Application and function in the BMW body

The presented tailgate is designed for installation in the rear of the E92 series coupe body. The component is responsible for the tight closure of the luggage compartment, maintaining the correct body lines, and providing stable mounting for rear equipment, such as lighting or interior trim (depending on the vehicle configuration). The OEM construction ensures proper geometry, which facilitates the alignment of gaps and fitting to the fenders and bumper.

Black Sapphire Metallic color – benefits for repairs

The factory Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 paint allows for reducing the scope of paintwork required when replacing a damaged tailgate. For many BMW vehicles in this color, this means the possibility of installation after preparation and potential coating correction, without the need for full repainting. Metallic black effectively masks minor shade differences, which is beneficial when matching to older paintwork on the body.

Mounting parameters and fitment

As a component from the Tailgates and rear lids group, the product is designed to operate in the rear zone of the body, taking into account operational loads and its own weight. The properly selected weight of the tailgate affects the correct operation of the actuators and hinges, as well as the comfort of opening and closing the trunk lid. The OEM construction facilitates the transfer of existing equipment from the previous tailgate, such as seals, wiring harnesses, or the lock (if not included with the specific unit).

Used condition and practical advantages

The tailgate comes from the secondary market, which allows for combining reasonable cost with maintaining the original BMW specification. A used body component is a good solution for post-accident repairs when the priority is to maintain factory geometry and compatibility with other body panels. In many cases, installing an original, used tailgate shortens the repair time compared to fitting aftermarket replacements.
