Purpose and fitment for BMW F07 GT

The Fuel filler flap and accessories version dedicated to the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo F07 is designed as a body component mounted in the rear part of the vehicle. The construction is based on factory mounting points, which allows for precise alignment with the fender line and the tailgate. Its original origin ensures compatibility with the body geometry, proper hinge operation, and correct closing of the fuel filler.

Space Grey Metallic A52 color and aesthetic values

The factory Space Grey Metallic A52 paint is a characteristic metallic shade of grey used by BMW, which effectively masks minor dirt and highlights the body lines. Using an original color on the fuel filler flap reduces the need for additional paint work, which shortens repair time and minimizes the risk of shade differences between body panels. This is particularly important for spot repairs after minor collisions or parking damage.

Technical characteristics and installation

The component is intended for installation in the rear part of the vehicle, in the fuel filler area. The cover design is adapted to the factory opening and closing mechanism, which allows for maintaining tightness and proper guidance of the flap relative to the body. As a result, the functionality of the refueling system and the aesthetics of the side body section are preserved after replacement.

The product comes from the Fuel filler flap and accessories group, meaning it has been designed to operate in the immediate vicinity of the fuel system, taking into account resistance to temperature changes, fuel exposure, and typical operational loads.

Condition, application, and benefits of choosing a used part

The part is offered as used, which is a cost-effective solution for accident repairs or restoring a vehicle to its factory condition on a reasonable budget. Choosing an original, used fuel filler flap allows you to maintain the factory body line and paint color while reducing costs compared to a new component that would require a full painting process.

The BMW F07 GT Fuel Filler Fill-In Flap Cap Cover Space Grey Metallic - A52 will work well for both body and paint repairs and for replacing a single damaged element after minor parking damage, ensuring a consistent look for the side of the body.

Technical support and component selection

When selecting a fuel filler flap, it is worth paying attention to the paint color match and body version to avoid differences in shade and shape. If necessary, you can refer to the OEM number or interchangeable numbers visible in the product's technical specification, which facilitates compatibility verification with a specific BMW F07 GT unit.
