Intended Use and Function of the Part

Its purpose is to aesthetically complete the edges of the lid, shield the lock area, and harmoniously connect the body lines with the rear of the vehicle. Its placement on the rear of the vehicle significantly impacts the visual perception of the entire car's silhouette, particularly in the upper bumper area and around the taillights.

As an original BMW part, the finisher maintains the correct geometry, mounting points, and profile tailored to the 7 Series F01/F02 boot lid. This allows for precise fitting with other body components, without the need for modifications or adjustments to the mounting points.

Color and Paint Matching

The part is factory finished in Mineral White Metallic – A96, a pearlescent white characteristic of many BMW 7 Series F01/F02 models. The use of original metallic paint ensures:

• shade consistency with other body panels in the same color,
• preservation of the characteristic depth and pearlescent effect typical of BMW paints,
• reduced need for repainting when the vehicle's color is properly matched.

For users looking to restore the factory appearance of the rear bodywork after mechanical damage or corrosion, the original Mineral White Metallic – A96 paint is a significant advantage, simplifying the restoration process and reducing preparation time for installation.

• it supports the integrity and proper guiding of the boot lid edges.

The part is sourced from a vehicle and offered as a used part, allowing for economical repair or replacement of a damaged finisher while maintaining original BMW quality. This is a practical solution for both accident repairs and bodywork restoration on vehicles used daily.
