The handle is finished in Sterlinggrau Metallic - 472, characteristic of many BMW X5 E53 units. The metallic paint ensures consistency with the original trunk lid finish, reducing the need for additional painting after installation. As a result, the component fits well into the body line, and the tailgate area retains a uniform, aesthetic appearance.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered handle comes from a used vehicle, which means it is a pre-owned part that retains the functionality intended by the manufacturer.

A used trunk grab handle allows for optimizing service costs while maintaining the factory assembly standard.

• provides a secure grip during loading and unloading,
• supports the maintenance of proper geometry and rigidity of the tailgate grip zone.
