Used side skirts vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The B-Class has run across two main generations: the first generation (W245) ran from 2005 to 2011, and the second generation (W246) ran from 2011 to 2018, with a facelift in 2014. Side skirts are generation-specific, so a W245 skirt will not fit a W246 and vice versa — always confirm your generation with your registration before ordering.
This crosses the 2014 facelift boundary within the W246 generation, and the facelift brought styling changes that may affect whether the skirts are interchangeable. The underlying platform is the same, but you should confirm with the breaker against your specific registration whether the pre- and post-facelift skirts are the same part before buying.
Trim level can make a real difference with side skirts on the B-Class: AMG Line models typically carry a more aggressive styling package including different side skirts to those on SE or Sport variants. A skirt from an SE or Sport car will physically mount to the same bodyshell, but it will look different if your car has AMG Line bumpers and sills, so make sure you source from the same trim family for a matched appearance.
No — the engine and gearbox do not affect side skirt fitment on the B-Class. The skirts are body panels tied to the generation and facelift period, not the drivetrain, so a diesel car and a petrol car of the same generation and trim level will share the same skirt design.
The W246 facelift in 2014 updated the exterior styling, and it is not certain whether the side skirts changed between pre- and post-facelift cars. Name the boundary confidently — 2014 is where the split sits — but whether these specific panels interchange is something you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing.
Both years fall within the W245 generation (2005–2011), and there was no major facelift that is known to have changed the side skirt design within this generation, making a 2010 skirt a plausible match for a 2008 car. That said, always confirm with the breaker against your registration to rule out any mid-cycle production changes and to ensure the colour and trim level match what you need.
