Premerger AMG R129 Exhaust System
Original HWA-Stamped AMG Muffler + Mid-Section Resonator • Fits 1990–2002 SL V8
Offered for sale is a genuine premerger AMG exhaust system designed for the Mercedes-Benz R129 SL-Class.

Perfect for OE+ Restorations: Required piece for authentic AMG-era builds, especially SL500 AMG and SL60 AMG conversions.
