This Mercedes Sprinter arrived with typical “stop-start” delivery traffic damage. The impact was concentrated on the nearside front, resulting in:
- Shattered Headlight & Trim: The main headlight unit was destroyed, and the surrounding plastic housing was cracked.
- Front Grille & Bumper Damage: The iconic Mercedes grille was snapped, and the heavy-duty front bumper had sustained structural cracks.
- Internal Component Exposure: Upon stripping the vehicle, we identified the need to inspect the radiator and cooling packs to ensure no leaks would cause future engine overheating.
Our Professional Repair Process
For commercial clients, we follow a “Total Care” approach to ensure the vehicle is both safe and professionally presented.
1. Detailed Stripping & Mechanical Check
We removed the damaged bumper, grille, and lighting to inspect the front-end structure. This ensures that hidden damage to brackets or cooling systems is caught early, preventing expensive breakdowns later.
2. Component Replacement
We installed a new Mercedes-Benz genuine-spec grille, headlight, and bumper assembly. At CPRS, we specialise in plastic bumper repair and replacement, ensuring a factory-perfect fit that maintains the van’s professional brand image.
3. Specialist Paint Refinishing
Commercial vans work hard, but they shouldn’t look it. We used our low-bake oven and computerised colour-matching to apply a durable, high-gloss finish to the front-end panels, ensuring the new parts matched the existing bodywork perfectly.
The Result: Ready for Work
The Sprinter was returned to the client in showroom condition, fully roadworthy and with its structural integrity restored to BS 10125 standards. The repair was completed swiftly to get the driver back on the road with minimal disruption to their delivery schedule.
