Purpose and fitment

The presented tailgate is dedicated to the rear section of the BMW 1 Series E82 version, ensuring proper geometry, compatibility of mounting points, and correct alignment with the fenders, bumper, and rear window. Its placement in the rear area of the vehicle allows for the restoration of original structural rigidity and correct body lines following mechanical damage.

The bare tailgate construction allows for the use of existing equipment, such as hinges, locks, actuators, or wiring harnesses, which helps control repair costs and maintains consistency with other vehicle components.

Color and exterior finish

The factory color Alpinweiss 3 - 300 is a characteristic, bright BMW white that complements the body lines of the 1 Series E82. Using the original shade limits the scope of paint work – in many cases, local blending and polishing are sufficient instead of a full repaint of the entire component.

A uniform Alpinweiss 3 coating helps achieve a consistent visual effect with the remaining body panels, which is important for both post-accident repairs and vehicle restoration for sale or fleet use.

Structural characteristics

The tailgate belongs to the Tailgates and rear lids group, meaning it is designed to withstand the loads resulting from daily operation – frequent opening, closing, and the operation of the lock mechanism and actuators. The structure is prepared for the installation of factory equipment without the need to modify mounting points.

The appropriately selected weight of the component promotes proper operation of the hinges and actuators, as well as maintaining the correct balance of the tailgate during opening and closing. This allows for smooth mechanism operation without overloading the existing assembly.

Condition and service application

The item is in used condition, making it an attractive solution for repairs where the cost-to-functionality ratio and maintaining the original BMW body structure are important. A used tailgate allows for an economical vehicle rebuild while maintaining factory assembly specifications.

This type of solution is particularly useful in body and paint shops, services specializing in the BMW brand, and for individual users who want to restore full functionality to the rear of the vehicle after a collision or corrosion of the original component.
