Purpose and placement on the vehicle

The presented wing is designed for installation on the front right side of the body, in the wheel arch area. It is responsible for maintaining the correct body lines, protecting the engine compartment and the wheel arch from water, mud, and minor mechanical damage. Thanks to its factory shape, it ensures proper fitment with the hood, bumper, and doors, which is important for both aerodynamics and the visual consistency of the entire side of the vehicle.

Color Kosmos Black Metallic - 191

The finish in Kosmos Black Metallic - 191 is a dark, metallic paint characteristic of many Mercedes body configurations. This shade helps to limit the scope of paintwork required – in many cases, polishing and potential local blending are sufficient instead of full painting of the component. The metallic structure of the paint improves light reflection and helps maintain a consistent look with the remaining body panels.

Characteristics of the used component

The wing comes from a used vehicle, which means it is a pre-owned part that retains its factory geometry and mounting holes. This type of component is a cost-effective solution for post-accident repairs when the priority is to combine the quality of an original component with a reasonable cost. A used wing allows for maintaining the correct body lines without the need to adjust aftermarket replacements with different geometry.

Application in body repairs

Replacing the front right wing is crucial in situations where damage has occurred in the area of the wheel arch, door edge, or bumper. Using an original element from the Front wings group facilitates the work of the body shop and painter, shortens the fitting time, and minimizes the risk of leaks in the joint areas. This is particularly important for maintaining correct panel gaps and for subsequent adjustment of the door and hood alignment.
