MERCEDES GLA 45 AMG II H247 AMG complete front package
For the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG (H247), the “Complete Front Package” is the most aggressive factory styling available for the compact performance SUV. This package is frequently used for converting the GLA 35 or a standard AMG Line (Code 772) model into the full 45 S 4MATIC+ aesthetic.
1. The Panamericana Grille
The hallmark of the H247 GLA 45 is the AMG-specific radiator grille.
-
Design: Features vertical chrome or high-gloss black struts that broaden toward the bottom, inspired by the AMG GT family.
-
Versions: Available in Classic Chrome or the Night Package II (Black Chrome) for a more sinister look.
-
Integration: The package includes the necessary housing for the Mercedes star and is pre-configured with a bracket for the 360° Front Camera (Code 501) and DISTRONIC radar support.
2. AMG Front Apron & Aerodynamics
The GLA 45 front bumper is wider and more complex than the standard AMG Line.
-
Air Intakes: Large, functional side inlets designed to feed the high-performance cooling system for the M139 engine. These feature horizontal “flics” that help manage airflow.
-
Front Splitter: A structural lower extension that increases front-end downforce.
-
AMG Aerodynamics Package (Optional Add-on): Many “Complete Packages” include the additional Aero Flics (canards) on the outer corners of the bumper and a larger, more pronounced front splitter finished in high-gloss black.
3. Complete Package Components
A full front-end conversion or replacement assembly typically includes:
| Component | Technical Detail |
| Main Bumper Skin | High-quality Polypropylene (PP), primed and ready for paint. |
| Panamericana Grille | The central vertical-slat assembly with AMG badging. |
| Lower Grille Inserts | Central and side hexagonal/slat meshes. |
| Aero Flics & Splitter | High-gloss black aerodynamic attachments. |
| PDC & Camera Mounts | Internal brackets for Parking Sensors and the front camera. |
| Internal Ducting | Revised air guides required to align with the larger AMG intakes. |
4. Night Package I vs. Night Package II
When selecting your front package, the trim finish is the primary differentiator:
-
Night Package (P55): Features a high-gloss black front splitter and high-gloss black intake flics.
-
Night Package II (PAZ): Adds Black Chrome to the vertical grille slats and the Mercedes-Benz star, giving the car a “dark-mode” appearance.
Technical Installation Note
If you are retrofitting this onto a GLA 250 AMG Line, the bumper is a direct “bolt-on” for the most part. However, because the GLA 45 S is wider, ensure your package includes the AMG-specific wheel arch flares. Without these, the front bumper will not sit flush with the side of the car, as the 45 AMG flares are wider to accommodate its larger track and wheel setup.
