Purpose and function of the component

The presented cover is dedicated for installation on the left side of the vehicle, in the front bumper area, where the headlight washer extends. It is responsible for:

• protecting the washer mechanism from road dirt,
• maintaining the continuity of the bumper and headlight lines,
• limiting the ingress of moisture and small debris into the washer cavity.

Thanks to its factory fitment for the specific Mercedes W176 generation, the component ensures proper alignment with the bumper contour and correct operation with the retractable washer mechanism.

Color and paint matching

The cover is finished in the UNIVERSE BLUE METALLIC - 894 shade, which allows for visual matching to a body painted in the same color. The metallic paint coating ensures consistency with the factory body finish, reducing the need for additional painting or color corrections after installation.

In the case of vehicles after body and paint repairs, selecting the correct paint code for this cover facilitates achieving an even tonal transition between the bumper and the washer cover component.

Installation characteristics

The headlight washer cover is designed as a component that works with the factory retractable mechanism. Proper edge guidance and profiling of the working surfaces enable:

• stable seating in the bumper socket,
• correct operation of the washer during extension and retraction,
• reduction of play and vibrations while driving.

As a part from the Bumper inserts and covers group, the component is intended for integration with the original Mercedes front bumper structure, without the need for shape modifications or additional fitting.

Condition and service application

The offered cover is a used component, which makes it a cost-effective solution for post-accident repairs, replacing damaged covers, or restoring the completeness of the bumper after washer removal. It is particularly useful in situations where the priority is to maintain the original geometry of body components and compatibility with the factory headlight washer system.
