Purpose and vehicle placement

The presented hinge operates in the rear part of the body, on the right side, and is responsible for the stable guidance and support of the trunk lid. The design is matched to the geometry of the BMW F22/F23 series body, which facilitates installation and ensures proper cooperation with other components of the lid opening and closing mechanism.

Thanks to the factory paint in the Mineral White Metallic – A96 shade, the component integrates well with the body line, reducing the need for additional paint work by the user or the workshop.

Technical and functional characteristics

The hinge has been designed as an original BMW part, which translates into dimensional compatibility with factory mounting points and proper operation of the trunk lid throughout its full range of motion. The properly selected hinge geometry allows for:

• smooth lifting and lowering of the trunk lid,
• proper guidance of the lid relative to the body,
• maintaining a stable position when closed, without unwanted play.

The placement on the vehicle in the rear, right part of the body is factory-defined, which facilitates the identification of the correct element when selecting a replacement part. Using an original hinge helps maintain factory gaps between the lid and the fenders as well as the bumper, which is important for both visual and functional reasons.

Color and paint matching Mineral White Metallic – A96

The factory color Mineral White Metallic – A96 is a popular shade used in many BMW F22/F23 series vehicles. Using a hinge in the same paint code allows for reducing the risk of tonal differences between the new component and the rest of the body. This is particularly beneficial for repairs where maintaining a consistent appearance of the rear of the vehicle is a priority.

For body shops and individual users, this means a shorter vehicle preparation time and fewer operations related to color matching.

Part condition and practical service application

The item is offered as a used part, which is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. Such components are often chosen for post-accident repairs, reconstruction of the rear body section, or replacing worn-out hinges when compliance with the factory vehicle design is a priority.

In service practice, this type of hinge is effective for:

• repairs after collisions involving the rear part of the body,
• replacing components of the trunk lid mechanism,
• restoring the correct alignment and operation of the trunk lid.

Support for part selection and verification

The selection of the correct hinge for a specific version of the BMW 2 Series should always be confirmed based on the OEM number and interchangeable numbers, as well as the paint code compatibility. In practice, this helps avoid ordering errors and speeds up the installation process on the vehicle.
