Technical Characteristics and Purpose

The presented rear bumper is specifically designed for the BMW F40 series in the M Package version, taking into account the factory body geometry and mounting points. The construction is prepared for cooperation with the PDC system, which enables the correct operation of parking sensors after proper installation and transfer of hardware from the vehicle.

Its placement on the vehicle is limited to the rear of the body, which simplifies component selection for accident repairs or visual upgrades. The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and Reinforcements group, thus serving both an aesthetic and structural function within the rear body zone.

Storm Bay Metallic - C3N Color and Visual Matching

The factory Storm Bay Metallic - C3N color is a distinctive metallic shade used by BMW, ensuring consistency with the manufacturer's original paint palette. For users who own a vehicle in the same color, using this bumper can reduce the scope of painting work or facilitate its preparation.

The metallic paint finish has been selected for compatibility with the M Package styling line, maintaining the sporty appearance of the vehicle's rear. For professional body and paint repairs, such an element provides a solid base for further visual matching.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Bumper

Choosing an original BMW F40 rear bumper in the M Package version with PDC preparation offers a range of practical advantages:

• maintaining the factory body line and proper fit with other rear vehicle components,
• prepared for the installation of PDC parking sensors according to the factory layout,
• compatibility with the structure and mounting points designed by the manufacturer,
• easier service work for accident repairs or replacement of a damaged bumper.

This allows the bumper to be used for both standard repairs and for upgrading the car to a sportier look, characteristic of the M Package.

Used Condition and Service Application

The part comes from the aftermarket, allowing for optimized repair costs while maintaining original BMW construction. This choice is particularly beneficial for accident repairs where a combination of quality and a reasonable service budget is important.

The rear bumper in this configuration is suitable for body and paint shops, BMW-specialized services, and individual users looking for a factory body part for their F40 M Package with PDC system.
