Hyundai Tucson Exhaust Tips
Exhaust Tips for the Hyundai Tucson — new, used and aftermarket stock, quoted once we know which Tucson you are running
What Are Hyundai Tucson 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.

Tucson Exhaust Tips: what actually decides fitment
What changes across the range
Tucson owners are usually surprised by how much turns on the generation code — JM, LM, TL and NX4 all sold here.
The LM Tucson and the ix35 are the same vehicle sold under two names in different markets, so ix35 stock is a legitimate source for LM-generation parts and vice versa.
Worth knowing: the Tucsonruns in lockstep with the Kia Sportage — JM with KM, LM with SL, TL with QL, NX4 with NQ5.
What we check on exhaust tips
- •The generation code, because Tucson parts lists split on it
- •The engine family — this Tucson was sold with Beta II 2.0 (JM), Theta II 2.0 (LM), Gamma 1.6 T-GDi (TL), Nu 2.0 and R-line 2.0 CRDi (TL)
- •The model year and engine code, and which section has failed
- •Whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within its generation
In South Africa the Tucson is mostly the family SUV that does school runs during the week and gravel-road holiday mileage over December, a duty cycle that is hard on suspension and cooling components. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai Tucson Exhaust Tips FAQs
Will exhaust tips from another Tucson fit mine?
Not automatically. The Tucson sold in South Africa as JM, LM, TL and NX4, and the LM Tucson and the ix35 are the same vehicle sold under two names in different markets, so ix35 stock is a legitimate source for LM-generation parts and vice versa. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about Tucson exhaust tips?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The Tucson ran as JM, LM, TL and NX4, so the generation is what narrows the search.
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.
