Purpose and fitment

The presented tailgate has been designed specifically for the BMW E93 model, taking into account factory mounting points and the geometry of the rear body section. Its placement in the rear area of the vehicle guarantees compatibility with the body lines, seals, as well as lighting and locking components, which facilitates installation and subsequent adjustment.

Thanks to the use of an original OEM design, proper assembly gaps are maintained, and the tailgate works seamlessly with the vehicle's factory hinges, actuators, and central locking system. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, where restoring the original geometry of the rear of the car is crucial.

Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 paint finish

The tailgate is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic - 475, characteristic of many BMW trim levels. The metallic structure of the paint provides color depth and a good match to original body elements in the same shade, which limits the scope of any potential paint work required after installation.

Choosing the right color is not only important for aesthetic reasons but also practical ones – a correctly matched tailgate allows for a faster repair process, and the vehicle retains a consistent, factory look without visible tonal differences in the rear body section.

Functional characteristics and installation

The component belongs to the Tailgates and rear parts group, meaning it has been designed to withstand the loads resulting from daily use – frequent opening, closing, and the operation of the locking mechanism. The tailgate construction is prepared for integration with original additional components, such as interior trim, lighting, or mounting elements.

The used condition allows for an economical vehicle repair while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. In practice, this means the ability to restore full functionality to the rear body section without the need to resort to replacements with uncertain fitment.

Use in BMW body repairs

The BMW E93 tailgate will prove particularly useful in situations where the rear of the vehicle has been damaged as a result of a collision, hail, or corrosion. Using an original body component facilitates body and paint work, shortens adjustment time, and minimizes the risk of problems with the rear geometry of the car.
