Types of fenders:

Half bumper types
Drip mounting Area:
It is the important mounting unite of the fender. it is connected with the engine compartment; therefore, the lot of design constraints are to be followed while designing the fender
While designing the drip area we have to initially leave 200-300 mm for cowl top
Sill Mounting location
Sill is the panel directly below the bottom of the door supporting the floor and may be used to combine the floor and the body . The bottom end of the fender is mounted on the sill body for reinforcement of the fender panel , thus the sill mounting position is designed with holes and emboss
