Purpose and Body Fitment

The presented fender is a body part from the Wheel Arches and Rear Fenders group, but it is structurally designed as a side panel mounted on the front right side of the vehicle. Its placement on the vehicle, specified as front – right side, ensures proper alignment with the headlight, bumper, and hood, which is important for both the aesthetics and aerodynamics of the car.

Original origin from the Mercedes brand means retaining factory stampings, edges, and geometry, which facilitates installation and subsequent adjustment of gaps between body elements. As a result, the panel does not require additional bodywork modifications after installation, and the body line remains consistent with the rest of the vehicle.

Polar Silver Metallic - 761 Color and Installation Benefits

The fender is finished in Polar Silver Metallic - 761, one of the popular shades used in Mercedes models. For the user and the workshop, this means the possibility of:

• limiting the scope of painting to potential spot repairs,
• easier shade matching to other body elements,
• reducing the preparation time for the vehicle after body repair.

The metallic paint finish ensures a consistent look with the factory finish, and the properly prepared surface of the fender allows for further finishing work in accordance with the standards of body and paint shops.
