Purpose and function of the emblem

The presented emblem is a component from the tailgate area, mounted on the exterior of the vehicle body in the rear position. It is responsible for the clear identification of the 35 eDrive powertrain version, which is important for both aesthetic and informational purposes – for the user, service technicians, and potential buyers of the vehicle.

This type of lettering is primarily used in situations where:

• the original emblem has been mechanically damaged or affected during paint repairs,
• it is necessary to restore the factory appearance of the rear bodywork,
• the vehicle has undergone visual modifications and there is a need to return to the OEM configuration.

Original BMW origin and fitment

As a BMW brand product, the emblem has been designed for full compatibility with the i4 G26 Gran Coupe model. This ensures a proper fit to the tailgate contours, correct letter and number geometry, and color consistency with other body markings. As a result, the uniform styling line characteristic of the BMW i series is maintained.

The element belongs to the Tailgates and rear parts group, which facilitates its identification in the context of other rear body components – such as decorative trims, handles, or other model badges.

Condition, installation, and application

The offered emblem is used, which in practice means it has been removed from a vehicle and may show signs of wear typical for body components. However, it is a particularly cost-effective solution for repairs where maintaining the original character of the vehicle while optimizing costs is key.

The placement on the vehicle is specified as rear, which clearly indicates the installation zone. The installation of the emblem is standard on the surface of the tailgate, maintaining the correct position and alignment relative to other markings. With proper surface preparation, the installation is simple and does not require any interference with the tailgate structure.

Benefits of using an original emblem

Using the original 35 eDrive lettering on a BMW i4 G26 Gran Coupe offers a number of practical benefits:

• maintaining a consistent, factory-original look of the rear bodywork,
• easier identification of the vehicle's powertrain version,
• better acceptance during potential resale of the car thanks to original details,
• stylistic matching with other elements from the Tailgates and rear parts group.

For users who care about body details, this is an essential component that restores full legibility of the model and powertrain version markings.
