Installation is straightforward for an experienced mechanic or body shop technician, without requiring any modifications to the door structure.

Tiefseeblau Metallic - A76 Color and Finish

The handle is finished in Tiefseeblau Metallic - A76, a color characteristic of BMW's paint palette. The metallic finish ensures consistency with the factory body paint, reducing the need for additional painting when replacing the part. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs where both technical correctness and visual continuity of the body lines are important.

Technical Characteristics of the Handle

As a component from the Door Handles group, the handle is responsible for ergonomic and repeatable door opening, while also being a visible part of the vehicle's exterior trim. The design intended for rear right side installation ensures:

• correct force transfer during door opening,
• stable seating in the panel,
• maintenance of the characteristic styling line of the BMW F20 LCI.

Thanks to the use of original geometry, the handle works seamlessly with factory locks and linkages, minimizing the risk of closing issues or play after installation.

Condition of the Part and Application in Repairs

The handle is offered as a used part, making it an attractive option for economical body repairs. In practice, this allows for:

• reduced replacement costs compared to a new part,
• preservation of the original BMW finish character,
• color consistency in localized repairs.

This solution is particularly beneficial for repairing daily-driven vehicles where functionality, correct fitment, and a reasonable repair budget are priorities.
