Tailgate Hinge Purpose and Function

The presented hinge is the component responsible for the stable guidance and support of the rear tailgate on the right side of the vehicle. It is responsible for:

• controlled opening and closing movement of the tailgate,
• proper maintenance of body panel gap geometry,
• secure mounting of the tailgate to the vehicle's structural point.

Thanks to its construction in line with factory Mini standards, the hinge works with other tailgate mounting components, ensuring repeatable, predictable operation in daily use.

Cosmic Blue Metallic - B13 Color and Visual Matching

The Cosmic Blue Metallic - B13 finish allows for maintaining visual consistency of the body without the need for additional painting in case of repairs in the same shade. This is a particularly beneficial solution for:

• local repairs after minor collisions,
• replacing a single hinge after mechanical damage,
• maintaining the original appearance of the rear of the vehicle.

The factory color reduces the risk of shade differences between body parts, which positively impacts the final repair outcome.

Original Origin and Mounting Parameters

The hinge comes from the Mini manufacturer's range, which means maintaining factory geometry, mounting hole spacing, and surface contact shape. Thanks to this:

• installation proceeds in existing mounting points without modifications,
• the tailgate maintains correct alignment with the fenders and bumper,
• the component works with original gas springs, locks, and other hinges.

The product is offered as a used part, allowing for economical repair while maintaining the manufacturer's original technical specifications.

Application in Repairs and Upgrades

This tailgate hinge is suitable for both standard replacement of a damaged part and for more extensive bodywork, where maintaining factory reference points is crucial. It can be used in:

• post-accident repairs of the rear body section,
• restoring full tailgate functionality after deformation,
• restoration projects where originality is important.
