Its placement on the vehicle is designated as the rear, making it a direct replacement for the original lid fitted on the production line.

Original sourcing from the Mercedes brand promotes proper alignment with the bumper, taillights, seals, and hinges, facilitating body and paint work and minimizing the need for additional modifications.

Color and Paint Finish

The trunk lid is finished in Schwarz Black - 040, allowing for visual consistency with the vehicle's bodywork painted in the same shade. For body and paint shops, this means the possibility of reducing the scope of paint work or easier shade matching during any potential coating refresh.

The Schwarz Black - 040 black paint complements the styling of the Mercedes W213, emphasizing the elegant character of the bodywork and facilitating a uniform appearance of the vehicle's rear after repair.

Characteristics of a Used Part

The trunk lid is a used part, which in practice means real cost savings on repairs while maintaining the original body structure. This type of component is particularly beneficial for collision repairs where restoring the correct rear geometry and trunk functionality is a priority.

A used body part allows for:

• maintaining factory mounting points and guides,
• easier integration with the existing body structure,
• reduced costs compared to new OEM parts.

Application in Repairs and Upgrades

The Mercedes W213 trunk lid in Schwarz Black - 040 is suitable for both professional body and paint shops, as well as workshops specializing in comprehensive collision repairs. The part can be used for:

• repairing rear vehicle damage after a collision,
• restoring full functionality of the trunk closure and seal,
• recreating the original body appearance after previous, improper repairs.

Thanks to its factory construction, the lid provides a solid foundation for further assembly work, such as installing the lock, actuators, trim strips, or license plate lighting, according to the specific vehicle configuration.
