Womala Front Left Fender OE 30796494 Front Wing for Volvo XC90 03- Auto Body Parts

• Material: High-tensile steel (for 2003–2014 models) or aluminum alloy (for later variants, where weight optimization is prioritized). Both materials undergo electrophoretic coating (anti-corrosion treatment) and primer application at the factory, ensuring resistance to rust, road salt, and moisture—critical for long-term durability, especially in harsh climates.
• Precision Design: Stamped or molded to exact OE dimensional standards, with pre-drilled holes for mounting (to the chassis, bumper, door, and hood) and cutouts for components like the front left headlight, side marker light, and wheel well liner. Unlike generic aftermarket fenders, it eliminates gaps (between the fender and adjacent body panels) or misalignment (which disrupts aerodynamics and aesthetics) and matches the XC90’s original body contour perfectly.
• Aerodynamic Optimization: The fender’s curved surface is engineered to reduce wind drag around the front wheel well, minimizing road noise at high speeds and supporting the XC90’s overall aerodynamic efficiency—an often-overlooked benefit compared to uncalibrated replacement parts.

Core Functions

• Protect Underbody & Suspension: Acts as a physical barrier between the front left wheel and the vehicle’s interior/underbody, blocking gravel, mud, and road salt from hitting vulnerable components (e.g., front suspension control arms, brake lines, wiring harnesses)—preventing scratches, rust, and premature wear.
• Maintain Exterior Aesthetics & Structural Integrity: Shapes the XC90’s front-end profile, filling the gap between the bumper, door, and hood to create a seamless, factory-finished look. As a structural component, it also reinforces the front-left body, providing additional support to the headlight and bumper assemblies.
• Resist Corrosion & Impact: The anti-corrosion coating and high-strength material withstand daily wear (e.g., minor stone chips) and environmental damage, ensuring the fender retains its shape and appearance without rusting or warping over time

1. Confirm the vehicle’s production year and trim level via VIN—early XC90 variants (2003–2014) use steel fenders, while later models (2015–2016) may have aluminum fenders; this OE part is calibrated for material consistency with the original.
2. Reference the XC90’s official service manual to verify mounting hardware (bolts, clips) and installation sequence—incorrect mounting can create gaps between the fender and door/bumper, leading to wind noise or water ingress.
3. Note this is the front left-side fender; do not interchange with front right-side fenders—side-specific contours (e.g., headlight cutout position, wheel well shape) will cause misfit, compromising protection and aesthetics.
4. After installation, professional painting (matching the vehicle’s original color) and clear-coating are required to ensure color consistency and long-term corrosion resistance—OE fenders are supplied with primer only.*

A: Signs of a failing bumper bracket include visible damage or deformation, misaligned bumper panels, unusual noises from the front end, or if the bumper appears loose or sagging on one side.

A: For optimal results, we recommend professional installation. Key considerations include ensuring proper alignment of all mounting points, checking for additional damaged components, and verifying all fasteners are properly torqued to specification.
