Purpose and fitment for BMW

The presented tailgate is a factory BMW body component, designed specifically for the E61 series. The lid's construction complies with the manufacturer's requirements regarding geometry, mounting points, and edge alignment, which facilitates installation and ensures proper fitment with the fenders, bumper, and rear window.

By maintaining the original body line, the tailgate allows for restoring the correct geometry of the rear of the car after a collision or corrosion, as well as maintaining the factory character of the vehicle without interfering with the load-bearing structure.

Carbonschwarz Metallic - 416 color

The trunk lid is finished in Carbonschwarz Metallic - 416, characteristic of many BMW E61 configurations. The metallic paint provides color depth and a good match to the originally painted body elements, which in many cases allows for limiting paint work to only potential local touch-ups.

Choosing a tailgate in the identical paint code is a practical solution for post-accident repairs – it facilitates maintaining a uniform shade across the entire rear part of the body and minimizes the risk of visible color differences between elements.

Design characteristics and installation

The tailgate is intended for installation in the rear area of the vehicle, maintaining the factory mounting points for hinges, the lock, and additional equipment. This means it is possible to use the existing installations and accessories in the car, such as actuators, wiring harnesses, or trim elements, in accordance with the configuration of a specific vehicle.

As an element from the Tailgates and rear lids category, the lid is responsible for the proper closing of the cargo space, the tightness of the rear part of the body, and the correct alignment of the body lines. Proper fitment is important not only for aesthetics but also for functionality – it affects noise reduction, the proper operation of seals, and the comfort of daily trunk usage.

Condition and use in repairs

The offered tailgate is a used component, which makes it a reasonable choice for post-accident repairs, restorations, or returning the car to full efficiency after mechanical damage. Using an original dismantled trunk lid often allows for significantly reducing repair costs compared to purchasing a new element, while maintaining the factory construction specifications.

This solution is particularly beneficial for users who want to keep the car in a technical and visual state as close to the factory condition as possible, without using replacements of uncertain geometry or build quality.
