The invention relates to an arrangement for extending the fenders on a vehicle body equpipped with a trim detail gripping round an edge of the body at the wheel housing opening. Modification to the wheel suspension of a motor vehicle can require increasing the width of the vehicle at the wheels, which requires an increase of the body width. Fitting fender extenders to the body by means of welding or screwing results in considerable operations on the body, the original rust protection of which is thus deteriorated. The present invention has the object of increasing the body width of a vehicle by fitting fender extenders and/or similar body members. Fitting is readily performed and requires no operations to be made on the body itself. The object is achieved by the trim detail at the wheel housing being at least partially surrounded by a body member which in the transverse direction of the body extends beyond the trim detail and by said member being provided on either side of the edge with abutments gripping round and coacting with abutments or the like on the trim detail for locating and fixing the body member to the trim detail. |
