Purpose and fitment

The presented fender is designed as a body component mounted on the front right side of the vehicle, in accordance with BMW's factory mounting points. This ensures that the correct gaps between the hood, bumper, doors, and headlight are maintained, which is important for both aesthetics and proper airflow around the bodywork.

The original construction ensures compatibility with factory brackets, wheel arch liners, covers, and other front body components, which facilitates installation and reduces the need for additional bodywork modifications.

Color and finish Black Sapphire Metallic

The fender is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic, identified by paint code 475, which is characteristic of many BMW models. The metallic black provides an elegant, deep shade that harmonizes well with the body lines of the 3 Series E90/E91 and allows for an aesthetic replacement of the part in case of mechanical damage or corrosion.

Using the factory color limits the scope of paint work – in many cases, simple matching and polishing are sufficient to achieve a consistent visual effect with the remaining body panels.

Characteristics of the used part

As an aftermarket part, the fender offers a favorable cost-to-quality ratio while maintaining original geometry and structural rigidity. A used body component allows for a technically correct vehicle repair, especially in cases of parking damage, low-speed collisions, or localized corrosion.

Choosing an original, used fender is often preferred over replacements with uncertain geometry, as it facilitates precise alignment with the doors, hood, and bumper, and helps maintain the factory body lines.

Use in body and paint repairs

The front right fender in Black Sapphire Metallic is suitable for both post-accident repairs and body restoration when it is necessary to replace a corroded or deformed part. Thanks to the factory profiling, it is possible to:

• restore the original shape of the wheel arch and the edges adjacent to the door and sill,
• ensure proper wheel clearance within the wheel arch,
• maintain a consistent side body line in E90/E91 models.

This solution is particularly beneficial for vehicles where the priority is to maintain the original appearance and correct aerodynamics of the front body section.

Additional technical and operational information

Before installation, it is recommended to perform a standard verification of the surface condition and prepare for any potential paint work in accordance with the manufacturer's technology. A correctly installed fender works with the factory wheel arch mounting points, which is important for protecting the wheel well from dirt and moisture.
