Purpose and fitment

The presented rear bumper has been designed specifically for the Mercedes W207 series models, taking into account the body geometry and mounting points characteristic of this chassis. Its placement in the rear zone of the vehicle means the component integrates with the factory reinforcements, brackets, and mounting hardware intended for this generation. The Obsidian Black Metallic – 197 color allows for visual consistency with the original paint, which limits the scope of potential paintwork required and facilitates restoring the vehicle to a uniform appearance after accident repairs or upgrades.

Technical and functional characteristics

The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and reinforcements category, meaning it serves both an aesthetic and structural function in the rear part of the body. The shape and profile are matched to the W207 body lines, ensuring that after proper installation, it is possible to achieve even gaps and a stable fit relative to the fenders, trunk lid, and other body panels. The component is prepared for use with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation in a workshop environment. The properly selected geometry allows for correct load distribution in the rear zone, in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.

Condition and use in repairs

The product is used, making it an attractive solution for accident repairs, restorations, or replacing a damaged bumper in daily-driven vehicles. Choosing an original pre-owned component allows you to maintain the factory characteristics of the body while optimizing service costs. The rear bumper in Obsidian Black Metallic is suitable for both spot repairs and more extensive body and paint work, where maintaining color consistency and proper fitment with the existing body structure is essential.

Benefits of using an original bumper

• Factory fitment for the W207 body, with no need for structural modifications.
• Color consistency thanks to the Obsidian Black Metallic – 197 paint.
• Suitable for use in professional accident repairs and restorations.
• Time-saving installation due to the manufacturer-intended placement in the rear zone of the vehicle.
