Purpose and Body Fitment

The rear bumper is dedicated to the C117 body type, where it serves as an external cover for the rear of the vehicle, working in conjunction with structural elements and reinforcements. Thanks to its factory design, it maintains the correct geometry, which facilitates mounting to original attachment points and proper alignment with the trunk lid, lights, and side body panels.

Its placement on the vehicle in the rear body zone provides adequate external protection and an aesthetic finish to the vehicle's lines, without the need for additional structural modifications.

Color Scheme and Visual Aspect

The bumper is finished in the color Calcite White - 650, which allows for consistency with the vehicle's factory paint in this shade. For users who care about the appearance of their vehicle's body, this means the possibility of limiting the scope of painting work or simplifying it, especially for spot repairs and replacement of damaged parts.

The uniform, light color contributes to the aesthetic appeal of the entire rear of the car, and the use of an original body part makes it easier to maintain consistency with the manufacturer's styling line.

Characteristics of a Used Part

The presented rear bumper is a used part, which in practice means it may show signs of wear typical for parts removed from a vehicle. This type of component is a good choice for repairs where maintaining the original structure and fit is a priority, while optimizing costs compared to new body parts.

Choosing a used bumper from this series allows for the preservation of factory geometry, which is important for both correct installation and subsequent adjustment of gaps between body elements.

Benefits of Using an Original Bumper

Using an original rear bumper in Calcite White offers several practical benefits:

• maintaining the factory body line and compatibility with other body parts,
• easier installation due to alignment with original mounting points,
• color consistency with the vehicle's paint in the Calcite White - 650 shade,
• the possibility of limiting the scope of painting work for accident repairs.
