Technical specifications and fitment
The fuel filler flap belongs to the Fuel filler covers and accessories group, which means it has been designed to ensure proper closing and protection of the filler against external factors. The construction complies with Mini factory standards, ensuring that the correct gaps, geometry, and mounting method to the bodywork are maintained.
The original Mini brand origin facilitates seamless integration with the existing inner flap, hinge, and opening mechanism. The component is ready for installation in the factory location, without the need for bodywork modifications or additional adjustments.
Color and body aesthetics
The finish in the Kite Blue Metallic - B48 shade ensures consistency with body paint in the same tone. The metallic structure of the paint works well with the lines of the Mini body, emphasizing the characteristic design of the R55 and R56 models.
For users replacing a damaged or scratched flap, maintaining color consistency eliminates the need for additional painting. This is particularly beneficial for spot repairs, where quick installation and an aesthetic final effect are important.
Purpose and service application
Fuel Cover MINI R55 R56 Filler In Flap Cap Kite Blue Metallic B48 is suitable for both post-accident repairs and the replacement of worn-out components. The used nature of the part allows for an economical restoration of the vehicle's original appearance while maintaining the proper function of the fuel filler cover.
The element is particularly useful in situations where:
- mechanical damage to the flap has occurred (cracks, deformations),
- the paint on the existing cover is heavily scratched or faded,
- it is necessary to restore visual consistency after body and paint repairs.
Selection support and additional technical information
Choosing the right fuel filler cover for a Mini should always be based on vehicle data and catalog numbers, which minimizes the risk of purchasing an incompatible part. In case of doubt, it is helpful to compare the shape, mounting method, and color with the currently installed flap.
If you are planning a comprehensive repair or modernization of the fuel filler area in your Mini and need other components from the same group, such as additional covers, guards, or accessory trim elements, check the available parts in the Mini fuel filler covers and accessories category.
