Purpose and body fitment

The offered item is a complete front right door dedicated to the Mercedes-Benz S-Class W221 generation model, prepared for installation at factory mounting points. The construction maintains the original edge geometry, which facilitates achieving even gaps between the fender, rocker panel, and pillar, thereby helping to restore the proper rigidity of the side body section.

The placement on the vehicle on the front passenger side ensures compatibility with the factory hinge, lock, and window guide layout, which translates into stable mechanism operation and proper door closing after accident repairs or the replacement of a corroded component.

Obsidian Black Metallic paint finish

The door is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic with paint code 197, characteristic of luxury Mercedes-Benz configurations. The metallic coating gives the body an elegant, understated character and works well with chrome trim and styling elements typical of the S-Class.

For body and paint shops, this means the possibility of reducing the scope of painting work – with proper shade matching and surface preparation, repair time can be shortened and the costs of renovating the side body zone can be optimized.

Technical characteristics and installation

The door belongs to the Doors and door panels group, meaning it serves as a structural element responsible for both side protection and the proper guidance of the window and seals. The appropriately selected weight of the component helps maintain the vehicle's proper balance and does not excessively load the hinges, which is important for long-term operation.

The item is intended for installation in place of the factory component, while maintaining original mounting points. This allows the workshop to carry out the replacement in an orderly manner, without the need to interfere with the structure of the pillars or rocker panels, which is essential when repairing high-end vehicles.

Condition, application, and benefits of choosing a used part

The offered product is in used condition, making it an attractive cost-effective alternative to new body parts while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. For S-Class W221 owners, this means the ability to restore full door functionality and side body aesthetics without the need to invest in a new panel.

Choosing original used doors is particularly beneficial for accident repairs, fleet vehicle renovations, and restoration projects where compliance with the factory body line and preserving the model's character are paramount.
