Good day

I just bought a VW Passat 2003 model, v6 2.8litre 4 motion. I've been trying to find the name for this side panel that is missing from the car.

This is the passenger's side which is missing on the rear tire.
Tire Automotive tire Automotive exterior Vehicle Alloy wheel



Here's a photo of the driver's side that is not missing on the rear tire.

What is this plastic panel called? I can't seem to find it when I'm trying to search for it, but then again English is not my native language so I suspect I'm searching for the wrong thing.

Thanks for the info. Now I need to determine if I need satin black or black.

I only need to replace this on the passenger's side on the rear tire, so I guess I need the "B Side Member Extension right rear", or what's the difference between the A side and the B side? I apologize, I'm a bit confused.

Are there any online part shops that offer this part and international shipping? I need to get this part to Iceland.

A and B is the color. A for Satin and B for plain black. They are 9 digit main part numbers and the letters that come after denote color.

If you pry off one of yours that you still have, the part number of that one should tell you which black you need. Have a magnifying glass handy, as VW sometimes makes those part numbers REALLY small.
