It looks nice - but is the emblem mounted on the bonnet legal in your country? In the Uk I doubt that it would be unless made of very soft material of no danger to any pedestrian you might hit.

Thanks for the thumbs up, the emblem is a spring loaded type of hinge so it bends back if I happen to hit someone (dam), was hoping it would leave a good impression on someone!!!

Hi Guys
Got the bling off ebay, the badge cost $25 plus postage, the grill bits cost about $99 from Oz seller. Have seen cheaper ones from Hong Kong but add the postage and they work out about the same. As for the "baby's backside" have only put on a strip of chrome around the edge of the bumper. Would like to find a bumper guard for the top of the bumper to stop marks but can only find i30 hatch ones, seen i30cw (estate in UK) one I like but alas cant get it unless you are in the UK. If anyone can help me get one let me know.

Kerwick, I brought mine from Korea and am very happy with it. They are on eBay for $48 with free postage. Search " I30CW bumper protector"

Good luck.

thanks, do you have a pic of it (the bumper protector), have attached a pic of what I am looking for. It has a lip along the edge to stop the paint chipping.

It's a Hyundai accessory in the U.K.
The company that makes them is 10 miles from me so I bought direct but couldn't get much off the price.

Both links are old.  The i30 version IS available for 2011 models but I don't know about the 2012 version.
