Purpose and body fitment

The presented moulding is designed for installation on the front right door of Mercedes W164 models. Its placement on the vehicle has been factory-optimized for the shape of the door panel, ensuring proper adhesion to the metal and stable mounting at the original attachment points.

Using an original exterior moulding allows you to maintain correct gaps between body panels, which is important for both visual and operational reasons (reducing the risk of dirt and moisture accumulation in critical areas).

Color and surface finish

The moulding is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic, marked with paint code 197, which is characteristic of many Mercedes trim levels. The metallic coating ensures consistency with the factory body paint, facilitating the aesthetic replacement of a damaged part without the need for additional painting or with minimal correction required.

By maintaining the original structure and paint shade, the component fits well into the side line of the vehicle, restoring a uniform look to the door and sill area and reducing the visibility of previous damage or signs of body and paint repairs.

Protective and operational function

The door moulding plays an important protective role in daily vehicle use. It protects the lower and middle part of the door panel against:

• minor impacts (e.g., when opening doors in a parking lot),
• stone chips and scratches from mud and gravel,
• accelerated paint wear in the critical side area.

Using an original moulding from the Protective and decorative mouldings group allows you to maintain the appropriate level of body protection while preserving the factory character of the body finish.

Condition, origin, and benefits of use

The item comes from disassembly and is offered as a used part, which is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. Compared to non-factory replacements, this moulding ensures better fitment to the door shape, correct geometry, and compatibility with factory mounting points.

Choosing a used exterior moulding for your Mercedes W164 allows you to reduce repair costs after collisions or parking damage, while maintaining the visual consistency of the vehicle and preserving its market value.
