Purpose and fitment for BMW E88 Cabrio

The presented trunk lid is dedicated to the rear section of the BMW 1 Series E88 in the Cabrio version. Its placement in the rear area of the vehicle ensures proper cooperation with hinges, the lock, lighting, and trunk sealing, which translates into correct closing and stable guidance of the lid while driving.

Its original origin from the Trunk lids and rear parts category means that factory stampings, body lines, and mounting points are preserved, which facilitates installation without the need for structural modifications.

Alpinweiss 3 - 300 color and visual aspect

The lid is finished in the factory color Alpinweiss 3 - 300, characteristic of many BMW models. This makes it possible to limit the scope of paint work, especially in the case of cars in the same shade of white. Maintaining the original paint coating promotes visual consistency with other body elements and facilitates matching during the renovation or post-accident repair process.

The Alpinweiss 3 color scheme works well with both light and dark styling packages, which allows for aesthetic integration of the lid with the styling line of the entire vehicle.

Technical characteristics and installation

The trunk lid has been designed for stable mounting in the rear part of the body, with properly positioned mounting points for hinges, actuators, and the lock. The design intended for the Cabrio version takes into account the specifics of the rear section of the E88 model, including the geometry of the trunk opening and the routing of the seal edge.

The element has a specific weight, which is important when selecting actuators and the lifting mechanism – maintaining factory mass parameters promotes the proper operation of the entire lid opening and closing system. This allows for maintaining proper lid balance and ease of operation during daily use.

Condition of the element and use in repairs

The trunk lid is a used original component, which allows for maintaining factory geometry and compatibility with the BMW body. This type of part will work well both for post-accident repairs and for replacing worn or corroded body elements, where fitting to the existing body structure is essential.

Using an original lid from the same model generation reduces the risk of problems with gap lines, fitment, and lock operation, which is especially important in the case of precisely tuned BMW bodies.
