Purpose and Fitment for BMW X3 E83 LCI

The presented bumper has been specifically designed for the BMW X3 E83 LCI version, meaning its construction is compliant with the facelifted generation of this model. Its placement on the vehicle, designated as the front, ensures proper fitment with factory mounting points, grille, headlights, and other elements of the front fascia.

Thanks to the use of original geometry, the bumper maintains correct body lines, which simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional bodywork adjustments. This is particularly important in post-accident repairs where precise restoration of the vehicle's original front-end geometry is crucial.

Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 Paint Finish

The Black Sapphire Metallic - 475 color is a distinctive metallic shade of black used by BMW, which complements the styling of the X3 E83 LCI. The metallic paint structure highlights the bumper's shape in both daylight and artificial light, ensuring a cohesive look with other body elements in the same color.

Choosing a bumper with the correct paint code can minimize the scope of painting work or facilitate it when only shade matching to the rest of the body is required. This is a practical solution for professional body repairs where both aesthetics and turnaround time are important.

PDC Functionality and Use in Safety Systems

The bumper is adapted for compatibility with PDC parking sensors, enabling integration with the factory parking assistance system in the BMW X3 E83 LCI. Appropriately prepared sensor housings allow for their correct seating, maintaining the proper working angle, and secure mounting.

This solution is particularly beneficial when replacing a damaged part in vehicles equipped with the PDC system, as it allows for the full functionality of parking assistants to be retained without the need for modifications or additional bodywork.

Characteristics of a Used Part

The offered bumper is a used item, meaning it comes from a vehicle dismantling. Such parts are often chosen for repairs where a combination of reasonable costs with the preservation of original construction and model compatibility is important.

For used parts, maintaining the basic load-bearing structure and mounting points is crucial, which translates to the possibility of reinstallation in the vehicle without interfering with factory design solutions.

Assistance with Selection and Additional Technical Information

The part belongs to the Bumpers and reinforcements group, which facilitates its identification in catalogs and parts selection systems. The product has assigned OEM part numbers and interchangeable numbers that allow for precise verification of compatibility with a specific BMW X3 E83 LCI version, including VIN-based selection.
