Mercedes W205 Tuning — Page 40

This section brings together model-specific parts for the Mercedes C-class W205 (2014–2021): sedan, S205 wagon, C205 coupe and cabriolet. You’ll find front and rear bumpers and full body kit sets in AMG C63 and Black Mamba C63GT designs, a W206 AMG facelift conversion kit, grilles, plastic and carbon lips, diffusers and spoilers, headlights and taillights, hoods, AMG and Maybach-Style steering wheels, floor mats and wind deflectors. Parts are selected by three markers in the product title: body type (SD — sedan, SW — wagon, Coupe — coupe), period — pre-facelift 2014–2018 or facelift 2018–2021 — and trim level (Base, AMG-Line, C43 AMG or C63 AMG). The most popular upgrade is converting a standard W205 to the C63 AMG look.

Bumpers and body kits in C63 AMG style

The most popular category is bumpers. Front bumpers are available in AMG C63 2014–2018, AMG C63 2018–2021, C63 GT and AMG Line 2018–2021 designs; the rear bumper is made for a C63-style diffuser. These parts are adapted for regular W205 models, not only the AMG version. The 2018–2021 facelift front bumper fits the 2014–2018 pre-facelift body as well, but pre-facelift and facelift lip add-ons are not interchangeable: choose the lip for the bumper that is actually installed on the car. If a pre-facelift W205 has a facelift bumper installed, choose a facelift lip. Pay attention to product names: “front bumper assembly” comes with a grille, while “front bumper” without that wording means the assembled bumper only, without the grille.

If you’re changing the whole look, it’s easier to buy a body kit set: the front bumper, grille and rear section (full rear bumper or diffuser) are already matched to each other. There are separate kits for Coupe, the Black Mamba C63GT design, a kit with an aluminum hood and fenders, and a W206 AMG facelift conversion kit.

How to choose the right part for your W205

• Body type. Sedan, wagon and coupe parts are different: OmsaLine and Carmos rear bumper trims are for SW, Esa is for the sedan, and some body kits and spoilers are Coupe-only.
• Years. Pre-facelift and facelift (from 2018) have different bumpers and headlights, and grilles also differ by mounting points. That’s why lip add-ons, grilles and diffusers specify 2014–2018 or 2019–2021 in their names. If the car already has a bumper from another period installed, choose based on the bumper that is actually fitted, not the model year. The easiest option is to send the manager a photo of the front or rear.
• Trim level. DPT add-ons are for AMG-Line only. Radiator grilles Diamond Silver, AMG Silver, Panamericana GT, C63-design and Rocket are made for Avantgarde, AMG-Line and C43 AMG; for the original C63 AMG there is a separate Panamericana GT version.
• Camera and Distronic. Grilles are available with a camera option or without—check whether your car has a camera. If there is a Distronic radar behind the emblem, choose the grille and emblem with the radar in mind: not every emblem lets the signal pass, so confirm compatibility with the manager.

Lips, diffusers and spoilers: plastic or carbon

DPT front bumper lip add-ons are made from gloss black ABS plastic and are installed using automotive glass adhesive/sealant, purchased separately. Carbon add-ons are designed for a specific version—sedan Base, AMG-Line, C43 AMG, or C63 AMG coupe/cabriolet: a lip for an AMG-Line, C43 or C63 bumper will not fit another bumper. In the rear diffuser category you’ll find plastic diffusers with tips in C63 and C43 designs (black and silver) and carbon diffusers for sedan and coupe. Choose the diffuser for the rear bumper that is actually installed: sedan parts do not fit the coupe because the C205 has a different rear bumper. Spoilers include DPT in gloss black, 1234 Upgrade for Coupe, and a range of carbon spoilers for coupe 2015–2019; for the sedan there is a carbon trunk trim. All carbon parts are collected in the carbon trims section.

Lighting, hood, interior

Lighting options include facelift taillights (for pre-facelift 2014–2017), BlackEdition V1 and V2 with tinted lenses, 2026-Design, and front headlights in Maybach and FullLed versions—separately for cars with halogen and with LED. Taillights are selected by year, body type and the actual rear-end look, while headlights are selected by the factory lighting type. They install in the OEM mounting points; if the title says “without modules”, you reuse the modules from your original lights. For US-market cars, check connectors before replacing lighting—re-pinning or coding may be required. Hoods are available in aluminum and carbon; it’s recommended to test-fit an aluminum hood before painting. A new grille often comes without the emblem—you can transfer the OEM one or buy a front emblem, the emblem under glass, or its housing. Mirror caps in AMG-Look and stainless steel are glued over the factory covers—no need to remove them. Premium mud flaps are sold separately as front and rear sets and differ for Base vs AMG-Line bumpers. For the interior: steering wheels AMG 2018-Style, AMG 2021-Style and Maybach-Style (carbon, wood, LED options), 64-color ambient lighting, and floor mats in EVA, textile, polyurethane, and Stingray rubber; trunk mats differ for sedan vs wagon. For the roof there are cross bars for OEM mounting points.

Installation and painting

Bumpers, body kits, hoods and fenders are supplied unpainted and install in the OEM mounting points. The workflow is: remove old parts, test-fit new parts, prep, paint, and final installation—test fitting and panel-gap alignment must be done before painting. You can install the kit at DD Tuning’s network of certified service centers—your manager will recommend the nearest one. DPT lip add-ons do not require painting. Don’t mix generations: W204 and W206 have separate pages, and parts are not interchangeable between body generations.
