Purpose and Fitment

The door moulding has been specifically designed for W245 series models, taking into account the geometry of the front left door. Its placement on the vehicle is clearly defined, which simplifies selecting the correct part during post-accident repairs or restorations.

Thanks to its construction in line with Mercedes factory standards, the part maintains the correct body lines, minimizes the risk of leaks, and ensures proper alignment with other door panels.

Cosmos Black Metallic Colour and Finish

The moulding is finished in Cosmos Black Metallic - 191, allowing for consistency with the vehicle's original paint in this shade. The metallic coating provides a characteristic depth of colour and harmonizes well with the body's styling lines.

This finish is particularly beneficial for:

• local repairs after parking damage,
• visual refresh of the vehicle without the need to interfere with the entire door surface,
• maintaining the car's factory appearance while ensuring colour matching.

Characteristics of a Used Part

The door moulding comes from the used body parts segment, offering a sensible compromise between repair cost and maintaining original structural quality. This type of component is a good choice for operational repairs where fitment and compliance with factory solutions are key.

Choosing an original, used moulding helps to reduce the risk of assembly problems typical of lower-precision aftermarket replacements, while also maintaining the correct door line and the aesthetics of the vehicle's side body.

Application in Body Repairs

The part is suitable for bodywork and paint shops, as well as for individual users undertaking:

• replacement of a damaged moulding after a collision or scrape,
• restoration of the vehicle's original appearance after previous repairs,
• completion of missing decorative door elements.

Thanks to its precise fit for the front left door, installation is straightforward, without the need for modifications to the door structure or interference with adjacent panels.
