Intended Use and Function of the Part

The wheel arch trim described has been specifically designed for the BMW X1 E84 model and is installed in the area of the left rear wheel arch. Its purpose is to provide an aesthetic finish to the body edge around the wheel and to protect the sheet metal from direct exposure to debris thrown up by the tire.

Thanks to its precise profile, the part works correctly with the side panel and rear door, which reduces the risk of dirt accumulation at the junction of the panels and improves the visual continuity of the vehicle's side line.

Paint Color and Matching

The trim is factory finished in the Black Sapphire Metallic – 475 shade, allowing for consistency with the bodywork in the same paint code without the need for additional painting, provided the surface condition is appropriate. The metallic black complements the other body elements, highlighting the distinctive styling of the BMW X1 E84.

Choosing a part in the same color reduces preparation work and shortens body repair time, especially when replacing a damaged trim due to a collision or localized corrosion.
