Purpose and function of the component

The described fuel flap is dedicated to the Mercedes C216 body type and serves as an external cover for the fuel filler area. Its purpose is to:

• protect the filler neck from dirt and moisture,

• provide a color match to the Diamond White Metallic paint.

Thanks to its factory origin, it ensures proper geometry, which facilitates correct alignment with the fender and the flap mechanism.

Diamond White Metallic - 799 color scheme

The finish in Diamond White Metallic - 799 is a distinctive pearlescent paint from the Mercedes palette, often found in higher-trim versions. Using the original color:

• minimizes the need for additional painting during local repairs,
• facilitates visual matching to the existing paint coating,
• allows for maintaining a consistent, elegant character of the bodywork.

This is a beneficial solution when replacing a damaged flap after a collision, scratching, or local corrosion.

• replacement is possible within standard body-service procedures.

The product comes from dismantling, which in practice means a real fit to the vehicle's structure and the preservation of original mounting edges.
