Technical Specifications: 51117159597 Grille Cover

Material Engineering

High-impact ABS composite withstands -40°C to 120°C operational temperatures. The chrome-plated surface undergoes 72-hour salt spray testing without corrosion. Flexible polymer framework absorbs vibration energy up to 35Hz frequency. All mounting points feature stainless steel reinforcement inserts for repeated installations.

Aerodynamic Design

Computational fluid dynamics-optimized mesh pattern reduces air turbulence by 22% at highway speeds. The 6mm aperture size balances airflow and particle filtration. Radius-edged vanes minimize wind noise generation above 80km/h. The concave profile matches factory bumper curvature within ±1.5mm tolerance.

Vehicle Compatibility Details

Direct fit for 2007-2014 BMW X5 E70 LCI models including xDrive35d, xDrive50i, and M Performance variants. Compatible with X6 E71/E72 coupes produced between 2008-2014.
