Note

The corrosion protection in the fender seam must be applied on all replacement parts, on which the attached seal is not already present.

The additional corrosion protection seal will prevent "chafe marks" in the fender wheel housing liner.

Apply filler to the interior and exterior areas of the fender.

Once the filler has dried, apply and spread the Sealing Material -D 511 500 A2- in the wheel housing liner contact area (fender seam).
