A buyer's guide to used Mercedes-Benz CLS side skirt

Fitment questions

What generation is my Mercedes-Benz CLS and does it affect which side skirt fits?

The CLS has two main generations: the first generation (C219) ran from 2004 to 2010, and the second generation (C218) ran from 2011 to 2018, with a facelift arriving around 2014. Side skirts are body-specific to their generation, so a C219 skirt will not fit a C218 and vice versa — always confirm which generation your car is when requesting a quote from a breaker.

Will a pre-facelift CLS side skirt fit my post-facelift CLS?

The second-generation CLS (C218) received a facelift in 2014, and while the overall body structure remained similar, exterior panels including side skirts can differ between pre- and post-facelift cars. Whether a specific pre-2014 skirt swaps directly onto a post-2014 car is not guaranteed — confirm this against your registration with the breaker before committing to a purchase.

Does the trim level affect which side skirt fits my CLS — for example, AMG Line versus SE?

Trim level does not affect the fundamental fitment of the side skirt to the body, as the mounting points are shared across the range within a generation. However, AMG Line and AMG Sport models often came with more aggressive-looking or colour-coded skirts that differ cosmetically from standard SE skirts, so while a skirt may physically fit, the styling may not match — factor this in when sourcing from a breaker.

Does the engine in my CLS matter when sourcing a side skirt?

No — the engine has no bearing on side skirt fitment whatsoever, so whether your car is a 220d, 250d, 350d or any petrol variant, the correct skirt is determined by generation and facelift period, not what is under the bonnet. Simply confirm your generation (C219 or C218) and whether your car is pre- or post-facelift when speaking to a breaker.

I have a 2008 CLS — will a side skirt from a 2012 car fit it?

No, a 2012 CLS belongs to the second-generation C218 platform, while a 2008 car is a first-generation C219, and the body panels between these two generations are not interchangeable. You need to source a side skirt from another C219 (2004–2010) to have any realistic chance of a match — confirm the exact fit against your registration with the breaker.

Does it matter whether my CLS is a coupe or a Shooting Brake when buying a side skirt?

Yes — the CLS Shooting Brake (estate body) was offered alongside the standard coupe in the C218 generation, and while the two share the same platform, the side skirts are shaped to their respective body styles and are not directly interchangeable. Make sure you tell the breaker whether your car is the coupe or the Shooting Brake, as well as confirming your registration, so they can supply the correct part.
