Purpose and body fitment

The presented rear bumper is designed specifically for installation in the rear body section of Mercedes W204 models in the AMG version. The construction corresponds to factory mounting points, which facilitates proper alignment with the fenders, trunk lid, and other body panels. This makes it possible to restore the original body line without the need for bodywork modifications.

Its placement in the rear zone means this component serves both a protective and aesthetic function. The bumper is an important component of the energy absorption system during minor parking collisions, while also influencing the visual perception of the entire rear section of the vehicle.

Paint finish and Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 color

The Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 color is a popular, dark metallic shade used in Mercedes models, which complements the AMG styling package particularly well. The metallic structure of the paint highlights the bumper's contours, and the proper color match allows for a seamless blend with other body elements in the same color.

For body shops and end users, this means easier visual matching to the vehicle's existing paint, which minimizes the scope of any necessary paint work or allows for precise planning.

Characteristics of the used component

The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and reinforcements category and is a used part, which in practice represents a favorable compromise between repair costs and maintaining the original body structure. A used component allows for an economical reconstruction of the rear of the vehicle while maintaining the proper shape and factory geometry.

Choosing an original, used AMG bumper is particularly beneficial in the case of post-accident repairs, where compliance with the factory design, proper body line alignment, and the ability to install without interfering with the vehicle's structure are essential.

Application in service and visual tuning

This AMG rear bumper will work well both in standard post-accident repairs and in the visual modernization of W204 models from versions without the AMG package. In both cases, it is crucial to maintain proper installation, use factory mounting points, and ensure compatibility with the existing body configuration.

The element can be used by professional body shops, independent workshops, and individual users who are planning to refresh the rear of the vehicle or replace a damaged bumper with an original component from the AMG line.
