MERCEDES A35 W177 FRONT PACKAGE COMPLETE
For the Mercedes-Benz A35 AMG (W177), the “Complete Front Package” is a comprehensive solution designed to either repair a vehicle to factory standards or upgrade a standard AMG Line (Code 772) model to the more aggressive A35 aesthetic.
In 2026, these packages are divided between the Pre-Facelift (2018–2022) and the LCI Facelift (2023+) versions.
1. Key Visual Components
A complete package focuses on the “Yellow Night” or “Edition 1” style aerodynamics that distinguish the A35 from the standard A-Class.
-
Panamericana (GT-Style) Grille: The defining feature of the A35. It features vertical slats that broaden the front profile. For 2023+ LCI models, the grille is slightly more integrated with the headlight contour.
-
Front Bumper Aero Kit (Canards): A set of four high-gloss black “flics” (two per side) that mount to the outer air intakes. These are a signature of the AMG Aerodynamics Package (Code B26).
-
Front Splitter & Extension: A prominent lower lip that extends the front chin. In “Complete” kits, this often includes a secondary under-tray for improved airflow.
-
Side Air Intake Trims: Replaces the standard plastic slats with high-gloss black or carbon fiber bezels.
2. Technical Specifications & Integration
Because the W177 is a tech-heavy platform, a “Complete Package” must account for several sensors located in the front bumper:
| Component | Function / Compatibility |
| Bumper Skin | High-grade Polypropylene (PP) with pre-drilled holes for PDC (Parking Sensors). |
| Radar Plate | A specialized, radio-transparent Mercedes star or glass-look plate for DISTRONIC/ACC. |
| Camera Mount | A dedicated bracket for the 360° Front Camera (located just below the star). |
| Internal Brackets | Specific impact absorbers and air guides to ensure proper engine and intercooler cooling. |
3. LCI Facelift (2023–2026) Updates
If you are purchasing a package for a newer model or performing a facelift conversion, note these specific LCI changes:
-
Power Bulges: The LCI hood (bonnet) features two distinct “power domes” that align with the new front bumper geometry.
-
Revised Headlight Shape: The bumper cutouts are designed for the slimmer, flatter LED headlights with the “one-dot” DRL signature.
-
AMG Roundel: The Mercedes-Benz star on the hood is replaced by the AMG Affalterbach crest in many LCI packages.
4. Material Options
-
ABS Plastic / Polypropylene (PP): Best for daily driving and “OEM+” conversions. These materials offer the flexibility needed for perfect fitment and are resistant to stone chips.
-
Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber: Frequently used for the splitter and canards in high-end “Ultimate” packages to provide a race-inspired contrast against the body paint.
Professional Note: If you are converting a standard A180, A200, or A250 (non-AMG Line) to the A35 look, the “Complete Package” must include the inner fender liners and under-engine splash guards, as the A35 bumper sits wider and lower than the base models.
