Underground Parts

Aftermarket styling and spare parts for mainstream European marques

Underground Parts is a British online retailer specialising in aftermarket vehicle styling and replacement parts. According to its own presentation, the company supplies aftermarket spare parts sourced directly from manufacturers and also designs a range of styling components that are only available through Underground Parts. The catalogue is organised by vehicle make and model rather than by product type, which places the emphasis on fitment to a specific car.

A catalogue built around specific models and generations

The range covers a broad set of makes, with dedicated sections for Audi, BMW, Ford, Land Rover, Mercedes, Renault, Vauxhall, Volkswagen, Citroën, Fiat, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mini, Nissan, Peugeot, Seat, Skoda, Toyota and Volvo. Within each marque the navigation narrows down to individual models and, in many cases, to particular production periods. Examples include the Volkswagen Polo split into MK4 (2005-2009), MK5 (2009-2013) and MK6 2018, the Golf divided into MK4, MK5, MK6 and MK7, and the Audi A3 listed separately for the 8V generation of 2013-2016.

Exterior trim, grilles and mirror components

Much of the listed stock consists of exterior styling and trim pieces. The catalogue includes front bumper grilles and grille surrounds, including honeycomb and gloss black designs, such as an aftermarket honeycomb grille for the Audi A4 B9 of 2015-2019 and a gloss black front grille for the Golf MK7 of 2013-2017. Door wing mirror covers and caps appear repeatedly across makes, in gloss black, metallic black, black painted and carbon fibre effect finishes, along with mirror indicator lenses and lower mirror covers. Wheel arch trims and fender mouldings are also offered for models including the Fiat Ducato, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tucson and Range Rover Evoque.

Protection and interior accessories

Beyond styling, the shop lists protective and practical accessories. Rear bumper protectors and scratch guards are sold in ABS and metal versions for vehicles such as the Volkswagen Tiguan II, the Mercedes Vito and V-Class, the Skoda Octavia III and the Volvo XC60. The range also includes tailored-fit rubber floor mat sets and boot liners, for instance for the Mercedes C-Class 2014-2020 and the Volvo XC60. Prices shown in the catalogue sit in the tens of pounds for most trim items, rising to around £150 for certain grilles.

Stock availability as shown in the catalogue

The product listings mark a significant number of items as sold out, including several grille and mirror cover references, while other products display a sale price. This reflects the state of the online catalogue when this profile was written rather than a permanent condition of the range.
