Technical characteristics and fitment

The rear bumper has been designed specifically for W213 series models with the AMG package, ensuring it maintains the correct geometry, mounting points, and compatibility with factory body components. Its placement in the rear zone of the vehicle allows for the restoration of the proper external structure after a collision or during a visual upgrade.

The original construction ensures proper force distribution in the event of an impact, as well as correct alignment with other rear body components, such as the trunk lid, lights, or trim strips. As a result, the bumper provides a solid base for further body and paint work.

Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 paint finish

The factory Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 color is a popular, elegant metallic black shade used in Mercedes models, which effectively masks minor dirt and highlights the body lines. The metallic structure of the paint provides an attractive play of light on the bumper surface, which is particularly visible in daylight conditions.

For paint shops and detailers, this means easier color matching to the rest of the body, and for the user – a consistent, aesthetic vehicle appearance after repair. Using the original shade reduces the need for full repainting of larger body sections.

Purpose, installation, and service application

This AMG rear bumper is intended for installation in the rear body zone, where it is responsible for protecting the vehicle's structure and providing an aesthetic finish to the body lines. The OEM design facilitates installation in service conditions – the mounting points are consistent with factory solutions, which reduces labor time and minimizes the risk of fitment issues.

The product is suitable for both post-accident repairs and visual upgrades of the car to AMG specifications. For body and paint shops, this is a practical solution that allows for maintaining compliance with factory body geometry and manufacturer standards.
