Protector FR.
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 in safeguarding your wheels and undercarriage from incoming road debris, protect nearby people or other cars from any rocks that may ricochet off your moving tires, and protect your vehicle's frame in case of a minor collision.

For some INFINITI models, the fender is made up of several distinct parts, one of which is the Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front). To get more specific, your INFINITI's fender splash shield can be found to the inside of the wheel well, and creates a barrier between your tire and the rest of the fender. All fender splash shields are tailor-made for specific fitment within your INFINITI: driver-side front, driver-side rear, passenger-side front, or passenger-side rear. These shields are also designed for use in particular INFINITI models and years.

Due to their positioning on your vehicle, the Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) serves as your first line of defense from flying rocks or debris. For instance, if a tall SUV drives past your vehicle and its large tires throw a pebble straight toward your wheel well, your trusty Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) helps prevent the debris from getting stuck in the headlight assembly, braking system, or undercarriage of your INFINITI. Additionally, this shield can help protect these parts from weather, which could prevent premature wear and tear.

Over time, when exposed to rain, ice, roadway salt and debris, your INFINITI Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) can break down, which negatively affects the level of protection it can give to your vehicle's undercarriage components. Plus, it can crack or break if you accidentally hit a curb or drive over a pothole while you're driving at a high speed. A broken Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) exposes your vehicle to dangerous debris, and it will likely make a grinding or tapping sound if a piece breaks off and flutters against the nearby tire.

But, the good news is that replacing any of the fender splash shields on your INFINITI is easy and inexpensive. You need a Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) that will fit on your INFINITI seamlessly, so it's wise to order directly from INFINITI Parts. Depending on your vehicle model and year, the steps for installation can vary a bit. In most cases, all you need is a screwdriver, fasteners, and your INFINITI owner's manual.

Before you do anything else, start by allowing your car to cool down for several minutes. Then, remove the bolts and clips that hold your current fender shield. If you'll be reusing the same ones, set them aside for a few minutes (usually, it's better to use new ones, in case the existing hardware is worn). To test the fit of your new Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front), set it in place, ensuring any holes and rivets match the notches and holes in the fender piece. Once you're confident about the placement, snap or screw the Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) into place and secure it! If you need help, head to a nearby INFINITI service site or dealership.

With a little bit of time and an OEM replacement Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front), your beloved INFINITI can be back up to speed with peace of mind!
