Purpose and function of the hinge

The presented hinge is responsible for the stable guidance and support of the trunk lid on the right side of the vehicle body. Its task is to ensure smooth opening and closing of the lid, proper maintenance of the lid geometry, and even load distribution during the operation of the actuators and vehicle usage.

Thanks to a design consistent with the manufacturer's standards, the hinge works with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and reduces the risk of improper fitment of the rear body components.

Estoril Blau Metallic – B45 color

The component is finished in Estoril Blau Metallic – B45 paint, characteristic of BMW's sports configurations. Using the original shade allows for a reduction in paintwork required when replacing the hinge, and in many cases, enables installation without the need to repaint the entire lid.

Selecting a hinge in the same color as the body helps maintain the visual consistency of the rear of the vehicle, which is important both for post-accident repairs and precise vehicle restoration.

Benefits of using an original BMW component

Using an original BMW trunk lid hinge translates into:

• maintaining the factory geometry of the lid opening and closing,
• proper cooperation with the actuators and the lid lock,
• color consistency with the body in the Estoril Blau Metallic – B45 shade,
• easier installation thanks to the fitment to factory mounting points.

This solution is particularly beneficial for repairs where both technical correctness and maintaining the original appearance of the vehicle are important.

Condition and service application

As a component from the Trunk lids and rear parts category, the hinge is suitable for post-collision repairs, replacing worn-out lid mechanism components, or reconstructing the rear of the body. It allows for the restoration of proper trunk lid operation without the need for vehicle structure modifications.
