Like many other luxury cars, the Lexus IS300 has body panels that are well integrated. Although comprised of different body panels, the outer appearance of the Lexus IS300 is almost seamless. It is a very streamlined vehicle with smooth and sexy body contour. The body panels are well-integrated that junctions between panels are almost totally invisible, creating the illusion that the whole body of the car is molded as a single unit. Most of the body panels are indistinguishable from the others. For instance, the Lexus IS300 fender is well-integrated that it almost merges completely with the rest of the body panels of the vehicle.
An automobile such as the Lexus IS300 has four fenders, one for each wheel. An automobile fender is an integral part of the automobile body. It is curved underneath, arching a few inches above the wheel. It main purpose is to shield the under chassis of the vehicle from puddle water spurts, mud spurts, road grits, and other debris. It re-channels the road debris and grits that are hurled by the rapidly spinning wheel. The fender’s curve, arching structure allows the road debris to be deflected back to the road. In this manner the under chassis components such as the fuel tank, transmission shaft and oil drain are protected from impacts from road grits that are hurled by the spinning wheels.
Small projectiles such as stones and road chips may be hurled by the wheels. The fenders deflect back these projectiles. The projectiles may damage the under chassis components by denting them or clogging them. For instance, some small stones may get lodged between the joints of the transmission shaft. The transmission shaft may slow down or be misaligned as a result. If the transmission shaft becomes clogged or misaligned, it will not be able to effectively transmit the mechanical output of the engine to the wheels of the automobile. The transmission shaft may overheat due to added friction. On the other hand, mud spurts are also equally damaging. Mud may cause the under chassis components to become corroded.
In most luxury vehicles such as the Lexus IS300, the fenders are inconspicuous as separate body panel component. Fenders are both functional and decorative components. As decorative components, fenders accentuate the streamlined body of the vehicle. Fenders hide the unattractive structure of the wheel and axle assembly as well as the frames of the chassis. Although fenders are designed to resist deterioration brought about by corrosion, other factors such as accidents may render the fenders irreparably damaged. If you are looking for aftermarket fender replacements, you have come to the right place.
