Purpose and Function of the Wiper Arm Cover

The rear wiper arm cover for the BMW F20/F21 series is responsible for protecting the critical connection between the wiper arm and the wiper mechanism. This protection prevents:

• dirt and moisture from entering the mount,
• corrosion of moving parts,
• mechanical damage during vehicle washing or operation.

Thanks to its precise fit for the F-series hatchback body, the cover helps maintain a cohesive look for the rear of the car and stable wiper operation in challenging weather conditions.

Construction, Color, and Fit for BMW F20/F21

This part has been specifically designed for the rear wiper on the BMW F20 and F21, ensuring a proper fit with the wiper arm and the tailgate. The black color of the cover matches the factory styling of BMW's external wiper components, ensuring visual consistency with the wiper arm and other body details.

Its placement on the rear of the vehicle requires the cover to be resistant to frequent contact with water, cleaning agents, and fluctuating temperatures. The original BMW design has been developed with these factors in mind, promoting long-term, stable operation.

Product Characteristics and Condition

The offered rear wiper arm cover is a part from the BMW wiper arms group, originating from the manufacturer's genuine line. The product is used, which means it may show signs of previous use but retains the functionality necessary for correct installation and operation in the vehicle.

Choosing an original cover over an aftermarket replacement ensures a factory-like fit with the wiper arm, proper movement guidance, and alignment with the body lines. This is particularly important for external components that are constantly exposed to the elements.

• Compatibility with the wiper arm and tailgate of the F20/F21 series.
