Dongfeng VL White right front outer side panel assembly 5301660-C4300#8A

Designed to maintain the Dongfeng vl’s original exterior appearance, this panel features a high-quality, factory-matched white paint finish (color code aligned with Dongfeng’s official white hue for VL models). The paint undergoes a professional three-coat, two-bake process: a corrosion-resistant primer, a pigmented base coat (ensuring accurate color matching), and a clear coat for gloss and scratch resistance. This finish not only matches the vehicle’s existing body color perfectly (avoiding visible color discrepancies) but also resists fading, chalking, and discoloration even after long-term exposure to UV rays, rain, and road salt. The smooth, uniform surface texture further enhances the vehicle’s overall aesthetic, making it suitable for both personal use and commercial fleets that prioritize a consistent, well-maintained look

The panel assembly is crafted from high-strength, impact-resistant PP+TD20 plastic (polypropylene reinforced with 20% talc), a material widely used in automotive exterior components for its excellent balance of rigidity and flexibility. This material can withstand minor impacts (e.g., small debris collisions, low-speed bumps) without cracking or permanent deformation, ensuring long-term structural integrity. It also exhibits strong resistance to automotive fluids (e.g., engine oil, coolant, wax) and environmental factors (humidity, temperature fluctuations from -30°C to 80°C), preventing material degradation or warping over time. Additionally, the panel’s thickness is optimized to match the original, maintaining consistent weight and structural support for the front-end assembly

Engineered for hassle-free replacement, this right front outer side panel assembly comes as a fully ready-to-install unit, complete with pre-installed mounting clips, screws, and alignment guides that match the Dongfeng VL’s factory setup. No additional hardware or specialized tools are required—installation can be completed by aligning the panel with the vehicle’s front-end mounting points, securing the integrated clips (via hand pressure) and tightening the pre-positioned screws (using a standard screwdriver). The entire process typically takes 30-45 minutes (even for non-professional users), eliminating the need for time-consuming adjustments or trips to a body shop. The precise alignment guides ensure the panel sits flush with adjacent components, maintaining the vehicle’s original aerodynamic profile and aesthetic symmetry

Beyond its aesthetic role, this outer side panel assembly serves as a critical protective component for the Dongfeng VL’s front-end. It acts as a barrier between the vehicle’s internal front-end components (e.g., wiring harnesses, coolant lines, bumper reinforcement) and external hazards, such as road debris (stones, gravel), mud, and water spray—preventing damage to sensitive parts that could lead to mechanical failures. The panel’s contoured design also contributes to the vehicle’s aerodynamics, reducing wind resistance and improving fuel efficiency (albeit minimally) by directing airflow smoothly along the front side. Additionally, its rigid structure provides secondary impact absorption in low-speed collisions, helping to minimize damage to more expensive underlying components (e.g., the front bumper or fender), thus reducing repair costs over the vehicle’s lifespan
