Intended Use and Fitment

The fender presented has been specifically designed for Mercedes W204 models, intended for the front left side of the vehicle. Its original construction ensures proper alignment with the hood, bumper, door, and wheel arch, facilitating precise installation and minimizing the need for additional bodywork adjustments.

The placement on the vehicle is factory-defined, allowing the part to integrate seamlessly with standard mounting points, brackets, and covers, while maintaining correct panel gaps.

Feueropal Fire Opal Red – 590 Color

The fender is finished in the original Feueropal Fire Opal Red – 590 color, characteristic of many Mercedes W204 body configurations. For owners whose vehicles are in the same shade, this offers potential savings in time and cost associated with a full repaint, as it may only require minor touch-ups to match the current condition of the car's paintwork.

The uniform color of the panel also simplifies the painter's work when blending adjacent elements, contributing to a consistent visual effect across the entire side of the vehicle.

Technical and Functional Characteristics

This fender belongs to the Front Fenders category, meaning it is responsible for protecting the front wheel, directing airflow, and shielding the wheel well from dirt and water. The panel's design is adapted to standard wheel arches, trim pieces, and mounting hardware, facilitating integration with other body components.

The part has a specific weight, determined by the manufacturer to maintain an optimal balance between rigidity and the vehicle's overall mass. This ensures the fender does not negatively impact the suspension's performance or the weight distribution in the front of the car.

Condition and Benefits of Using a Used Part

The offered fender is a used part, which translates to significant economic benefits while retaining the original manufacturer's specifications. For many Mercedes W204 owners, this is a sensible choice for post-accident repairs or restorations, allowing for cost reduction without compromising factory fitment.

Utilizing an original body panel helps maintain the correct front-end geometry of the vehicle, which is important for both aesthetics and the proper installation of headlights, the bumper, and wheel arch covers.

Technical Support and Additional Information

The product is associated with OEM part numbers and interchangeable numbers, which simplifies compatibility verification with specific equipment versions and vehicle model years. If necessary, these numbers can be cross-referenced with service documentation or the manufacturer's catalog to confirm compatibility with your specific Mercedes W204 model.
