Mercedes-Benz CLA W117 CLA220 / CLA45 AMG Carbon Fiber Style Front Lip, Rear Diffuser & Aero Body Kit
Mercedes-Benz CLA W117 CLA220 / CLA45 AMG Exterior Aero & Body Styling Range
Give the Mercedes-Benz CLA W117 a more purposeful, performance-inspired exterior with a coordinated selection of front, rear and mirror-area upgrades. This listing includes carbon-fiber-style mirror covers, front lip and canard combinations, rear diffuser components, bumper-corner pieces and complete CLA45-style front and rear bumper assemblies.
The W117 CLA has a distinctive coupe-like roofline and compact four-door proportions. Exterior aero upgrades work especially well on this platform because relatively small changes to the front lip, bumper corners and rear diffuser can make the car appear wider, lower and more visually connected from front to rear.
Vehicle Platform
- Model family: Mercedes-Benz CLA
- Chassis: W117
- Applications represented in this listing: CLA220 and CLA45 AMG styling
- Product category: Front lip, rear diffuser, mirror covers, bumper trim and bumper assemblies
- Style direction: Performance-inspired exterior upgrade
Variant Selection Guide
This is a multi-component listing. Each option represents a different exterior part, so customers should select by component name rather than treating every option as the same product.
- Carbon Fiber Style Mirror Covers – Pair: left and right mirror-area styling pieces that add a sportier visual accent at eye level.
- Front Center Lip + Canards – Carbon Fiber Style: a more complete lower-front upgrade combining the center lip with additional bumper-edge aero accents.
- AMG Rear Diffuser + Bracket – Black / Silver: a rear lower-bumper upgrade designed to create a more aggressive AMG-inspired rear profile.
- Front Bumper Corner Pieces – Carbon Fiber Style: left and right front-bumper corner accents for customers who want a focused exterior change without replacing the entire front bumper.
- CLA45 Rear Bumper Assembly: a complete rear bumper option for a larger-scale CLA45-style exterior conversion or replacement project.
- CLA45 Front Bumper Assembly: a complete front bumper option for a stronger CLA45-inspired front-end transformation.
- 2014–2016 CLA PZ-Style Front Lip: a dedicated lower-front lip for 2014–2016 CLA applications, shaped to add extra visual depth below the bumper.
Why The CLA W117 Responds So Well To Aero Styling
The CLA’s factory design already uses strong shoulder lines, a sloping roof and a short rear deck. Adding lower aero components exaggerates those proportions in a controlled way. A deeper front lip visually lowers the nose, bumper corner pieces make the front end appear wider, and a more defined rear diffuser gives the back of the car a stronger performance identity.
Mirror covers and smaller trim pieces are useful for customers who want a more subtle visual upgrade. Complete front and rear bumper assemblies suit larger styling projects where the goal is a more dramatic CLA45-inspired transformation.
Carbon-Fiber-Style Details
The carbon-fiber-style options introduce a dark patterned finish commonly associated with performance exterior parts. This creates contrast against the painted body and works particularly well on white, silver, grey, black, red and blue vehicles. Customers building a coordinated look can combine mirror covers, front lip pieces and bumper-corner accents to repeat the same visual theme around the car.
Front-End Upgrade Options
The front of the CLA has one of the strongest visual identities on the car, so the choice of front aero component makes a major difference. The center lip and canard package produces the deepest and most aggressive lower-front treatment among the accessory-style options. The bumper-corner pieces create a more focused change at the outer edges, while the PZ-style front lip provides a dedicated solution for 2014–2016 cars.
For customers planning a more comprehensive conversion, the CLA45 front bumper assembly changes a much larger portion of the front-end design and becomes the foundation for a more complete performance-style build.
Rear-End Upgrade Options
The AMG rear diffuser and bracket option gives the lower rear bumper a more structured, performance-oriented shape. The black and silver contrast creates extra definition around the diffuser area. For a larger rear-end conversion or replacement project, the CLA45 rear bumper assembly provides a more substantial change than a diffuser alone.
Mirror Styling
Mirror covers are one of the easiest ways to introduce a performance-style accent without changing major body panels. Because they sit higher on the vehicle and are visible from front three-quarter, side and rear three-quarter angles, they help carry the exterior theme beyond the lower aero pieces.
How To Choose The Right Option
- Confirm that your vehicle is a Mercedes-Benz CLA W117.
- Identify whether you want a small trim upgrade, an aero component or a complete bumper assembly.
- Read the exact variant name before ordering.
- For the PZ-style front lip, match the listed 2014–2016 year range.
- For a coordinated build, combine components that share the same visual theme rather than mixing unrelated front and rear styles.
Installation Approach
Small exterior trim pieces and mirror covers should be positioned and test-fitted before final attachment. Front lips, canards, diffusers and bumper-corner pieces require careful left/right alignment so the finished result looks symmetrical from the front or rear.
Complete front and rear bumper assemblies involve a larger installation process because surrounding trim, grilles, mounting points and adjacent body panels need to align correctly. Professional body-shop installation is recommended for these larger components.
Styling Combinations
- Subtle sport look: carbon-fiber-style mirror covers + front bumper corner pieces.
- Front-focused build: front center lip + canards + mirror covers.
- Balanced aero package: front lip/canards + mirror covers + AMG rear diffuser.
- More complete CLA45-inspired transformation: CLA45 front bumper assembly + CLA45 rear bumper assembly, combined with complementary exterior details.
Who This Product Range Is For

Care & Maintenance
Use normal automotive exterior-care methods: mild car shampoo, soft wash media and clean microfiber towels. Avoid aggressive abrasive polishing on patterned carbon-fiber-style finishes. Lower front and rear aero components should be kept clear of hard curb contact, steep ramp edges and parking stops. Inspect fastening points periodically as part of routine exterior maintenance.
