Purpose and body fitment

The presented fender is designed as a component of the front right body section, ensuring proper alignment with the hood, bumper, and passenger door edges. Thanks to a design consistent with factory specifications, key mounting points, embossing geometry, and contact lines with other body panels are preserved, facilitating precise installation and correct fitment.

Its original origin from the Mercedes brand means that the fender is designed for the specific W204 body, taking into account requirements regarding rigidity, crumple zone performance, and compatibility with factory mounting hardware.

Alabandine Grey Metallic - 779 color and visual aspect

The Alabandine Grey Metallic - 779 finish allows for an aesthetic replacement of the component without the need for immediate, full repainting of the entire side of the vehicle, provided that the remaining panels are in the same shade. The metallic coating provides a characteristic depth of color and blends well with the styling lines of premium mid-size models.

For body shops, using the factory color means easier shade matching when blending adjacent elements, and for the user – a consistent, orderly appearance of the vehicle after repair.

Characteristics of the used OEM component

The fender comes from the original used parts segment, which in practice means maintaining factory geometry, correct mounting points, and compliance with the manufacturer's documentation. Compared to aftermarket replacements, the OEM component fits the body lines better, reduces the need for additional adjustments, and minimizes the risk of issues with panel gap alignment.

The condition defined as Used is a favorable compromise between repair costs and maintaining high structural quality, especially in the case of premium class cars, where a new original part can be significantly more expensive.

Installation zone and service aspects

The placement of the fender in the front - right area makes it a component frequently exposed to parking damage, low-speed collisions, or corrosion in the wheel arch area. Replacing it with an original panel helps restore proper protection for suspension mechanisms, the wheel arch, and bumper mounting elements.

For service centers and workshops, it is important that the product belongs to the Front wings category, which facilitates repair planning in combination with other elements in this zone, such as the bumper, wheel arch liner, or trim strips.

Identification and vehicle compatibility

The product has assigned technical markings, including the OEM part number, as well as relevant interchangeable numbers, which allow for precise verification of compatibility with a specific W204 body version. Additionally, in the store system, the item is identified by its SKU, which facilitates order processing and communication with the technical department.
