Purpose and Fitment

The presented fender is designed as a body part to be mounted in the front, right side area, ensuring proper body line continuity and compatibility with factory mounting points in Mini R55 and R56. Its construction corresponds to solutions used by the manufacturer, thus maintaining correct gaps between parts and proper alignment with the hood, bumper, and doors.

The Ice Blue - B28 color allows for an aesthetic match with the bodywork in the same paint shade, which limits the scope of potential paintwork and facilitates restoring the vehicle to a uniform, visually cohesive state.

Technical and Functional Characteristics

The fender belongs to the group of body structural elements responsible for protecting the front corner of the vehicle from dirt, water, and minor mechanical damage. Its geometry is adapted to the factory wheel arch shape, enabling proper wheel movement in extreme steering positions and cooperation with wheel arch liners and other components mounted in this area.

As part of the Front Fenders category, this element also influences the vehicle's aerodynamics by directing airflow along the side of the body. A correctly selected and installed fender helps reduce air turbulence around the wheel, contributing to driving stability and acoustic comfort.

Condition, Origin, and Benefits of Use

The offered fender is a used part, allowing for economical body repair while maintaining original manufacturer specifications. Choosing a salvaged part is a cost-effective solution and beneficial in terms of fit – the part comes from the same product line as factory-installed Mini components.

Key advantages of using this fender include:

• maintaining the original body geometry in the front right corner,
• color consistency thanks to the Ice Blue - B28 paint,
• compatibility with factory mounting points and hardware in the wheel arch area,
• the possibility of limiting the scope of body and paint repairs.

Application in Body Repairs and Upgrades

The front right fender in Ice Blue - B28 is suitable for both post-accident repairs and replacement of body parts due to corrosion or wear and tear. By retaining the factory shape and dimensions, it's possible to restore the original side profile of the vehicle without the need for structural modifications.

For extensive bodywork involving the replacement of several front-end parts, using an original fender from the same model series facilitates correct gap alignment and fitting of adjacent panels, which is important for both aesthetic and technical reasons.
