Purpose and function of the component

The presented fuel flap is designed as a body part that works with the standard fuel filler opening and closing mechanism in the BMW F46. It is responsible for:

• protecting the fuel filler neck from dust, water, and road salt,
• maintaining the aesthetic side line of the body,
• proper guidance of the paint edge in the fuel filler area.

Thanks to the factory mounting geometry and correct profile, the component ensures proper fitment with the fender and the filler lock flap, without the need for structural modifications.

Color and Estoril Blau Metallic B45 paint matching

The flap is finished in Estoril Blau Metallic B45, characteristic of sport-styled BMW models. The metallic paint coating was factory-matched to the body line, which facilitates:

• maintaining a uniform color in the fuel filler area,
• reducing the scope of potential paint work when replacing the component,
• maintaining the original visual character of the vehicle.

In the case of accident repairs or local renovation of the side body part, using a flap in the same paint code allows for more precise shade matching compared to unpainted components.

As a used part, the Fuel Flap BMW F46 Fuel Tank Fill In Flap Estorilblau Blue Metallic B45 is a practical solution for maintenance and bodywork repairs where preserving original geometry and compatibility with factory hinges and locks is a priority. The component comes from disassembly, which in practice means:

• preservation of standard mounting points,
• compatibility with the factory fuel filler system,
• possibility of installation in place of a damaged flap without interfering with the body structure.

The used component is a good choice for repairs where a combination of original origin and reasonable cost for restoring full functionality of the fuel filler area is important.
