Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • 2011 Kia Optima sedan with matching Korea-build front bumper

Product Overview

A lower grille is often replaced after road debris, a curb strike, tow-hook damage, broken mounting tabs, or fading leaves the front bumper looking unfinished. It also restores the open mesh that helps keep larger debris away from the radiator area.

The insert fills the lower center opening of the front bumper cover. It is a trim and protection piece, not the upper grille, active air shutter, radiator, or complete bumper cover.

Match 86561-2T000, KI1036113, model year, Korea-build bumper, EX/LX/SX/SXL or Hybrid trim details, mesh pattern, tow-hook and sensor openings, tabs, and product photos. VIN and original grille comparison are the safest checks.

Compatibility Notice

Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application that is not shown above.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this the upper grille around the Kia badge? A: No. It is the lower center grille in the front bumper cover.

Q: Will it fit an Optima Hybrid? A: Some listings include Hybrid trims, but bumper and build differences require VIN and original-part comparison.

Q: Can it fix broken bumper-cover mounting slots? A: No. Damaged slots in the bumper cover itself may need repair or cover replacement.

Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is a new aftermarket product. Brand names and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
