Purpose and fitment for BMW 1 Series

The presented trunk lid has been designed specifically for the BMW 1 Series E81, E87, and E87N generations, maintaining the factory body lines and the characteristic proportions of the vehicle's rear section. The placement of the component at the rear of the vehicle ensures proper fitment with external body panels, the bumper, and lighting, which facilitates installation and subsequent gap adjustment.

As a part from the Trunk lids and tailgates category, this component allows for the preservation of the original body geometry, which is important for both aesthetics and the correct closing of the lid, as well as the operation of the lock and hinges.

Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 color

The lid is factory-finished in Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 paint, characteristic of many BMW 1 Series configurations. This metallic shade of graphite blends well with the body lines, emphasizing the dynamic character of the car and making it easier to match with the vehicle's existing paintwork.

For many users, this means the possibility of reducing the scope of paintwork – in the case of a similar condition of the coating on the car, polishing and potential blending of adjacent elements is often sufficient, which shortens repair time and reduces costs.

Characteristics of the used component

The trunk lid is a used original BMW component, which in practice means factory construction, correct sheet metal thickness, and compatibility with factory mounting points. Compared to aftermarket replacements, this ensures better fitment to the body, predictable behavior during adjustment, and compatibility with factory mounting accessories.

The used nature of the part makes it a cost-effective solution while maintaining OEM quality, which is important for both private repairs and professional body and paint shops.

Benefits of using an original tailgate
