Information: Mercedes Sprinter 2010-2018 Front Bumper Body Kit Options
The 2010 Sprinter front bumper body kit you need depends on one critical fact: every Sprinter built from 2006 through 2018 belongs to the W906 generation, and only W906-specific parts will bolt on without modification. At DL Auto Design we manufacture W906 front bumpers, grilles, side skirts and rear bumpers from ABS plastic and fiberglass, ship worldwide from Lithuania, and offer 0% VAT to all non-EU buyers including customers in the United States.
W906 Generation: What Years Are Covered
Mercedes built the second-generation Sprinter on the W906 platform from 2006 to 2018 in North America and most world markets. That means a 2010 Sprinter, a 2013 Sprinter and a 2018 Sprinter front bumper all share the same front fascia mounting points. If you are in the US, your van may be badged as a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 or 3500 but the platform code is still W906. Buyers searching for a sprinter 2013 bumper kit or a sprinter 2018 front bumper are looking for the same part family.
The W906 ran in two main body styles: a pre-facelift face (2006-2013) and a mild facelift (2014-2018) that changed the headlight surround slightly. Most aftermarket bumpers we produce at DL Auto Design are compatible across the full W906 range, but always confirm your exact model year when ordering so we can verify headlight cutout dimensions.
W906 Front Bumper Body Kit Styles Available
We offer two core material options for the W906 platform: ABS plastic and fiberglass/FRP. ABS is more impact-resistant and better for daily commercial use. Fiberglass is lighter and preferred for show builds or luxury conversions where saving weight matters.
- Tuning Front Bumper - ABS Plastic: a deep sport-style lower apron with enlarged air intakes, bumper lip and fog light recesses. Available paint-ready or painted to your RAL or OEM code. This is our most popular W906 seller for US fleet upgrade customers.
- Tuning Front Bumper - Fiberglass: same aggressive tuning silhouette in FRP for customers who prioritize weight reduction or plan a full custom paint scheme.
- Matching grille: the front bumper upgrade is most impactful when paired with a new radiator grille. Our W906 grille options include an AMG-style horizontal bar grille and a debadged clean-face style.

W906 Front Lip and Splitter: A Lower-Cost Entry Point
If a full front bumper replacement is outside your current budget, a W906 front lip (also called a front splitter or chin spoiler) bolts to the lower edge of your factory bumper. This is the fastest visual upgrade on the W906 platform and takes under two hours to fit. Our lips are ABS plastic, come with mounting hardware and are supplied paint-ready so your body shop can match your van color exactly.
A front lip pairs naturally with Mercedes Sprinter Tuning Side Skirts W906 to create a full lower-body aero look without replacing the factory bumper shell. This combination is especially popular for US passenger van and luxury shuttle conversions.
Grille Upgrade: AMG Style for the W906
The factory W906 grille is a plain twin-bar design that dates the van immediately. Our aftermarket W906 radiator grilles come in AMG-inspired horizontal slat styles and solid bar patterns. All grilles fit the factory grille aperture with no cutting. Finish options include gloss black, chrome trim inserts and unpainted ABS ready for body-color spraying.
Grille swaps are the single fastest exterior upgrade on any W906. The factory clips release with a trim tool, the new grille snaps in, and the job is done in under 30 minutes. No electrical connections are disturbed, which matters for US-market vans with front radar or camera ADAS systems mounted behind the grille - always check your van trim level before ordering.
Fitment by Wheelbase: L1, L2, L3 and L4
Front bumper width on the W906 is the same across all wheelbases (L1 short through L4 extra-long) because wheelbase only affects the floor and side panel length, not the front clip. You order the same front bumper regardless of whether your van is a 144-inch or 170-inch wheelbase. The table below summarizes fitment:
Part W906 Years Wheelbase Material Tuning Front Bumper ABS 2006-2018 All (L1-L4) ABS Plastic Tuning Front Bumper FRP 2006-2018 All (L1-L4) Fiberglass Front Lip/Splitter 2006-2018 All (L1-L4) ABS Plastic Radiator Grille AMG Style 2006-2018 All (L1-L4) ABS Plastic Side Skirts 2006-2018 L2, L3, L4 ABS Plastic 2018 Model Year: W906 or W907?
This is the most common fitment mistake US buyers make. The W907 generation launched in early 2018 in Europe but most US-market 2018 model year vans were still built on the W906 platform and shipped through the 2018 calendar year. Check your VIN or the sticker inside the driver door jamb for the platform code. If your van says W906 you need W906 parts. If it says W907 or VS30 (the US Sprinter designation under the Daimler-Freightliner era ended in 2018 when Mercedes-Benz USA took over distribution), you need W907 parts.
We verify platform codes for every US customer who contacts us before shipping - this is a free service and we recommend using it for any 2018 model year order.
Parking Sensors, Cameras and ADAS Compatibility
Many 2014-2018 W906 vans sold in the US include front parking sensors or a forward collision warning radar mounted in the lower bumper area. Our tuning front bumpers include pre-cut or pre-marked sensor holes compatible with standard 18mm and 22mm sensor housings. If your van has a radar module behind the lower grille, contact us before ordering so we can confirm the cutout will clear the radar housing. We do not produce TUV-certified W906 bumpers for the US market specifically, but our ABS parts meet the structural standards required for US state vehicle inspection in most jurisdictions.
Paint, Finish and Shipping to the US
All W906 body kit parts ship from our facility in Lithuania. Typical transit time to the US East Coast is 7-14 business days via DHL or a freight forwarder depending on part size. Large bumper shells ship on a pallet. As a non-EU buyer you pay 0% EU VAT, which is a significant saving compared to the 21% VAT EU customers pay. US import duty on plastic automotive body parts (HTS 8708.29) is currently 2.5%, which is one of the lower duty rates in the automotive category.
Parts arrive paint-ready - primed in grey or white depending on material. Your local body shop applies your chosen color. We can also arrange factory paint to your supplied OEM Mercedes color code for an additional lead time of 5-7 business days.
W906 vs W907: Should You Upgrade the Whole Front End
Some US W906 owners ask about converting their 2010-2018 van to look like a newer W907. A full front conversion requires swapping the hood, headlights, fenders and bumper - it is a significant undertaking. We cover this topic in detail in our dedicated W906 to W907 conversion guide. For most customers who want a fresher look without a full conversion, our W906 sport bumper and AMG-style grille deliver a dramatic change at a fraction of the conversion cost. The van retains its factory safety systems and OEM lighting, which keeps it straightforward for US DMV registration.
Frequently Asked Questions
What generation is a 2010, 2013 or 2018 Sprinter?
All three years are W906 generation (2006-2018). Parts must be labeled W906 to fit. Most 2018 US-market vans are also W906, though some late 2018 production units are W907 - check your door-jamb sticker to confirm.
Will a W907 front bumper fit my 2013 Sprinter?
No. The W907 has a different hood, headlight shell and bumper mounting bracket design. A W907 bumper will not bolt onto a W906 without major fabrication. Always order W906-specific parts for any van built before the W907 transition.
Do DL Auto Design W906 bumpers fit all wheelbases?
Yes. Front bumper width is identical across L1 through L4 wheelbases on the W906. Wheelbase affects only the floor length and side body panels, not the front clip.
Are the bumpers compatible with parking sensors?
Our W906 ABS tuning bumpers include provisions for standard 18mm and 22mm parking sensors. If your van has a radar-based forward collision system, contact us before ordering to confirm radar housing clearance.
Do US buyers pay EU VAT?
No. All buyers outside the European Union pay 0% VAT at DL Auto Design. US customers are exempt from EU VAT automatically. US import duty on plastic body parts is approximately 2.5% under HTS 8708.29, assessed by US Customs.
How long does shipping take to the United States?
Typical delivery to the US East Coast is 7-14 business days from our Lithuania facility via DHL Express or pallet freight for large bumper shells. We provide a tracking number for every shipment.
Can I get the bumper painted before shipping?
Yes. We offer factory paint to your OEM Mercedes color code or any RAL/custom code. Painted orders require an additional 5-7 business days of lead time. Unpainted parts arrive grey-primed and ready for your body shop.
If your Sprinter was built between 2010 and 2018, you are working with the W906 platform and the upgrade path is clear: a sport front bumper in ABS or fiberglass, an AMG-style grille, optional side skirts and a rear bumper to complete the look. We at DL Auto Design manufacture every W906 part in-house in Lithuania, ship worldwide with 0% VAT for US buyers, and verify fitment for every order before it leaves our facility. Visit our W906 front bumper and side skirt pages, select your material and finish, and contact our team with your VIN if you have any question about your specific van - we will confirm fitment before you pay.
