Purpose and fitment for BMW E90

The presented boot lid has been designed as a rear body component for the BMW 3 Series E90. Its placement at the rear of the vehicle ensures proper fitment with the fenders, bumper, and lighting, in accordance with the manufacturer's original design specifications. By maintaining the original structural integrity, the lid provides a solid base for transferring hinges, the lock, and other mounting accessories from the previous component.

Carbonschwarz Metallic – 416 color and paint properties

The factory color Carbonschwarz Metallic – 416 is a distinctive, dark black with a metallic effect, often found in mid-size premium BMW models. Using this shade on the boot lid allows for a reduction in paintwork scope, especially when the remaining body panels retain their original paint. The metallic structure of the coating promotes an aesthetic appearance and facilitates visual matching with other body panels after professional polishing or potential blending.

Structural characteristics and performance parameters

The BMW E90 boot lid is manufactured as a load-bearing component of the rear body, responsible for the proper closing of the luggage compartment and interaction with seals and the lock. The construction intended for installation in the rear zone of the vehicle ensures adequate rigidity and stability during operation, as well as proper alignment of the body lines. The product has a specific weight, which is important both from the perspective of installation ergonomics and maintaining the factory balance of the lid relative to the actuators and hinges.

Condition of the component and use in repairs

The boot lid is a used component, sourced from an original BMW vehicle. Such components are often chosen for post-accident repairs when the priority is to maintain factory fitment quality and reduce costs compared to new parts. The original boot lid from dismantling allows for:

• maintaining consistency with the body line and factory mounting gaps,
• utilizing existing mounting points for equipment,
• consistent color matching in the Carbonschwarz Metallic – 416 shade after appropriate paint preparation.
