• restoring a vehicle's original appearance after previous modifications.

Installation of this part, thanks to its factory mounting points, is straightforward for body shops and workshops specializing in the Mercedes brand. Correct placement on the vehicle (front, right side) minimizes the risk of selecting the wrong part.

Why Choose an Original Mercedes Bumper Grille
