Fitment questions
Will a door from an E46 BMW 3 Series fit my E90?
No — the E46 (1998–2006) and E90 (2005–2012) are completely different generations with different body structures, so their doors are not interchangeable. Always match the generation: E46 to E46, E90 to E90. A breaker will confirm the exact generation from your registration.
Does a pre-facelift E90 door fit a post-facelift E90?
The E90 ran from 2005 to 2012, with a facelift in 2008 — both sit within the same generation and the door aperture is the same, so a pre-facelift door will generally fit a post-facelift car. However, minor trim or moulding details can differ across that 2008 boundary, so confirm with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Do I need to tell the breaker whether I have a 4-door or 2-door 3 Series when buying a front door?
Yes, this is important — the front doors on a 2-door (coupe) 3 Series are longer than those on the 4-door (saloon) or 5-door (touring/estate), and they will not swap between body styles. Always tell the breaker your exact body style, and confirm NS (nearside, passenger side) or OS (offside, driver side) so they pull the correct door.
Does the trim level matter — for example, will an SE door fit my M Sport 3 Series?
Trim level — whether SE, Sport, M Sport, or M3 — does not affect whether the door frame itself fits, as the aperture is the same across the range within a generation. The difference you may notice is that M Sport or other trim variants can have different exterior mouldings, body-coloured strips, or door mirror styles, so the door may not look identical without some adjustment. Colour is never a fitment concern as doors can be resprayed, but confirm any mirror feature details (such as electric folding or indicator repeaters) directly with the breaker.
Does it matter which side I order — can I fit a driver's door on the passenger side?
No — NS (nearside, passenger/left) and OS (offside, driver/right) doors are handed and cannot be swapped. Always specify the correct side when getting a quote, using NS for the passenger side and OS for the driver's side, which is the standard convention UK breakers will recognise.
Will an E90 saloon door fit an E91 Touring (estate)?
The E90 saloon and E91 Touring share the same generation (2005–2012) but have different rear door apertures, so rear doors are not interchangeable between those two body styles. Front doors are more likely to be shared, but this is not guaranteed, so check with the breaker quoting against both your registration and the donor vehicle's body style before confirming.
