Intended Use and Fitment for Mercedes W219 CLS

The presented trunk lid has been specifically designed for the Mercedes W219 CLS model, taking into account its characteristic sloping rear body line. The part is mounted in the rear area of the vehicle, which is crucial for the sealing of the luggage compartment and the proper functioning of the lock and seals.

The original design ensures:

• maintenance of factory gaps between body panels,
• correct guidance of the lid relative to hinges and gas struts,
• compatibility with factory hardware mountings (lock, wiring harness, interior trim).

Obsidian Black Metallic – 197 Color and Aesthetic Qualities

The trunk lid is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic – 197, one of the popular shades used in higher-class Mercedes models. The metallic paint structure allows for a cohesive visual effect with other body parts in the same color, minimizing the scope of potential paintwork.

For owners of vehicles in this shade, this means:

• easier visual matching to the existing finish,
• preservation of the characteristic, elegant look of the CLS,
• potential reduction of paint renovation costs to local touch-ups.

Technical and Constructional Characteristics

The trunk lid belongs to the category of Bonnet/Hoods, which are body shell elements responsible for protecting and closing service and luggage compartments. The construction has been developed for appropriate rigidity to ensure stable hardware mounting and resistance to typical operational loads.

The part has a defined weight, which is important when selecting gas struts and hinges, as well as for transportation and installation. Thanks to the use of original geometry, it is possible to maintain the correct operation of the opening and closing mechanism without the need for modifications to factory mounting points.

Condition, Origin, and Service Application

The offered trunk lid is a used original Mercedes part, which in practice means maintaining factory dimensional and material specifications. This is a good service solution in case of mechanical damage, corrosion, or deformation of the existing lid, allowing for the restoration of the correct geometry of the rear body section.

The part is particularly suitable in situations where the priority is:

• restoring the vehicle's factory appearance after a collision,
• ensuring proper closing and sealing of the trunk,
• maintaining the original quality of workmanship characteristic of the Mercedes brand.

Practical Tips for Operation and Service
