Used BMW i4 Bonnet

The BMW i4 is a single-generation model launched in 2021, so bonnets from any 2021-onwards i4 are generally from the same platform. However, BMW introduced a facelift for the i4 in 2024, which brought changes to the front end including the grille area and lighting. Bonnets from pre-facelift (2021–2023) cars should interchange with other pre-facelift i4s, and the same applies within the facelifted range. Whether a pre-facelift bonnet fits a post-facelift car (or vice versa) is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration before buying.

This question spans the 2024 facelift boundary, where BMW updated the i4's front-end styling. Bonnets from a 2022 pre-facelift car and a 2024 facelifted car may differ in panel shape, shut lines or fixings. You should confirm directly with the breaker whether the specific panel interchanges across that boundary, quoting your full registration number.

For the BMW i4, trim level — whether that's eDrive35, eDrive40 or M50 — does not affect bonnet fitment, as the front-end panel is shared across the range within the same generation and facelift period. That said, higher trims like the M50 may have different bonnet badges or air vent styling, so be aware there could be minor cosmetic differences on the used part you receive. Generation and facelift period are what matter here, not the trim badge.

The i4 shares its platform with the G26 4 Series Gran Coupe, and the bodywork including the bonnet is understood to be shared between them. However, this is the kind of cross-model fitment detail you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing, as trim or specification differences between the two cars could affect the exact panel supplied.

The bonnet panel itself is not affected by which headlight variant the donor car had, as the bonnet is the same pressing regardless of headlight type. However, the headlight apertures and surrounding panels on the donor car may differ, so it is worth checking with the breaker that the bonnet you are buying was not cut or modified around the headlight area. The bonnet fitment is generation and facelift dependent, not headlight dependent.

Provide the breaker with your full registration number so they can verify the exact model year and facelift status of your i4, as the 2024 facelift marks the key fitment boundary for front-end panels. Within the same facelift period, bonnets are shared across the i4 range regardless of drivetrain or trim level. Always confirm the part visually or via part number with the breaker before committing, as fitment cannot be guaranteed on used parts.
