Front Wing (Fender)

On most cars it is bolted on, so it can be replaced without welding. Some carry a side indicator repeater or a badge. A plastic wheel arch liner protects its inside from stones and water. Small dents in the front wing are often removed without painting using paintless dent repair.

The panel closes the area around the front wheel and forms part of the car’s front shape and aerodynamics.

Rust often starts at the lower rear edge, behind the liner where mud collects. A replacement wing needs careful colour matching and blending into the door and bonnet.
