Purpose and Function of the Rear Bumper

The presented rear bumper is designed as a body part installed on the rear of the car, responsible for absorbing energy in minor collisions and for maintaining the correct body line. Thanks to its construction compliant with Mercedes' factory standards, the correct body geometry is preserved, as well as the possibility of proper installation of other rear components of the car.

Its placement on the rear of the vehicle allows for the restoration of full crash zone functionality after parking or collision damage, without the need for replacement solutions with uncertain fit.

Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 Paint Color and Matching

The bumper is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic - 197, a popular color from Mercedes' premium paint palette. The metallic black provides a deep, elegant shade that pairs well with chrome and dark body elements.

This finish can often limit the scope of painting work to only potential touch-ups, reducing repair time and making it easier to restore a cohesive look to the entire rear of the vehicle. For body and paint shops, this means a more predictable installation and finishing process.

Technical Characteristics and Installation

The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and Reinforcements group, meaning it is designed to work with the factory mounting points in the Mercedes body. The design of the part allows for correct seating on original brackets and integration with other rear components of the vehicle, such as reinforcements, mounts, or trim pieces.

The product is intended for installation in the rear body zone, allowing for the restoration of proper crash protection and vehicle aesthetics after damage. The used nature of the part makes it a cost-effective solution while maintaining original geometry and compatibility with the car's structure.

Condition of the Part and Service Application

The bumper is offered as a used part, making it a practical choice for accident repairs, restorations, or bringing the car back to a technically sound condition after body damage. This type of component is particularly useful in situations where preserving the original structure and fit is a priority, while also limiting costs compared to a new part.

This solution is suitable for both professional body and paint shops, as well as workshops specializing in Mercedes repairs, where assembly consistency and compliance with factory standards are crucial.
