sold in South Africa as the SA-market coupe in 2.0 and 2.7 V6 form, and the coupe body panels, glass and lighting are Tiburon-only, even where the engine and gearbox parts interchange with the Elantra of the same period. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
Can you source hood for the Tiburon if local stock is dry?
Usually, yes. The Tiburon shares core running gear with the Elantra XD, which is the practical route to many mechanical parts, which gives us a second catalogue to search when Hyundai-listed stock runs out. We will tell you what we are quoting rather than leaving you to guess.
How much does a Hyundai bonnet cost in South Africa?

Why won't my Hyundai bonnet open?
The release cable has either stretched, seized, or snapped at the latch end. On higher-mileage cars it is a common failure. Pulling harder just makes it worse. A correct fix involves accessing the latch from underneath through the grille.
How much does it cost to replace a Hyundai bonnet?
A used bonnet plus respray typically runs R2,800-R7,600 fitted for i20, Accent. A new aftermarket panel costs more. Colour-matched used panels from Pro Hyundai Spares save weeks of painting and sanding.
How do I fix a stuck Hyundai bonnet release cable?
Pop the grille, reach the latch with a long-reach screwdriver and trip the pawl manually. Replace the cable and latch together, because cables usually break because the latch pivot seized first and needs cleaning too.
Where can I buy a used Hyundai bonnet in South Africa?
Pro Hyundai Spares and our supplier network keep used bonnets for common Hyundai models. Send your VIN, colour and any dent photos for an accurate same-day quote.
