What is the name of the shield above the wheel of a sedan?
1 Answers
The shield above the car wheel is called the inner wheel cover. This is an arc-shaped plastic panel installed behind the outer frame of the wheel. The material used is generally rubber, while some mudguards are made of engineering plastic. Comparatively, rubber mudguards are of better quality. Here are the details: 1. Installation position: Generally, the mudguard protrudes about 5cm from the body. It not only enhances the overall aesthetics of the car but also effectively prevents sand or particles splashed during driving from damaging the car's paint surface. 2. Installation impact: The mudguard will reduce the car's ground clearance. Since the car's chassis is already relatively low, installing a mudguard will affect the car's passability. Sometimes, the car tires may carry small stones or mud blocks, which can be thrown onto the mudguard during driving, creating significant noise inside the car.
