Purpose and body fitment

The presented rear right door is dedicated to the BMW 3 Series E90 generation saloon, ensuring proper alignment with the roofline, pillars, and sill. Its placement in the rear passenger-side section allows for seamless integration with factory hinges, locks, and equipment wiring, in accordance with the design specified by the manufacturer.

By maintaining the original structural support, the door panel supports the proper operation of seals, windows, and mechanisms, and facilitates maintaining the appropriate lateral stiffness of the body. This is particularly important for post-accident repairs, where the accurate reproduction of factory mounting points is crucial.

Karmesinrot – A61 color and aesthetic values

The door is finished in the factory Karmesinrot – A61 color, also known as Crimson Red, characteristic of sport-styled BMW 3 Series models. Using the original shade makes it easier to match the existing vehicle paint, which in many cases allows for minimizing the scope of painting or precisely preparing the surface for color correction.

The uniform color and proper structure of the paint coating contribute to maintaining a consistent appearance of the entire side of the car, which is important both visually and for the potential resale of the vehicle. An element in this color is particularly beneficial when replacing a door in cars already painted in the Karmesinrot shade.

Technical and structural characteristics

As a body component from the Doors and door panels category, the product serves as a complete base for transferring equipment from damaged doors, such as the window, lock, wiring harness, or upholstery (depending on the mounting configuration in a given vehicle). The construction is prepared to work with factory mounting points, which facilitates the work of body shops and painters.

The properly selected weight of the door promotes the correct operation of the hinges and closing comfort. Thanks to this, after proper installation, one can achieve the characteristic, solid closing typical of BMW, without excessively loading the body's load-bearing elements.

Condition, origin, and benefits of using a used part

The door comes from the secondary market, which allows for combining reasonable repair costs with maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. A used BMW body component is a good solution for drivers who want to avoid problems with fitting aftermarket parts and reduce the time needed to prepare the vehicle for further use.

Using the original construction helps maintain factory gaps between body elements, which affects aesthetics, aerodynamics, and the reduction of wind noise while driving. This is especially important in BMW 3 Series class cars, where acoustic comfort and precision of workmanship are an essential part of the car's character.

Installation recommendations and additional information

Before installation, it is recommended to perform a standard verification of the surface condition, prepare the mounting points, and dry-fit the door to the body line, followed by adjusting the hinges and lock. Such an approach allows for achieving proper adhesion to the seals and even gaps, which translates into the durability of the repair.
