Citroen Right Front Fender for Sale in South Africa

Used fenders start around R700 for a C2, R757 for a C3 and roughly R1,581 for an Xsara through our supplier network, with liners at about R721. Send the paint code with your enquiry and we will look for a painted panel in your colour first — that is the version of this job with no spray booth in it, and it typically halves the total.

Two to three hours of workshop time for a straight swap on a C3, Xsara or C5 Aircross once the panel is painted, because it is bolt-on work. If the inner wing or the bumper bracket behind it took damage in the same knock, allow longer — we would rather quote on the full picture after seeing photographs than give you a fender price and a surprise later.

Realistically, no, for almost every Citroen on South African roads. Anti-perforation cover applies only to rust working from the inside out and runs for a limited period from first registration — and the bulk of the local fleet is pre-2016, well past it. Rust that started at a stone chip or after an accident was never covered at any age. Source the panel independently and treat the cause.

The fender is the painted metal panel forming the outside of the car. The liner is the black plastic or felt shield bolted behind it, inside the arch, separating the panel and the engine bay from everything the tyre throws up. They are separate parts at very different prices, and replacing a fender without replacing a damaged liner simply starts the rust clock again on the new panel.

If the paint is unbroken and the dent has no sharp crease, paintless dent repair pulls it and keeps the factory finish — always the best outcome and usually the cheapest. Creased metal, a torn arch lip or any perforation is better replaced. Because used painted fenders are readily available here, replacement often undercuts a new panel plus respray by a wide margin, so ask for both quotes.
