Does mercedes auto body parts come already factory painted?

or do they paint every part at the dealership? specifically front bumper on a 2009 mercedes c300Does mercedes auto body parts come already factory painted?
No. They would not match if they were painted at the factory. Paint changes from the first time the sun hits it. Good paint shops have a paint reader that can duplicate the current color of the paint making an exact match.Does mercedes auto body parts come already factory painted?
There are some body parts stores that send you the part pre-painted. They use color codes. They don't always match considering some cars color fade over time. Some body shops buffed the old painted panels to make them match the new painted panels.





When paint fades it consider to be dirty. So by buffing the old painted surfaces, they remove the dirt making it look new. All dealers and paint shops use color codes. So when looking for a part for your car, you may want to consider a body part supplier that will paint that part using color codes. If you look inside the driver store, you will see the color code for you car.
If you're buying a replacement bumber, it is not painted. The dealer can sublet it to a collision shop and have it painted it for you (at an additional charge) or you can get it painted yourself.
they do not come painted but they are primed
