Protector Fender.
Fender Splash Shield.

• Located between the fender and the tire
• Helps shield your vehicle from small rocks and other road debris
• Replace when cracked or broken

On your INFINITI, the fender can help protect the wheels and undercarriage components from incoming road debris, protect people and other cars from any rocks that might deflect from your spinning tires, and minimize damage to your vehicle if you're involved in a roadway accident.

In many INFINITI models, the fender consists of multiple components, and one of those is the Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front). To get more specific, the INFINITI fender splash shield is mounted inside the wheel well, and sits in between the fender frame and your tire. All fender splash shields are tailor-made for specific fitment within your INFINITI: passenger-side front, driver-side front, passenger-side rear, and driver-side rear. Additionally, they're made using the exact dimensions of particular INFINITI models and years.

Because of where they're mounted within your wheel well, the Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front) serves as your first line of defense from flying rocks or debris. As an example, if a truck speeds beside your INFINITI and its large tires throw a pebble straight toward your wheel well, the Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front) can help prevent the debris from bouncing into the undercarriage, brake system, or headlight assembly. Plus, the shield can offer protection for those parts from weather, which can help prevent premature corrosion and wear.

As it ages and endures exposure to rain, ice, roadway salt and debris, your INFINITI Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front) can degrade, which compromises the protection it offers to the undercarriage of your vehicle. Additionally, it may break or detach if you scrape a curb or smash into a pothole. If it's broken, your Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front) exposes your vehicle to dangerous debris, and it will probably generate a flapping or grinding noise if it is left to flutter against the tires.

But, the good news is that replacing any of your INFINITI's fender splash shields is easy and inexpensive. You'll need a replacement Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front) that will fit on your INFINITI without any gaps, so it's recommended that you buy directly from INFINITI Parts. Depending on your vehicle model and year, the replacement process may be slightly different. For most vehicles, you'll need your INFINITI owner's manual, a screwdriver, and some fasteners.

Before you do anything else, start by letting your car cool down. Next, remove the bolts and clips from the old fender shield. If you plan to reuse the old bolts and clips, stash them in a safe place until you need them again (whenever possible, it's best to use new fasteners, just in case the old components are worn out). To test the fit of your new Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front), set it in the appropriate position, checking to be sure that all rivets and holes line up the notches and holes in the fender piece. After you've aligned everything, bolt or snap your new Fender Splash Shield (Left, Front) into place! If you need help, stop by a nearby INFINITI service center.
