Technical Characteristics and Purpose

The presented rear bumper has been specifically designed for the Mercedes W176 AMG version, taking into account factory mounting points and the geometry of the vehicle's rear. Its placement on the vehicle, specified as the rear, ensures that the component works with the original reinforcements, beam, and other body components of this generation.

The South Seas Blue Metallic - 162 color is a metallic paint with a distinct yet subtle hue that complements the AMG line and emphasizes the car's sporty character. The bumper belongs to the Bumpers and Reinforcements group, meaning it serves both an aesthetic and structural function within the rear body section.

Benefits of Using an Original Mercedes Bumper

Choosing an original AMG rear bumper for the W176 allows for stylistic and technical consistency with other body elements. Thanks to the factory design:

• proper alignment with the fender line, trunk lid, and rear lights is ensured,
• compatibility with factory mounting points and reinforcements is maintained,
• predictable performance of the component under typical operating conditions is preserved.

The product comes from the Mercedes line, which for many users means maintaining uniform quality of workmanship and compliance with the manufacturer's service documentation. The used nature of the part allows for economical replacement of the body component while maintaining the vehicle's original specifications.

Condition, Material, and Installation Aspects

The bumper is offered as a used part, which in practice means it has undergone use in a vehicle but is still suitable for further use after proper installation. The design intended for the rear body section allows for installation in place of the original part without the need for structural modifications to the car body.

The weight specified in the technical data facilitates transport planning and installation organization in workshop conditions. By maintaining the original geometry, the bumper can be used for both post-accident repairs and for restoring the car's factory appearance after localized paint damage.

AMG Aesthetics and Body Cohesion

The AMG version of the rear bumper for the W176 features a more dynamic line than standard variants, which affects the perception of the entire vehicle silhouette. The South Seas Blue Metallic - 162 paint provides a characteristic metallic effect that looks good in both daylight and artificial light. Using an original part allows for maintaining the continuity of the shade and finish character on the rear body section after any paintwork is done.
