Application and fitment for BMW E82 Coupé

The presented tailgate is intended for installation in the rear of the BMW 1 Series E82 Coupé version. The design corresponds to factory dimensions and mounting points, which facilitates installation in place of a damaged component without the need for bodywork modifications. Its original origin ensures proper fitment with the rear fenders, bumper, and lighting, which is important for both aesthetics and the tightness and safety of operation.

Black Sapphire Metallic color – benefits for repair

The factory Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 paint is a popular, elegant shade used in many BMW models, particularly appreciated in coupé versions. Using a tailgate in this color often allows for limiting the work to local paint coating matching instead of full repainting of the component. For body and paint shops, this means savings in time and materials, and for the vehicle owner – a faster return of the car to service while maintaining a consistent body appearance.

Design and assembly characteristics

The tailgate belongs to the group of body components responsible for protecting the luggage compartment and maintaining the vehicle's aerodynamic line. The design intended for installation in the rear of the body ensures:

• proper placement of hinge and actuator mounting points,
• space for the installation of factory seals and the lock,
• preservation of the rear body geometry after repair.

Thanks to this, the component can be used both for standard replacement after a collision and for more extensive restoration projects where maintaining factory gaps and body lines is essential.

Condition, origin, and performance parameters

The offered tailgate comes from dismantling and is a used component, which in practice means a favorable cost-to-quality ratio compared to new body parts. Such components are frequently chosen by workshops specializing in BMW post-accident repairs because they allow for preserving the original sheet metal structure and factory design solutions. The component has a specific weight, which is important when selecting actuators and when planning transport and installation in the vehicle.
