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

Your INFINITI fender's job is to help protect the wheels and undercarriage components from flying debris, protect people and other vehicles from rocks and pebbles that might deflect from your moving tires, and minimize damage to your vehicle in case of a minor collision.

In many INFINITI models, the fender is made up of multiple components, one of which is the Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front). To get more specific, the fender splash shield on your INFINITI is mounted to the inside of the wheel well, and is situated between the fender and the tire. Fender splash shields are made-to-fit for a particular location on your INFINITI: passenger-side front, driver-side front, passenger-side rear, and driver-side rear. Additionally, they're designed using the exact dimensions of particular INFINITI models and years.

Due to their positioning within your wheel well, your Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) is your INFINITI's first line of defense against damage from debris. For instance, if a tall SUV drives past your vehicle and kicks a rock up into your wheel well, your trusty Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) can stop the object from affecting the brakes, headlight or tail light assemblies, or undercarriage. Plus, the shield can provide a barrier for these components from the elements, helping slow wear and tear.

As it ages and endures exposure to rain, ice, roadway salt and debris, your INFINITI Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) may become worn, losing its ability to protect your vehicle's complex systems. Additionally, it may have cracks or chips if you accidentally hit a curb or encounter a sizable pothole. If it's broken, your Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) exposes your vehicle to dangerous debris, and it could also generate a scraping or flapping noise if a piece breaks off and flutters up against a tire.

But, the good news is that replacing one of your vehicle's fender splash shields is easy and inexpensive. You want a new Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) that will fit on your INFINITI perfectly, so it's recommended that you order directly from INFINITI Parts. Depending on your vehicle model and year, the replacement process can vary a bit. For most vehicles, you'll just need to have your INFINITI owner's manual, a screwdriver, and some fasteners.

Before you do anything else, start by giving your car a few minutes to cool. Next, remove the clips and bolts that hold the fender shield on your vehicle now. If you're planning to reuse the fasteners, set them aside for a few minutes (whenever possible, it's better to use new ones, in case the existing hardware is worn). Dry fit the new Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) by holding it inside your wheel well, ensuring any rivets and holes are aligned with the holes on your fender. Once you're confident about the placement, bolt or snap the replacement Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) onto your INFINITI! If you need help, visit your nearest INFINITI service center.

With a few tools and an authentic Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) in your corner, you and your INFINITI can hit the road again with peace of mind!
