Purpose and function of the component

The described panel is part of the Console Parts group and is responsible for the aesthetic finish of the rear section of the center console in the BMW i3 I01 generation. Its placement in the rear zone of the cabin means this component contributes to the visual consistency of the passenger space and protects the console structure from accidental mechanical damage.

The black color scheme is characteristic of the factory BMW i3 interior finish, allowing the panel to blend harmoniously with other center tunnel components and upholstery. Replacing this element is particularly recommended in cases of cracks, scuffs, or signs of heavy wear in the rear part of the console.

Construction, fitment, and installation

The panel has been designed as part of the original BMW center console assembly system, which translates into precise alignment with adjacent components. The design includes factory mounting points, ensuring that installation is straightforward and does not require any modifications to the interior structure.

As a component dedicated to a specific model and location in the rear of the vehicle, the panel provides:

• stable seating within the console structure,
• seamless transitions between the panel and adjacent trims,
• maintenance of the original design line of the BMW i3 interior.

Thanks to the preservation of factory geometry, there are no unwanted gaps or protruding edges after proper installation, which is important from both an aesthetic and ergonomic perspective for the rear cabin area.

Visual and functional characteristics

The black color of the panel effectively masks typical signs of daily use, such as light dirt or minor abrasions, which is particularly important in an area used by rear-seat passengers. The uniform, subdued color helps maintain an orderly, technical character in the interior, typical of BMW.

As a used component, the panel represents a reasonable compromise between cost and maintaining the original finish standard. For many users, it is an effective way to restore the aesthetics of the rear console without the need to invest in a new component.

Benefits of using an original console panel

Using an original center console trim panel in the BMW i3 I01 allows you to maintain factory interior fitment and compliance with the manufacturer's original design concept. This solution is especially recommended for post-accident repairs, interior restoration, or preparing a vehicle for resale, where a cohesive cabin look and proper component alignment are essential.
