BBPeik Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 So my drivers front fender liner and the underside engine cover are both in need of some help. I have looked and rock auto has them for cheap. Has anyone used these parts from them? I would love to buy from the dealer, but they are pricey in comparison. Any other places you could recommend? Thanks in advance Brendan My someday I will be done with it thread.
jackal8788 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I've had good luck with Rock Auto parts in the past. They are a reputable source. VF54 to 20G to VF54 to 18G build thread
Zee199969 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 fredrik94087 had to replace one of his fender liners as well. You could shoot him a PM to see where he sourced his liner. My "Build"
DJMajickMan Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Parts.com has had some good prices for parts lately. I got my right hand mud guard (fender liner) for about $58 shipped. Part number for reference: 59120AJ00A
BBPeik Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Thanks for all the helpful info. I will check out parts.com as well. My someday I will be done with it thread.
mcg_ Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 BTW, buy stock, not replicas.... I've learned this the hard way....
BigBopper Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Just curious ... What have been the reasons for those that have had to replace damaged fender liners? - Snow & Ice - Wheel & Tire size issues - Road Debris - Road Kill/Animals (Racoon (Rutchard)) - ???
BBPeik Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Mine was kinda tweaked when I got it. That being said I have removed it a couple of times and on both of those occasions one of the clip holes tore a bit. Basically the holes are too big for the clips. Not sure if others are the same, but that is my issue. My someday I will be done with it thread.
Rutchard Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 - Road Kill/Animals (Racoon (Rutchard)) Actually, the raccoon just demolished the bumper cover But when the front of the liner isn't properly attached to the bumper cover, at high speeds it will eject itself. Second one came off after getting a cone stuck in there during an autox and was too torn to go back on.
mcg_ Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 What have been the reasons for those that have had to replace damaged fender liners? Presumably, low speed front impact (prior to my ownership - this was my last LGT, a 4th Gen) where the front bumper cover was replaced but not the fender liners (the front portions of which were torn to shreds).
jojorios Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Just curious ... What have been the reasons for those that have had to replace damaged fender liners? - Snow & Ice - Wheel & Tire size issues - Road Debris - Road Kill/Animals (Racoon (Rutchard)) - ??? Somehow part of mine go loose and managed to get caught under the tire while driving. Didn't realize anything even happened until I was slowing down for a light coming off the highway and all of the sudden I heard the tire rubbing against something. When i looked it was what was left of the lining touching the tire.
matts_pats Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 I have replaced 2 fenderliners, both right side. road debris, piece of metal came out from under the car infront of me at 90's mph. my fender liner tore out and hit the front of the m3 behind me. we both pulled over, i thought the same thing that hit me hit him.. wasnt til next day i realized that my fenderliner was gone..(glad i didnt have to pay for that) went back and found it. anyways $65 at dealer.
Unsp0kn Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 I've bought 3 liners for 2 different cars off Rock Auto, have been satisfied with them each time. All my damaged ones were from ice build up, which I try to knock loose during the winter and I park in a heated garage, so it does get time to melt out.
BBPeik Posted April 30, 2015 Author Posted April 30, 2015 ^^^ Great to hear. I will be ordering from them I guess. Thanks a lot My someday I will be done with it thread.
dawkins20 Posted May 19, 2017 Posted May 19, 2017 Necro-thread bump, but when you guys got these from rock auto did you get the OEM part or the much cheaper version. Honk the price difference is 48 vs 13 so not insubstantial, but not worth it if the fit is a PITA for the non OEM
Sarang Posted May 19, 2017 Posted May 19, 2017 I've replaced a fender liner and the under engine plastic with non oem. They've been fine. Good fit, sturdy seeming plastic.
tuck16 Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 Are there two separate part #'s for the under cover for the engine? A raccon got me this weekend and the smaller piece that is directly under the engine is half gone, the larger part that attaches all the way up to the bumper is fine. Can i replace just that part or are both pieces included? It looks like there are two part numbers, but i am not sure. https://parts.bestbuysubaru.com/a/Subaru_2012_Legacy25L-TURBO-6MT-4WDGT-Limited-Sedan/49256972__6030549/UNDER-COVER--EXHAUST-COVER-UNDER-COVER-FRONT-10MY-12MY/B14-572-03.html Thanks
