Purpose and body fitment

The presented fender is designed as a component mounted on the front right side, ensuring proper body line alignment and compatibility with factory mounting points. Thanks to a design consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, the correct gaps between the hood, bumper, and doors are maintained, which translates into proper body geometry and reduces unwanted stress within the paneling.

Color and paint finish

The Obsidian Black Metallic color is a popular, dark metallic shade used in many units of this series, allowing for a consistent visual effect with the remaining body panels. The metallic finish promotes even light distribution on the surface, which improves the vehicle's aesthetic appeal after repair. Using the original shade limits the scope of potential paint work and makes it easier to match the panel to the existing paint on the car.

Technical characteristics of the component

The fender belongs to the group of body components responsible for protecting the wheel area from dirt and minor mechanical damage. The properly selected weight of the component supports the maintenance of factory structural rigidity while not negatively affecting the weight distribution in the front part of the vehicle. The element is prepared for installation in the location intended by the manufacturer, taking into account factory mounting points and wheel arch geometry.

Condition and service application

The product is offered as a used part, making it a cost-effective solution for post-accident repairs, restorations, and restoring the vehicle to full visual and functional efficiency. Choosing an original fender from the secondary market allows you to maintain factory fitment to the body structure while reducing costs compared to new panels. This is a practical option for both body and paint shops as well as users independently sourcing body parts.
