Purpose and fitment for BMW E61/E61N

The presented tailgate is a body component mounted at the rear of the vehicle, responsible for closing the luggage compartment and maintaining the proper body lines. Thanks to its factory origin from BMW, the key mounting points, geometry, and contours characteristic of the 5 Series Touring E61/E61N are preserved, which facilitates installation and alignment with the existing bodywork.

The original construction ensures compatibility with factory hinges, the lock, equipment wiring, and the sealing of the rear body section. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, where dimensional compliance with factory body parts is crucial.

Carbonschwarz Metallic color – benefits for body repair

The Carbonschwarz Metallic - 416 finish allows for an aesthetic match of the tailgate to the body in the same shade, which limits the scope of paintwork or allows for its precise planning. The metallic black characteristic of BMW blends well with the E61/E61N line, maintaining a consistent, factory look for the rear of the vehicle.

For body shops and private users, this means the possibility of shortening repair time and easier achievement of a uniform paint surface across the entire tailgate, without compromising on aesthetics.

Performance characteristics and installation

The tailgate belongs to the Tailgates and rear lids group, meaning it has been designed to withstand the loads associated with daily opening and closing of the trunk and to ensure proper rigidity of the rear body section. The design is intended to work with factory sealing and mounting elements, which helps maintain the tightness of the luggage compartment.

The used condition allows for an economical vehicle repair while maintaining original BMW build quality. It is a practical solution for drivers who want to restore the full functionality of the rear body section without having to resort to aftermarket parts with uncertain fitment.

Installation zone and technical aspects

The component is intended for installation in the rear zone of the vehicle, which is important for both safety and proper trunk closing. The appropriately selected weight of the tailgate promotes correct operation with actuators and hinges, and the proper weight distribution affects the convenience of operating the trunk lid.

As an original BMW part, the tailgate has been designed with factory assembly tolerances in mind, which facilitates its alignment relative to the fenders, bumper, and roof, minimizing the risk of leaks and uneven gaps between body panels.
