Comprehensive body and mounting equipment
Fenders, bumpers, mounts and other body parts in one place
Bodywork, mounts and accessories are not only elements that affect the aesthetics of a car, but also key components that ensure safety and driving comfort. From fenders and bumpers to mirrors and covers - each element has its own importance, protecting the vehicle from damage and improving its functionality. In the Global Parts automotive store we offer a wide range of used car parts for bodywork, mounts and accessories, perfectly matched to the brands BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and many others
What does the bodywork, mounts and accessories include?
Bodywork, mounts and accessories is a broad category that includes a variety of parts that affect the appearance and functionality of your vehicle. The most important include:
- Spoilers and wings – They improve the vehicle’s aerodynamics, stability at higher speeds and give it a sporty look.
- Car Antennas – They are responsible for receiving radio signals, as well as the operation of GPS and GSM systems in modern vehicles.
- Emblems and decorations – Details that emphasize the make, model and unique character of the vehicle.
- Grills and radiator grilles – They perform a protective and aesthetic function, improving air flow to the radiator.
- Locks and bolts – They are responsible for the correct closing of the doors, trunk lid and bonnet, increasing the safety of the vehicle.
- Door sill trims – They protect the sills against mechanical damage and give the car a stylish look.
- Protective and decorative strips – They protect the bodywork against damage and emphasize the body line.
- Parts for front and rear glass and windows – They include window lifting mechanisms, seals and other elements that improve the functionality of car windows.
- Half covers and covers – Bodywork protection against dirt, scratches and weather conditions.
- License Plates and Frames – They keep the license plate in the right place and protect it from damage.
- Bumpers and parts – They are responsible for protecting the bodywork during a collision and also influence the vehicle’s aerodynamics.
- Doors, trunk lids and flaps – Body elements that provide easy access to the vehicle interior and trunk.
- Longitudinal parts of the body frame and supports – They strengthen the vehicle structure and increase its rigidity.

- Exterior mirrors and parts – They provide visibility and improve maneuver safety.
- Brackets, mounts and mounting parts – Fasteners that hold the bodywork and accessories in place.
- Mudguards, wheel arches and fuel filler caps – They protect the bodywork against dirt, water and mechanical damage.

- Spare wheel holders and covers – Protection and convenient attachment of the spare wheel.
- Pickup Truck Beds and Parts – Elements increasing the functionality of the cargo space in pickup trucks. Each of these elements must be made of materials resistant to external factors such as moisture, UV radiation or changing temperatures.
Why is it worth taking care of the bodywork, mounts and accessories?
Regular maintenance and replacement of damaged or worn body parts, mounts and accessories is key to maintaining the aesthetics and functionality of your vehicle. Neglected parts can lead to:
- Bodywork corrosion, which can reduce the durability of the vehicle.
- Damage to other components, e.g. mechanical, due to lack of protection.
- Decrease in the aesthetic and market value of the car. At Global Parts we offer original used car parts , which provide excellent quality at an affordable price.
How to choose the right body parts, mounts and accessories?
