Purpose and fitment

The presented rear bumper is designed for installation in the rear body section of the facelifted BMW 1 Series E81/E87 generation. The design provides for integration with factory PDC parking sensors, which facilitates maintaining the full functionality of parking assistance systems. Thanks to the use of original mounting geometry, the bumper ensures proper fitment with the side panels, trunk lid, and reinforcement elements.

Color and paint finish

The component is finished in the Spacegrau Metallic - A52 shade, characteristic of many BMW configurations. The metallic paint coating allows for aesthetic matching to the factory body paint, and in the case of minor shade differences, it facilitates spot correction or polishing. For body shops, this means reducing the scope of preparatory work and shortening the repair time.

Technical characteristics and installation

The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and reinforcements group, meaning it works with factory beams, absorbers, and mounts intended for this body generation. Its placement in the rear of the vehicle allows for the restoration of proper impact zone protection and correct styling lines. The construction is prepared for the installation of serial accessories, such as trim strips or PDC sensors, which makes it easy to transfer equipment from the damaged component.

The product has a specific weight, which is important when planning transport and organizing assembly work in the workshop. Thanks to the retention of factory mounting points, the installation proceeds in a predictable manner, without the need for structural modifications.

Condition and practical application

The bumper is a used original BMW component, which in practice means a beneficial combination of OEM quality and an attractive price compared to new parts. This solution is particularly recommended for:

• accident repairs in the rear body section,
• restoring the factory appearance after local damage,
• economical renovation of older BMW 1 Series models.

For workshops and individual users, this is a way to maintain the original character of the car without the need to use replacements with uncertain fitment.

Compatible elements from the same group

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the rear body zone in your BMW and need other elements from the same group, such as additional bumpers, reinforcements, or mounting beams, check the available parts in the BMW Bumpers and reinforcements category.

Operational tips and additional information

Before installation, it is recommended to thoroughly inspect the bumper surface, prepare the mounting points, and verify compatibility with the vehicle's equipment (e.g., placement of PDC sensors). In the case of paint work, it is worth maintaining technology consistent with the metallic coating to maintain color consistency with the remaining body panels.
