Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 Series E90/E91

The presented sill strip has been designed specifically for BMW 3 Series E90/E91 models equipped with the M Aerodynamics package. It is a component intended for the right side of the body, allowing for precise fitment to factory mounting points and maintaining the correct geometry of the side line.

The original construction ensures:

• visual consistency with other M Sport package components,
• proper adhesion to the sill and the lower door edge,
• preservation of factory gaps and body lines.

Carbonschwarz Metallic color – finish characteristics

The strip is finished in Carbonschwarz Metallic, which corresponds to the factory BMW paint palette marked with code 416. It is a dark, metallic shade of black that blends well with both light and dark body colors, revealing a subtle metallic effect in the light.

Thanks to this, the component can be used as:

• a direct replacement for a damaged strip in a car of the same color,
• a base for potential painting when changing the body color,
• a supplement to a complete set of M Sport sills on the right side.

Protective function and utility values

The M Sport sill strip serves not only an aesthetic function but also a practical one. It protects the lower part of the body against typical operational damage, such as stone chips or dirt thrown from under the wheels. This reduces the risk of corrosion in the sill area and makes it easier to keep the side of the body in good visual condition.

Key advantages include:

• factory fitment to the BMW 3 Series E90/E91 body line,
• increased protection for the lower part of the door and sill,
• preservation of the sporty character of the M Sport version.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered sill strip is a used part, which means it comes from vehicle dismantling and may show typical signs of wear. Such components are popular choices for accident repairs or restoring the factory look of a car, as they allow for maintaining original specifications at reasonable costs.

Choosing a used OEM component is advantageous especially when you care about:

• maintaining original geometry and build quality,
• visual consistency with other body components,
• reducing repair costs while maintaining the manufacturer's standard.
