Purpose and fitment for the BMW F45 Active Tourer

The presented fuel filler flap has been designed specifically for the BMW F45 Active Tourer model, taking into account the geometry of the rear body section. This ensures proper alignment with the fender line, correct hinge operation, and compatibility with the factory opening and closing mechanism. As a result, the original functionality of the refueling area is maintained after installation, without the need for modifications or adjustments to the component.

Glacier Silber Metallic A83 color and body aesthetics

The Glacier Silber Metallic – A83 color is a popular shade of silver paint used by BMW, characterized by a subtle, elegant appearance and good visual resistance to dirt. Using a flap in the same paint code allows for reducing or completely eliminating the need for repainting the component after installation, which shortens repair time and reduces costs. At the same time, color consistency with the remaining body panels is maintained, which is important both for aesthetics and for the potential future resale of the vehicle.

Technical characteristics and installation

The fuel filler flap belongs to the Fuel filler covers and accessories group, responsible for protecting the filler neck from contaminants and ensuring the refueling area is properly closed. The component is intended for installation in the rear part of the vehicle, in place of the factory flap. The design provided by the manufacturer allows for installation based on the original mounting points, which facilitates service work and helps maintain factory gaps between body elements.

As a part from the same group of components, the flap works with the factory opening mechanism, hinge, and locking system, ensuring proper operation during daily use. The used nature of the product makes it a cost-effective solution while maintaining the original BMW specification.
