Purpose and BMW compatibility

The cover has been specifically designed for the BMW E90 post-facelift (LCI) body, taking into account the characteristic geometry of the sill on the left side of the vehicle. This ensures correct body line alignment, appropriate contours, and compatibility with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and reduces the need for additional bodywork modifications.

Bluewater Metallic color – visual consistency

The factory Bluewater Metallic shade allows for an aesthetic match with the original body paint. As a result, the component integrates well with the side profile of the car, minimizing the need for additional painting or extensive finishing work. This is a practical solution when replacing a damaged cover due to a collision or corrosion.

Technical characteristics and installation

The sill cover is a body component mounted on the left side of the vehicle, designed to protect the sill and streamline airflow in the lower part of the bodywork. The design, intended for this specific BMW generation, ensures:

• compatibility with the factory sill shape and door line,
• the ability to install it in place of the original strip without interfering with the body structure,
• maintenance of the correct geometry of the vehicle's side section.

The item comes from the secondary market, which allows for an economical replacement while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications.

Practical application and benefits

The use of this sill cover is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, localized bodywork renovations, or restoring the car to a factory-like condition. Maintaining the original color and shape of the sill:

• improves the visual consistency of the entire side of the body,
• helps maintain the vehicle's value on the secondary market,
• limits the scope of additional painting work.
