For enthusiasts looking to elevate the aesthetic appeal of their Mercedes-Benz 190e (W201), a genuine Cosworth body kit offers an unmatched upgrade. Originally designed for the iconic 2.5-16 model, this complete body kit is now available for sale, presenting a rare opportunity to add a touch of motorsport heritage to your vehicle.
This meticulously removed body kit comes directly from a smoke silver 2.5-16, ensuring authentic Cosworth styling and perfect compatibility with your 190e. The kit is described to be in fantastic condition overall, a testament to its careful removal and the quality of original Mercedes-Benz components. While acknowledging minor imperfections typical of used parts, such as light scuffs on the skirt undersides and bumper corners, the overall condition is highlighted as being exceptionally good for its age. The arch lips show minimal stone chips, and importantly, all essential fixing bolts are included and intact, simplifying the installation process. The kit also retains approximately 95% of its original body kit clips, with only a few missing from the side pods, which are readily replaceable.
The rear spoiler, a signature element of the Cosworth kit, is structurally sound and straight, although the paint on its top surface exhibits crazing, a common issue in older paintwork. One of the spoiler bolts is noted as snapped, requiring attention during re-installation. Furthermore, the front bumper tow cover is a high-quality replica from Hedgehog Motorsport, requiring minor adjustments for a flawless fit.
Located in Llanwrtyd Wells, the body kit is available for viewing and collection. Recognizing the rural location, the seller also offers the convenience of bringing the kit to Cardiff for easier collection, catering to potential buyers from various locations. This flexibility adds to the appeal for those interested in acquiring this sought-after 190e Mercedes Body Kit.
Priced at £1250, this 190e Mercedes Cosworth body kit represents a significant upgrade opportunity for W201 owners seeking authentic styling and a touch of classic motorsport pedigree. The kit’s comprehensive nature and excellent overall condition, despite minor age-related imperfections, make it a worthwhile investment for enhancing your Mercedes-Benz 190e.
