Fenders

Whether you're restoring a classic or fixing your own ride, CMA's Colonial Nissan always has all the parts you need. Fenders protect your vehicle's mechanical components while providing mounting points for headlights, turn signals, and other accessories. These body panels shield the wheel wells from road debris while directing airflow around the tires for improved aerodynamics. Damaged fenders compromise both protection and appearance, potentially exposing expensive components to road salt, moisture, and debris that can cause corrosion and mechanical problems.

Understanding Fender Functions and Design

Fenders create a protective barrier between your vehicle's wheels and the external environment while providing structural mounting points for various accessories. These panels direct water and debris away from mechanical components in the wheel well area during driving conditions. Your Sentra fenders integrate with the vehicle's aerodynamic design to manage airflow around the wheels and reduce drag. Modern fenders incorporate multiple mounting points for lights, trim pieces, and liner components that require precise positioning for proper function. The fender structure must maintain its shape and mounting integrity despite constant exposure to road vibration, temperature changes, and potential impact damage.

Common Fender Damage Causes

Fenders typically suffer damage from collision impacts, road debris, and corrosion rather than normal wear patterns that affect mechanical components. You'll observe dents, scratches, or rust formation that compromises both appearance and protective function of the fender assembly. Collision damage can affect the fender's structural integrity and mounting points, requiring replacement to ensure proper fit of connected components. Corrosion from road salt and moisture exposure can weaken the metal and create unsightly rust spots that spread over time. Damaged fenders may affect the headlights and other accessories mounted to the panel, requiring careful alignment during replacement procedures.

Benefits of Genuine Nissan Fenders

Genuine Nissan fenders provide exact fitment, finish, and structural integrity that matches your vehicle's original design and safety requirements. At CMA's Colonial Nissan, we maintain inventory of authentic fender panels manufactured to factory specifications with proper mounting points and reinforcement areas. Aftermarket fenders may not provide adequate structural strength or corrosion resistance needed for long-term durability and protection. Generic panels often require modification for proper fit and may not accommodate factory mounting points for accessories and trim pieces. Your Maxima deserves genuine fender components that maintain structural integrity and factory appearance standards. We understand that authentic panels protect your vehicle's mechanical components while preserving its distinctive styling and aerodynamic characteristics.
