Purpose and function of the trunk lid

The offered trunk lid is a body component mounted at the rear of the car, responsible for closing the luggage compartment and maintaining the proper body lines. As a part from the Doors and door panels category, it works in conjunction with hinges, the lock, actuators, and seals, ensuring:

• stable closing of the trunk lid,
• proper fitment to the body shell,
• maintenance of the vehicle's rear geometry.

Color and paint matching Alpinweiss 3 - 300

The lid is factory-finished in the Alpinweiss 3 - 300 shade, characteristic of many BMW E90 units. For users who own a car in the same color, this means the possibility of limiting the painting scope to local touch-ups or corrections, which shortens repair time and reduces the costs of preparing the component for installation.

For restoration or tuning projects, the uniform, light paint also serves as a convenient base for potential repainting to a different color or applying a wrap.

Characteristics of the used component

The trunk lid comes from disassembly, which allows for maintaining the factory geometry and fitment typical of original BMW parts. A used component of this type is often chosen for:

• accident repairs of the rear body section,
• replacing corroded or damaged body panels,
• restoring the car to a factory-like condition after modifications.

Thanks to the preservation of the original mounting structure, the lid can be matched to existing mounting points, which facilitates bodywork and shortens the time required for gap adjustment.

Application in repair and tuning projects

This element will prove useful both in standard service repairs and in individual projects where a consistent look of the rear body section is important. It can be used, among other things, for:

• rebuilding a car after a collision involving damage to the rear lid,
• visual modernization of the vehicle's rear while maintaining the original BMW E90 line,
• preparing the car for full or partial painting.
