Purpose and function of the component

The described panel is a part of the BMW 1 SERIES 8 E87 Trim Panel Bumper Rear PDC, responsible for the aesthetic and functional finish of the rear bodywork. The component is prepared for use with PDC parking sensors, ensuring full functionality of the parking assistance system and correct sensor placement in the bumper zone.

Its location at the rear of the vehicle makes the panel important both for protecting the bumper structure and for the stable mounting of equipment (including sensors). Proper alignment with the body lines reduces the risk of stress, looseness, and unwanted vibrations during operation.

Color and paint matching

The factory color Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 is a distinctive metallic shade of black used by BMW, which blends well with the body lines of the 1 Series E87 models. Using the original color allows you to:

• maintain visual consistency of the entire bumper and rear bodywork,
• limit the scope of potential paint work,
• maintain compliance with BMW's factory paint specifications.

For many users, it is important that the panel in this shade makes it easier to restore the vehicle to a near-factory condition after body and paint repairs, without the need to change the body's color scheme.

Installation and technical characteristics

The panel is designed for installation in the rear body section, within the bumper area, utilizing factory mounting points. The component's design is adapted for integration with the PDC system, meaning it features designated spaces for parking sensors and the appropriate surface geometry around them.

As a part from the Bumpers and reinforcements group, the component works with other bumper parts, such as reinforcements, brackets, or covers, creating a cohesive protective system for the rear of the vehicle. A correctly installed panel helps maintain the proper rigidity and stability of the entire bumper assembly.

Product condition and benefits of choosing a used part

The offered panel is a used part, which allows for an economical restoration of the rear bumper's functionality and aesthetics while maintaining original BMW specifications. Choosing this solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs or minor body corrections, where compliance with factory geometry and color is essential.
