Instructions:
Step 1: Remove the Front Wheel
- Use a 10mm socket to loosen and remove the lug nuts on the front wheel.
- Once loosened, use your hands to pull the wheel hub off the wheel studs.
- Set aside the wheel and prepare to uninstall the Fender Well Liner.
Step 2: Remove Fender Liner
- To take out the fender well liner, begin by removing the screws with a Philips Head Screwdriver.
- Take out the plastic screws by applying a flathead screwdriver.
- Once taken out, set them aside.
Step 3: Remove the Old Fender
- There are some bolts you should take off to remove the fender.
- To remove the bolts, use the 10mm socket and disconnect them.
- The bolts are found beneath the vehicle and along its inner side towards the door.
- Once removed, gently pull the fender forward to remove it.
- It is okay if the wheel well liner is removed first, as it can always be reinstalled.
Step 4: Install Fender Mudguard
- Put the fender's liner into place.
- Place the fender mudguard so it covers the wheel and install it.
- Check that the fender mudguard is correctly positioned.
- Secure it to the vehicle by pushing the plastic rivets through the corresponding holes in the fender and wheel well.
Step 5: Reattach the Fender
- Put the fender in its place.
- Ensure the fender is perfectly positioned.
- Screw in the bolts that you removed earlier to fix the fender in its rightful position.
Step 6: Reinstall Wheel and Fender Liner
- Put the wheel back onto the hub of the wheel.
- Tighten the lug nuts of the wheel. Make sure they are screwed up tightly in a crisscross pattern.
- Put the remaining fender well screws and rivets back in place.
Note:
- Before placing the fender, ensure all rust and debris are removed.
- After everything has been reattached, take a step back and view the work critically. Is the fender sitting correctly? Are there any gaps? Is everything secure?
