Overview

About the vehicle

The first-generation i30 N pairs a compact five-door body with the purposeful details of Hyundai's N division: wide lower intakes, red accent trim, a roof spoiler and twin exhaust outlets. Its balanced hatchback proportions make wheel diameter, ride height and camber changes immediately visible in the Build Studio, while the clean body surfacing responds especially well to gloss and metallic paint finishes.

Aesthetics

Styling Guide

Expert advice on how to approach modifying the Hyundai i30 N. Learn how different choices affect the visual balance of this specific chassis.

Wheels & Fitment

The i30 N suits lightweight motorsport wheels with open spokes that keep its large red calipers visible. Graphite preserves the factory character, while bronze or bright silver adds contrast to the red lower trim.

Suspension & Stance

A moderate drop gives the compact hatch a planted stance without losing its functional performance look. Mild camber works best with the short wheelbase and upright cabin.

Paint & Finish

Performance Blue is the signature finish, while white, deep red and cool grey also show the i30 N's crisp shoulder line and black aerodynamic details clearly.
