What this part does

The fender liner is a molded protective shield installed directly inside the wheel well of the vehicle. It serves as a physical barrier that prevents water, mud, road salt, and gravel from being thrown by the tires into the engine bay, headlight housings, and sensitive wiring harnesses. Beyond protection, this panel directs airflow to assist with brake and engine cooling while significantly reducing road noise entering the cabin. If the inner fender cracks, tears, or is ripped away completely, corrosive elements can reach vulnerable electrical components, and the vehicle may experience increased aerodynamic drag and wind noise at highway speeds.

Before you order

Match the OEM part number 51717340201 exactly to your original part before purchasing. BMW utilizes several different variations of the wheel well liner for the G11 and G12 chassis, depending on whether the car is equipped with the M Sport aerodynamics package, auxiliary coolers, or specific wheel sizes. Check the mounting locations on your front bumper and fender, as the factory expanding rivets and screws used to secure this shield are often torn out when a liner is damaged. Replacement hardware is not included unless specifically shown in the photographs.
