Fenders

Replace Damaged Fenders to Protect Your Vehicle

The INFINITI City of Queens parts team knows what it takes to keep your vehicle running great. Fenders are the curved body panels that cover your front and rear wheel openings, protecting mechanical components from road spray, mud, and debris. These panels take constant abuse from rocks kicked up by tires, parking lot scrapes, and rust formation in areas where salt is used on roads. Dented or rusted fenders compromise both appearance and protection, allowing damage to spread to more expensive components underneath.

Common Causes of Fender Damage

Fenders sustain damage through multiple sources during normal vehicle operation. Minor collisions and parking lot impacts create dents, creases, and paint damage that expose bare metal to moisture. Rust develops from the inside out when road salt and water collect in seams and crevices where it cannot drain properly. Stone chips from highway driving remove paint in small spots that expand into larger rust areas over time. Tire contact during tight turns or when overloaded can rub against fender liners and create holes. Poor quality repairs using body filler crack and separate as temperatures change. Mounting brackets that secure fenders to the frame corrode and break, causing panels to shift out of position. Age-related metal fatigue creates stress cracks around headlight openings and mounting points. Replacement typically becomes necessary between 100,000 and 150,000 miles in rust-prone regions, though accident damage can necessitate earlier replacement.

The Advantage of Genuine INFINITI Fenders

Generic aftermarket fenders use thinner gauge steel that dents more easily and lacks proper corrosion protection. Genuine INFINITI fenders match exact contours and mounting points for vehicles like the QX80 and Q50, eliminating gaps and alignment issues during installation. Factory fenders include all necessary brackets, clips, and properly positioned holes for lighting assemblies. Cheap replacements arrive with incorrect wheel opening sizes or missing provisions for factory equipment. We provide authentic fenders with factory primer and proper metal treatment.
