2021 BMW X3 M40i

The auction lists the primary damage as “Right Rear.” Stage 1 reports that visible evidence supports this claim, with substantial deformation, scuffing, a damaged bumper corner, and a missing right rear tail lamp. The 2021 BMW X3 has severe damage to the right rear quarter panel and wheel-arch area. The panel is extensively crumpled and deformed, with multiple paint scuffs and exposed lighter-colored marks. Deformation extends into the junction between the quarter panel and rear bumper, where creases, scraping, and separated panel edges are visible. The right rear bumper corner is deformed and scuffed, with an irregular opening and a lower section separated from the surrounding bumper. The right rear outer tail lamp is missing, leaving the mounting area and internal orange-colored components exposed. A detached red tail-lamp lens is also present on the ground; it has multiple cracks and a chipped lower edge. The provided findings concern visible exterior damage only. The condition of the underlying structure, wheel-arch components, suspension, sensors, wiring, exhaust system, and other mechanical or safety systems is not established and should be checked through a thorough physical inspection and diagnostic scan. Repairs may require replacement of the tail lamp and lens, bumper components, and significant quarter-panel and rear-body repairs, followed by alignment and inspection of related systems.
