Is it better not to replace the front fender of a car?

[JohnnyAnn]

It is generally advisable not to replace the front fender of a car. Most modern private cars use a unibody structure, and the front fender is part of the car's side panels, forming an integral unit. The front fender is directly welded by the manufacturer using original resistance welding technology. The fender is the outer body panel that covers the wheel, named for its resemblance to a bird's wing in shape and position on older car bodies. Here are detailed introductions related to fenders: Classification: Fenders are divided into front fenders and rear fenders based on their installation positions. The front fender is installed near the front wheel and must ensure the maximum space for the wheel's rotation and movement. Therefore, designers use "wheel travel diagrams" to verify whether the fender's design dimensions are appropriate based on the selected tire model and size. Repair: If the fender only has minor dents or scratches, it is best not to replace it. Small dents on the fender can be repaired through panel beating or repainting.
