Purpose and body fitment

The presented fender is designed specifically for Mercedes W169 class models and is intended for installation in the front – left side area. The original construction ensures proper body line alignment and correct fitment with the hood, bumper, headlight, and driver's door, which is important for both aerodynamics and protection against corrosion and the ingress of debris into the wheel arch cavity.

Color and paint finish

The fender is in the Kometgrau Comet Grey Metallic - 748 color, which corresponds to the factory shade used by the manufacturer. As a result, this component provides an advantageous base for post-accident and restoration repairs – in many cases, it allows for limiting the scope of paint work to local blending rather than a full repaint of the entire panel. The metallic coating promotes visual consistency with other body components in the same paint code.

Technical characteristics and installation

The fender belongs to the group of structural outer skin components responsible for covering the wheel, guiding the wheel arch edge, and properly securing inner liners and covers. Original mounting points allow for installation in factory locations without the need for modifications, which facilitates bodywork and reduces repair time. The component is prepared to work with the standard brackets, supports, and moldings used in the given body model.

Condition and service application

As a used part, the fender is an economical solution for post-accident repairs, bodywork corrections, and restoring the vehicle to a near-factory condition. Using an original component from the same model line reduces the risk of issues with geometry, panel gaps, and compatibility with factory accessories, which is particularly important in the case of precisely fitted Mercedes bodies.

Support in selection and wheel arch area expansion

When performing body repairs, it is worth paying attention to the consistency of the entire wheel arch area – from the fender to the inner liners and mounting elements. If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the front wheel arch area in your Mercedes and need other components from the same group, such as additional body panels, wheel arch liners, or compatible mounts, check the available parts in the Mercedes front fenders category.
