Purpose and fitment for BMW E91

The presented trunk lid has been designed specifically for the rear body section of the BMW 3 Series E91 version. Its placement in the rear area of the vehicle ensures proper alignment with the roofline, bumper, and side body panels, which is crucial for accident repairs and restoring factory body geometry.

Its original BMW origin promotes the maintenance of appropriate structural rigidity, correct force distribution within the body, and compatibility with factory hinges, locks, and mounting hardware.

Sparkling Graphite Metallic - A22 color

The trunk lid is finished in Sparkling Graphite Metallic - A22, a color characteristic of many BMW E91 units. Thanks to this, with a properly matched paint condition, the scope of paintwork can be reduced or simplified, maintaining visual consistency with the remaining body panels.

The metallic paint coating provides an attractive visual effect while allowing for precise shade matching in professional paint shops, which is important for premium segment repairs.

Characteristics of the used OEM component

The trunk lid is a used component, which in practice means a favorable compromise between repair costs and maintaining the original quality of BMW construction. A used OEM component usually fits into the existing body structure better than aftermarket replacements with uncertain parameters.

Choosing this solution is particularly beneficial for repairs of older vehicles, where both service economy and maintaining the appropriate standard of workmanship and fitment of sheet metal parts are important.

Application in body repairs and upgrades

BMW E91 Trunk Lid Tailgate Rear Back Boot Sparkling Graphite Metallic - A22 is suitable for:

• accident repairs of the rear body section,
• replacing a corroded or damaged trunk lid,
• restoring the original appearance of the vehicle after unprofessional modifications,
• restoration projects where maintaining the factory character of the BMW is essential.

Thanks to the preservation of OEM geometry, it is possible to correctly set the gaps between panels, which affects aesthetics, aerodynamics, and proper closing of the trunk.

The item has a dedicated OEM part number and related interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific equipment version and model year of the BMW E91.
