The trim is finished in the Karmesinrot - A61 color, characteristic of selected BMW 1 Series paint configurations. This allows you to:

• minimize color discrepancies between the roof and the trim, improving the overall appearance of the vehicle,
• preserve the original styling character of the body, consistent with the factory configuration.

For users who pay attention to visual details, this is a practical solution for aesthetically completing the roofline without altering the body structure.

• maintaining the continuity of the roofline, which is important both visually and aerodynamically.

As a used part, the trim offers a functional solution for repairs where compliance with the original BMW construction and cost-effective replacement are priorities.
