Purpose and function of the component

The presented fuel filler flap is dedicated to the rear body section of the BMW X5 E70 and is responsible for covering the fuel filler neck and aesthetically completing the vehicle's side line. As a component from the Fuel filler flaps and caps category, it provides protection for the filler housing against dirt and weather conditions, while maintaining visual consistency with the rest of the body panels.

Color and paint matching

The flap is finished in the factory Alpinweiss 3 – 300 color, characteristic of many BMW X5 E70 models. Thanks to this, when properly matched to a specific vehicle, it is possible to reduce or completely eliminate the need for repainting in this shade, which shortens repair time and reduces costs. At the same time, color consistency with other body elements in this shade is maintained.

Installation characteristics

The placement on the vehicle defined as rear means that the component works with the standard fuel filler recess in the BMW X5 E70. The flap's design is prepared for installation at factory mounting points, which facilitates work for a body shop or a service center specializing in the BMW brand. The used nature of the part allows for an economical repair while maintaining original geometry and fitment.

Condition and service application

The component comes from disassembly and is offered as a used part, which is a beneficial solution for post-accident repairs, bodywork corrections, or replacing a damaged flap after acts of vandalism. Its original origin promotes proper fitment to the body, and the preserved Alpinweiss 3 – 300 paint makes it easier to restore the vehicle to full functionality and a consistent appearance.
