Purpose and fitment for BMW E61 / E61N

The offered tailgate is designed specifically for the rear body section of the BMW 5 Series in the E61 and E61N versions. Its placement in the rear area of the vehicle guarantees proper alignment with the roofline, bumper, and side panels, which facilitates installation and gap adjustment. By maintaining the factory design, compatibility with the original hinges, lock, and equipment wiring provided for this model is preserved.

Spacegrau Metallic color – benefits for body repairs

The factory Spacegrau Metallic - A52 paint is a popular shade used by BMW, which makes it easier to match the component during post-accident or restoration repairs. For a paint technician, this means the possibility of precisely matching the paint mixture, and for the user – limiting the scope of work to potentially painting the joining areas or shade correction, instead of fully repainting the entire tailgate.

Performance and construction parameters

The tailgate belongs to the Tailgates and rear lids group, which means it has been designed to withstand the loads associated with daily opening and closing of the trunk, as well as to properly seal the cargo space. The construction intended for installation in the rear of the vehicle ensures:

• stable operation on hinges and proper performance of the actuators,
• adequate rigidity of the body panel in the trunk area,
• possibility of integration with factory seals and fittings.

The weight of the component specified in the technical data contributes to maintaining the correct operating characteristics of the hinges and actuators, which translates into convenience when operating the trunk.

Condition and use in body and paint repairs

The item is offered as a used tailgate, which is a beneficial solution for post-accident repairs when the priority is to maintain the original body geometry and optimize costs. A used OEM part allows for:

• replacing a damaged tailgate while retaining factory mounting points,
• reducing the scope of straightening and body filler work,
• restoring the functionality of the rear body section while maintaining the original body lines.

Thanks to this solution, you can efficiently restore the full functionality of the trunk while maintaining a consistent look for the rear of the vehicle.
