Purpose and function of the rear bumper trim panel

• covering the rear edge of the bumper and the trunk loading area,
• maintaining the correct body lines in AMG-styled versions,
• reducing the risk of paint damage during daily vehicle use.

Its placement in the rear of the vehicle helps protect a critical area of the body, especially during luggage loading and maneuvering in tight parking spaces.
