Using the original shade makes it easier to match the existing paintwork and reduces the scope of additional painting work.

The main advantages of this bracket include:

• suitability for accident repairs and restorations,
• maintaining visual consistency with Estoril Blau Metallic paint.

Condition and Application in Repairs

As a used part, it can be an attractive alternative to new components, especially for several-year-old vehicles and restoration projects where reasonable cost while maintaining original BMW specifications is important.

Compatibility and Part Selection

Technical parameters, including part numbers and supersessions, are detailed in the specifications section and allow verification of the fit for a given car.
