Purpose and fitment

The presented rear bumper has been designed specifically for the Mercedes A-Class W169 body in the Classic Standard version, which translates into precise fitment to factory mounting points. Its placement at the rear of the vehicle allows for the restoration of the original body geometry, maintaining correct panel gaps, and ensuring proper alignment of the side lines and the tailgate.

Its original Mercedes origin promotes compatibility with factory design solutions, which facilitates installation and reduces the need for additional bodywork or painting modifications.

Color and paint finish

The bumper is finished in Polar Silver Metallic, identified by paint code 761, characteristic of many Mercedes A-Class W169 units. The metallic paint coating provides an aesthetic, understated look that blends well with both light and dark body accents.

For users who own a vehicle in the same shade, such a component can significantly reduce the scope of paintwork – in many cases, standard preparation and polishing are sufficient to achieve a consistent visual effect with the rest of the bodywork.

Technical and structural characteristics

The rear bumper belongs to the Bumpers and reinforcements group, meaning it serves as an external cover for the rear part of the body and works in conjunction with structural reinforcement elements. The design is adapted to the standard mounting points in the Mercedes W169, which simplifies service work and reduces replacement time.

The component has a specific weight that complies with the manufacturer's factory specifications, ensuring it does not negatively affect the vehicle's weight distribution or suspension performance. As a used part, the bumper represents a reasonable compromise between repair costs and maintaining the vehicle's original specifications.

Condition, origin, and service application

The product comes from the Mercedes brand and is classified as a used component, making it an attractive solution for post-accident repairs, visual corrections, or restoring the car to a near-factory state. This type of component is particularly useful in situations where the rear part of the body has been damaged, and the priority is to maintain the original styling line and compatibility with factory mounts.

Thanks to the maintenance of the OEM standard, it is possible to use existing mounting points, which facilitates workshop work and reduces the risk of fitment issues with the bodywork.
