Product Information

Mercedes-Benz Fender diagram for AMG GT C, AMG GT

A fender splash shield (also called an inner fender liner) is a protective panel mounted inside the wheel well, between the fender and the engine bay. It shields critical components—such as wiring, belts, suspension, and the engine bay—from water, mud, rocks, and road debris. It also helps improve aerodynamics and keeps dirt from accumulating. Over time, splash shields can break, loosen, or wear out due to impacts and exposure to the elements.

• Loose or missing shield – rattling, flapping noises, or visible gaps inside the wheel well.
• Damage or cracks – shield is broken, torn, or hanging down after impact with road debris or curbs.
• Increased debris exposure – more dirt, mud, or water entering the engine bay, leading to corrosion or component damage.

About Genuine Mercedes

In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Mercedes-Benz for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Mercedes-Benz logo.
