SIEGEL Automotive SA2D0097 Fender, front, right
Basically, a front fender’s job is to protect the front tires and the engine bay from road debris – stuff like rocks, mud, water, dirt, even little bits of trash that the tires kick up. It also helps direct airflow around the wheel well, which can actually improve your fuel efficiency a little bit. It’s not a huge impact, but it does help.
Think of it as a partial barrier, guarding those important components. It's bolted to the vehicle’s body, usually around the wheel well opening. It’s part of the exterior, so it also contributes to the overall look of your vehicle. Some designs even incorporate areas for mounting lights or other accessories.
Honestly, you’ll notice if a fender goes bad. A damaged or missing fender leaves everything exposed. That road spray will get all over your engine, your frame, and potentially even into the cabin. Salt and grime are especially bad, causing rust and corrosion. It acts like a shield, preventing that. Plus, a damaged fender can definitely affect the resale value of your vehicle, and can even be a safety issue depending on how bad the damage is. You can find replacements pretty easily, even online at places like Fixparts Online, and getting a new one keeps everything protected and looking good.
