Key Facelift Identification Features
If you are verifying this against a pre-facelift (2019–2023) bumper, the A1188802802 has several distinct structural differences:
-
Headlight Cutout: The inner taper is reshaped to accommodate the updated LED High Performance or Multibeam headlamps.
-
Side Air Intakes: Features sharper, more vertical aerodynamic “flicks” or fins compared to the more rounded inlets on the older version.
-
Center Grille Interface: Designed specifically for the new “Star Pattern” grille (where the mesh is made of tiny Mercedes stars).
-
A-Wing Profile: The lower “A-style” crossbar is more integrated and aggressive, often paired with a specific lower spoiler lip.
Technical & Logistics Notes
| Aspect | Requirement / Detail |
| Finish | Supplied in Primer (unpainted). Requires professional color matching. |
| Camera | Supports the 360° camera system (bracket is usually part of the central grille). |
| Conversion | To fit this on a 2019–2023 model, you must also replace the headlights, grilles, and lower air ducting. |
| Shipping | Large-format freight required. The “wings” of the bumper are prone to inward warping if not properly braced during transit. |
