Intended Use and Fitment for BMW E81/E87

The presented fender is specifically designed for BMW 1 Series E81 and E87 models, taking into account the geometry of the factory body. Its placement on the vehicle is the front right side, ensuring proper alignment with the hood, bumper, sill, and passenger door. By retaining the original stamping lines and mounting points, the part, when correctly installed, restores the factory appearance of the bodywork without the need for structural modifications.

Sparkling Graphite Metallic - A22 Color

The fender is in the Sparkling Graphite Metallic - A22 color, characteristic of many BMW 1 Series vehicles. For owners of cars in this shade, this means the possibility of limiting the scope of painting work – in many cases, correction and polishing are sufficient to achieve a cohesive visual effect. Maintaining the original color also facilitates shade matching if the entire part needs to be repainted.

Characteristics of a Used Part

The fender comes from a dismantled vehicle, which allows for the preservation of its factory material and structural specifications. A used BMW body part is a good solution for drivers and workshops looking for a reasonable compromise between repair cost and maintaining original quality. This type of part is particularly suitable for collision repairs, correcting parking damage, or replacing a corroded component.

Application in Body Repairs

The front right fender in Sparkling Graphite Metallic - A22 allows for a technically correct reconstruction of the front body section. In practice, this means:

• restoring factory gaps between body panels,
• correct alignment of the wheel arch line relative to the wheel and bumper,
• the possibility of installing factory mountings, covers, and inner wheel arch liners,
• maintaining the original front-end geometry of the vehicle after repair.

For body and paint shops, a used BMW fender provides a practical base for further work, reducing repair time and the amount of filler needed.

Identification Parameters and Compatibility

The part has a dedicated OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers, which facilitates unambiguous identification and selection for a specific BMW E81/E87 version. It is advisable to verify compatibility using the VIN or reference numbers to ensure the fender is suitable for the specific vehicle. This information is particularly important for professional service centers and shops working with workshops.
