At Global Parts, you'll find a wide selection of used car parts. for bumpers, perfectly matched to BMW , Audi , Volkswagen , Mercedes , Mini and many others .
Definition and functions of a car bumper
A car bumper is a body component mounted on the front and rear of a vehicle. Its primary function is to absorb energy from minor impacts and protect key components such as the radiator, headlights, and exhaust system. According to European standards, a bumper should withstand a collision at speeds up to 4 km/h without significant structural damage. In practice, this means that even a minor parking lot collision doesn't necessarily require a costly repair of the entire front end of the vehicle.
What items are included in bumpers and parts?
Bumpers and their components are a set of components that serve both protective and aesthetic purposes. Key elements include:
- Front and rear bumpers – Protects the front and rear of the vehicle from damage during minor collisions.
- Grilles and air intakes – Provide adequate airflow to cool the engine and increase the vehicle’s aerodynamics.
- Underbody and wheel arch guards – Protect the underbody from mud, water and stones that could damage other parts of the car.
- Brackets and handles – They hold the bumpers in the correct position, ensuring their stability.
- Bumpers and reinforcements – They are responsible for absorbing impact energy during a collision, reducing the risk of damage to other body parts.
- Bumper inserts and covers – They provide additional protection for the bumper structure and improve its aesthetics and aerodynamics. Each of these components must be precisely matched to the vehicle model to ensure the perfect combination of protection and aesthetics.
Compatibility and fit for models
Bumper selection varies depending on the vehicle make and model. For example:
- BMW E90 M bumpers package They have different mountings and embossing than the standard versions, which affects the appearance and aerodynamics of the car.
