51137124815 Kidney Grille: Silver Electroplated Upgrade
Optimized for the BMW X5 E53 series, the 51137124815 Kidney Grille features precision-engineered silver electroplating with advanced corrosion resistance. The three-dimensional lattice structure maintains factory airflow rates while enhancing frontal aesthetics. Reinforced ABS polymer construction ensures dimensional stability across -40°C to 120°C temperature ranges. Direct bolt-on replacement requires no trimming or modification, preserving original mounting points and sensor alignment. The chrome-grade surface treatment undergoes 7-layer polishing for permanent luster retention under UV exposure.


Technical Specifications: 51137124815 Kidney Grille
Material Engineering
High-density ABS substrate with nickel-chromium electroplating achieves 500-hour salt spray certification. The 0.8mm thick surface coating prevents micro-cracking during thermal expansion. Injection-molded mounting tabs feature stainless steel inserts for repeated installation cycles. The open-cell design reduces air turbulence by 22% compared to solid grilles.
Design Integration
CAD-optimized curvature matches E53 hood lines within 1.5mm tolerance. The 12x10x10cm dimensions ensure proper radiator coverage without airflow restriction. Pre-installed vibration dampeners reduce harmonic resonance by 65% at highway speeds. The non-conductive finish prevents galvanic corrosion with aluminum components.
Vehicle Compatibility Details
Designed for 1996-2006 BMW X5 E53 models including 3.0i, 4.4i, and 4.8is variants. Compatible with both left and right grille positions on pre-LCI (1996-2003) and LCI (2004-2006) facelift models. Fits vehicles with factory parking sensors when using original wiring harnesses. Suitable replacement for OEM part numbers 51137124815/51137124816 and aftermarket reference BM1200159.
