- 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 Nissan, the fender can help in safeguarding your wheels and undercarriage from flying debris, protect nearby people or other vehicles from small pebbles that might deflect from your spinning tires, and protect your vehicle's frame in the event of a minor collision.
On quite a few Nissan models, the fender is made up of several distinct parts, one of which is the Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front). Specifically, the Nissan fender splash shield is attached 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 to fit only in certain locations on your vehicle: driver-side front, driver-side rear, passenger-side front, or passenger-side rear. These shields are also made for use in particular Nissan models and years.
Because of where they're mounted in the wheel well, your Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) is your first layer of protection against damage from debris. For example, if a truck speeds past your car and its tires send a rock right into your vehicle's wheel well, your trusty Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) can stop the rock from affecting the headlight assembly, braking system, or undercarriage of your Nissan. Plus, the shield can help protect these parts from the elements, helping delay damage or corrosion.
With time and exposure to moisture, rain, ice, and road salt, your Nissan Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) can break down, which compromises the protection it offers to your vehicle's undercarriage components. Additionally, it may crack or break if you accidentally hit a curb or drive over a pothole. When broken, your Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) can leave part of your vehicle vulnerable to debris, and it will probably create an annoying flapping or grinding noise if it is left to flutter against the tires.
But, the good news is that replacing one of your Nissan's fender splash shields is affordable and easy to handle. You need a Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) that fits your Nissan seamlessly, so it's wise to purchase an authentic part from Nissan Parts. Depending on your vehicle model and year, the process of installing your new part may vary slightly. In most cases, you'll need a screwdriver, fasteners, and your Nissan owner's manual.
Before you do anything else, start by letting your car cool down. Next, remove the bolts and clips that are attached to your current fender shield. If you're planning to reuse the fasteners, stash them in a safe place until you need them again (usually, it's better to purchase new fasteners, just in case the old components are worn out). To test the fit of your new Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front), set it inside your wheel well, checking to be sure that all holes and rivets match the holes on your fender. After you've aligned everything, snap or screw the Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front) into place and secure it! If you need help, head to a local Nissan dealer or authorized service center.
With the right tools and a made-to-fit Fender Splash Shield (Right, Front), your Nissan can hit the road again with peace of mind!
