Purpose and fitment

The presented door card is designed for installation in the rear left section of the vehicle's interior, in the area of the rear passenger side panel. The component's construction is specifically engineered for the BMW convertible body, ensuring:

• proper fitment with the bodywork and adjacent panels,
• preservation of the factory interior design lines,
• compatibility with original mounting points.

As a result, this door card can be used both for replacing a damaged component and for visually refreshing the interior after intensive use.

Construction and upholstery material

The upholstery is made of durable fabric, selected for its resistance to daily wear and its match with other BMW interior elements. The use of textile material ensures:

• comfortable contact for rear passengers,
• stable shape retention of the panel over long-term use,
• easier visual matching with original seats and other door cards.

The fabric structure has been developed to minimize the visibility of typical signs of wear, which helps maintain the cabin's aesthetics at a high level.

Characteristics of the used component

As a used OEM part, the door card retains its original geometry and compatibility with factory BMW solutions. In practice, this means:

• no need for mounting modifications or trimming,
• compliance with factory assembly tolerances,
• possibility of installation in place of the old panel as part of standard service work.

This type of solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, replacement after mechanical damage, or during the gradual restoration of the vehicle's interior.

Benefits of using original upholstery

Using an original door card in a BMW E88 Cabrio allows for maintaining the stylistic and technical consistency of the interior. Key advantages include:

• factory fitment to the door structure and side body section,
• preservation of the original BMW cabin character,
• ability to restore aesthetics after wear or damage to the previous component.

This approach is particularly important for users who want to keep the vehicle in a configuration close to factory condition, without using aftermarket parts with uncertain fitment.
