Fitment on a used side skirt varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
The F22/F23 generation covers 2014 to 2021, and side skirts are shared across the range within that generation regardless of body style or engine. A facelift was introduced around 2017 which brought styling updates, so a pre-facelift skirt and a post-facelift skirt may differ in profile or finish — confirm with the breaker whether the part from their car matches your pre- or post-2017 build date. Never assume fitment without checking registration details against the donor vehicle.
The F22/F23 2 Series received a facelift around 2017, and while the platform is shared, body panel styling can change at that boundary. Whether a pre-2017 side skirt physically interchanges with a post-2017 one is something you should confirm with the breaker, quoting your registration and asking them to compare it against the donor vehicle's registration. Do not assume they are the same part without that check.
Trim level does not affect the underlying fitment of a side skirt to the car, but the styling and finish can differ visibly between trims — M Sport side skirts, for example, have a more aggressive lower body design compared to Sport or Luxury variants. If your car originally had M Sport side skirts, source from an M Sport donor to get a matching look; a non-M Sport skirt will fit the body but will look different. Ask the breaker to confirm which trim the donor vehicle was to make sure the style matches yours.
The F20/F21 1 Series and the F22/F23 2 Series are related but are distinct models with different body dimensions and lower body styling, so side skirts are not interchangeable between them. Always source a side skirt specific to the 2 Series and confirm the generation and facelift period matches your car. Using the donor vehicle's registration when speaking to the breaker is the most reliable way to verify the correct part.
Both 2015 and 2019 fall within the F22/F23 generation (2014–2021), but the facelift around 2017 means there is a styling boundary between them. Whether the OS or NS skirt from a pre-facelift 2015 car physically fits and looks correct on your post-facelift 2019 car is not something that can be confirmed without checking — raise this directly with the breaker and give them both registrations so they can compare the parts. If appearance matters to you, sourcing from a post-2017 donor is the safer starting point.
The F22 coupe and F23 convertible share the same platform and lower body architecture, and side skirts are generally consistent across both body styles within the generation. That said, confirm the specific part number with the breaker using both registrations to be certain, as minor differences can sometimes exist between body styles. Sticking to the same facelift period — pre- or post-2017 — remains the most important factor for a correct match.
