Purpose and function of the tailgate

The presented tailgate is dedicated for installation in the rear body section of the BMW 1 Series E82 version, where it is responsible for closing the luggage compartment and ensuring the proper lines of the bodywork. As an element from the Tailgates and rear lids category, it provides stable mounting for hinges, the lock, and other components transferred from the previous tailgate.

The bare construction allows for the use of existing equipment elements, such as trim strips, wiring harnesses, or the lock, which is beneficial for post-accident repairs and restoring the vehicle to its factory specification.

Color and paint matching Le Mans Blau Metallic

The tailgate is factory-painted in Le Mans Blau Metallic, a color characteristic of sporty BMW configurations. This metallic shade allows for aesthetic matching to bodywork in the same color, reducing the scope of paint work and facilitating a quick restoration of the vehicle's consistent appearance.

For body shops and individual users, this means the possibility of shortening repair time and reducing the costs of additional painting, especially when the rest of the bodywork has retained its original paint in the same shade.

Structural characteristics and installation

As an element mounted in the rear of the vehicle, the tailgate has been designed to correctly handle loads resulting from the operation of hinges, actuators, and the lock. The bare form facilitates:

• transferring original components from a damaged tailgate,
• adjusting equipment to a specific vehicle version,
• maintaining compatibility with factory mounting points.

Such a configuration is particularly beneficial for repairs where it is important to use existing sub-assemblies and maintain compliance with the manufacturer's technical documentation.

Part condition and use in repairs

The item comes from the secondary market, which makes it an attractive solution for economic repairs, where a reasonable cost in relation to the vehicle's value is important. A used tailgate allows for the restoration of full trunk functionality and correct rear body geometry without the need to invest in a new part.

Such a solution is often chosen by professional services specializing in post-accident repairs, as well as by conscious users looking for parts with proven construction and factory origin.
