Second Hand Mercedes-Benz GLE Front Bumper

The GLE runs across two main generations: the first-generation W166 (2015–2018) and the second-generation V167 (2019-onwards), and bumpers are not interchangeable between these platforms. Within each generation, the front bumper is shared across the different body styles, so the key is matching the correct generation and knowing whether your car is a pre-facelift or facelifted version. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.

No — 2017 is the W166 first generation and 2019 is the V167 second generation, and these are entirely different platforms with different front-end structures and bumper designs. These parts do not interchange, so you need to source a bumper specifically from the V167 if your car is a 2019 model. Make sure to confirm against your registration with the breaker to get the right part.

The W166 GLE received a facelift in 2018 which brought changes to the front-end styling including the grille, lights and bumper design. Because of this, whether a pre-facelift and facelifted W166 bumper will interchange is not something we can confirm here — you should check this directly with the breaker, quoting your registration, so they can verify whether the specific panel they have matches your car.

Trim level does not affect which bumper fits the GLE in terms of the underlying fitment — the front bumper fits based on generation (W166 or V167) and whether the car is pre-facelift or post-facelift, not on whether it is SE, Sport, AMG Line or any other trim. However, AMG Line models often feature a different bumper styling with a more aggressive lower apron and different trim inserts compared to standard trims, so a bumper from a non-AMG Line car on an AMG Line vehicle, or vice versa, may look noticeably different. Confirm with the breaker which trim specification their bumper came from so you know what to expect cosmetically.

The GLE SUV (W167) and GLE Coupé (C167) share the same second-generation V167 platform and broadly the same front-end architecture, but there can be differences in bumper design and fit between the two body styles. We cannot state with certainty that these parts are fully interchangeable, so you should confirm with the breaker whether the bumper they have came from a SUV or Coupé and verify it against your registration before purchasing.

No — engine type does not affect front bumper fitment on the GLE; the same bumper is used regardless of whether the car is a diesel, petrol or hybrid. What matters is the generation (W166 or V167), the facelift status of your car, and the trim specification if you want the styling to match. Confirm the generation and facelift period with the breaker using your registration to make sure you get the right part.
