Placement on the left side of the vehicle allows for precise replacement of a damaged or missing sill while maintaining the original geometry and the characteristic sporty profile of the M package.

Finish and Le Mans Blau Metallic color

The side skirt is finished in the Le Mans Blau Metallic shade, characteristic of sporty BMW configurations. This metallic paint provides a deep, dynamic shade of blue that harmonizes well with the E90 LCI body lines and emphasizes the sporty character of the M Aerodynamics package.

Thanks to the factory color, the component can be used both as a replacement part after damage and for visually upgrading the car with original M components, without the need to change the vehicle's color scheme.

• reduce the visual impact of dirt and minor stone chips in the sill area,
• ensure stable mounting to the factory body points.

The item in used condition is a good solution for post-accident repairs or partial restorations, where the priority is to maintain the original BMW specification at a reasonable cost.
