2020 MERCEDES-BENZ E 350 4MATIC

The auction lists the primary damage as **Front End**. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim: both front corners show collision damage, including a missing front-left headlamp, a deformed front-left fender, and damaged or missing front-bumper sections. The front-right corner is missing a substantial section of its trim/body covering, leaving a large opening around and below the headlamp area with internal components exposed. The right front bumper corner also has missing outer covering and visible underlying mounting areas. The front-left headlamp assembly is absent, exposing the lamp cavity and mounting components. The front-left fender is severely deformed around the wheel arch and front corner, with uneven contours and open gaps. The left corner of the front bumper is displaced from the adjacent body panels, with scuffing and an open gap near the missing headlamp. Both visible left-side doors have broad dark scuff marks, paint transfer, and scraped areas across their mid and lower sections. The left rear door additionally shows localized dents and creasing near its front edge and lower-middle area.
