Intended Use and Fitment for BMW i3 I01 LCI

The presented rear bumper has been specifically designed for the facelifted BMW i3 I01 model, intended for the rear of the vehicle. The construction is prepared for compatibility with the PDC (parking sensors) system, allowing for the preservation of the factory parking assistance system's functionality without the need for installation modifications.

Thanks to the use of original mounting geometry, the bumper ensures proper alignment with other body elements such as the tailgate and side panels. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs or replacement of damaged parts, where precise fitment and stable mountings are crucial.

Melbourne Red Metallic - A75 Color and Finish

The factory Melbourne Red Metallic - A75 color is a characteristic metallic red shade used by BMW, which complements the modern body line and contrasting stylistic elements of the i3 model. Using the original metallic paint reduces the need for additional painting when replacing the bumper on a vehicle of the same color, speeding up the repair process and lowering service costs.

The metallic finish enhances the visual depth of the color and highlights the bumper's contours, which is important for both aesthetic appeal and maintaining a cohesive look for the entire body. For users who care about their vehicle's appearance, this is a practical solution that allows for maintaining a uniform color without visible shade differences.

Technical Characteristics and Installation

The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and Reinforcements group, meaning it serves as an external cover for the rear of the vehicle and works with structural elements responsible for energy absorption in minor collisions. Its placement in the rear zone of the vehicle requires appropriate rigidity and compatibility with factory mounting points.

The product has a specified weight, which is important for planning transportation and installation in workshop conditions. The design intended for PDC compatibility allows for the correct seating of parking sensors, enabling the functionality of the obstacle warning system behind the vehicle. This ensures that after bumper replacement, the maneuvering assistance system can operate similarly to its factory state.

Item Condition and Practical Application

The offered bumper is a used part, making it an attractive alternative to new parts for BMW i3 body repairs. This type of solution is often chosen by workshops and individual users who want to reduce service costs while maintaining the vehicle's original specifications. A used body part allows for restoring the full functionality of the rear of the car, including the operation of parking sensors.

In practice, this type of bumper is suitable for both post-accident repairs and replacement due to wear and tear. Maintaining the factory color and preparation for PDC simplifies installation and reduces the scope of additional bodywork and painting.

Part Selection and Additional Information

When selecting a bumper for a specific BMW i3 I01 LCI model, it is important to check for body version compatibility, the presence of the PDC system, and the paint color. The product has assigned part numbers and interchangeable numbers, which facilitates compatibility verification with a specific vehicle in manufacturer catalogs or service systems.
