The Mercedes-Benz W118 / C118 CLA FDGT Carbon Rear bumper Splitter is a model-specific Mercedes styling part for W118 / C118 CLA with AMG sport bumper. The sections below explain the stated specification, practical fitment checks, installation planning and buying questions that matter in 2027.
Mercedes-Benz W118 / C118 CLA FDGT Carbon Rear bumper Splitter overview
A rear bumper splitter adds a defined lower edge around the diffuser area without replacing the complete bumper insert. The piece should follow the bumper width, exhaust layout and outer corner transitions with consistent projection.
The C118 CLA Coupe and X118 Shooting Brake share a design language but differ around the roof and rear bodywork. CLA45, AMG Line and standard bumpers can also require different aerodynamic pieces.
The FDGT designation identifies the visual variant of this product. It should be compared directly with the regular FD version, particularly around projection, corner treatment and the way it connects with adjacent bumper or sill lines.

Compatibility and fitment for W118 / C118 CLA with AMG sport bumper
Check the bumper version, exhaust outlets and any factory trim that occupies the same mounting line. The body style and factory exterior package should match the product photographs at every mounting edge.
The listing gives model years 2019-now, but registration year alone is not enough. Decode the VIN or confirm the build date, then compare the bumper, sensors and trim level with the product gallery.
Installation requirements
The stated method is Add on / 3M tape adhering. Adhesive installation depends on temperature, surface preparation and uninterrupted contact pressure; polish, wax and silicone dressing must be removed from the bonding area.
Trial assembly helps identify whether factory screws can be reused or whether additional mounting points are necessary. Use masking tape reference marks during the dry fit so the final position can be reproduced after cleaning the mounting surface.
Material, finish and delivery inspection
The listing identifies Dry carbon / Vacuum Infusion construction. For this type of composite part, low weight is useful, but the practical quality checks are consistent weave direction, an even clear coat, clean edges and mounting surfaces that are not distorted.
Place the uninstalled part on a padded surface and compare left and right sides. Uneven curvature, twisted mounting flanges or blocked holes should be resolved before the vehicle is dismantled.
Price, availability and ordering in 2027
DAS Motor can help confirm current price and availability for the exact Mercedes-Benz application. Request a fitment check with the chassis code, model year, body style and clear photographs of the mounting area before purchase.
Before paint protection film or ceramic coating is applied, complete a full trial fit. This avoids paying for surface finishing on a component that later requires trimming, drilling or replacement.
Monitor the lowest edge for contact damage and recheck fixings after the first heat cycles around the exhaust. Seasonal temperature changes are a useful time to inspect bonded joints, particularly where composite and painted metal expand at different rates.
Mercedes part pre-order checklist
- Compare product and vehicle photographs at the same angle.
- Confirm year range against the build date.
- Identify any previous bumper or body repair.
- Check whether factory clips can be reused.
- Budget for preparation and installation materials.
- Verify the seller's policy before drilling or bonding.

What should be checked before ordering in 2027?
Verify current stock, price, delivery terms, included hardware, material specification and the seller's fitment evidence for the exact VIN or vehicle configuration.
Is professional installation recommended?
Yes. A specialist should dry-fit the component, check symmetry and clearance, and confirm the correct adhesive or mechanical fasteners before any permanent modification.
