white and whiter
if you have 19" and do lock-to-lock the rubber will touch the plastic shield. If you have 18" it shouldn't touch. not to mention 17".

MJ, I thought you would've popped it back in after I told it it was loose that day? could've save the $40 lol.

Hilarious.

That's so weird that this happened to you with the 17's. Those rims were made to fit our chassis perfect.

I wouldn't be surprised if something (other than your tire) "helped" the liner tear apart.

Part should be about $20 from Duval online.

MJ50 - Did you get the inner fender fit perfectly? My dealer said that they had discontinued making the fender cover for pre-05 W203. My shop had to modify it to make a tight-fit.
