If your 2023+ Tesla Model 3’s left front fascia and fender have
started to pull apart—leaving a visible gap, making a rattling
noise over bumps, or even shifting out of alignment—this CFN
left-hand front center fascia-to-fender bracket is the precise fix.
As a CFN branded part (not Tesla OEM), it’s engineered to match the
2023+ Model 3’s unique front-end geometry, replicating the original
bracket’s shape, mounting points, and strength to rejoin the fascia
and fender seamlessly.
Unlike broader reinforcement parts, this bracket has a
hyper-specific role: it’s the “bridge” between the left front
fascia (the bumper’s outer panel) and the left fender (the body
panel covering the front wheel). On the 2023+ Model 3, this
connection is critical for maintaining the front end’s sleek,
gap-free look—Tesla’s design relies on tight alignment between
fascia and fender to avoid breaking its aerodynamic lines. A
cracked or missing bracket here doesn’t just look unkempt; it can
let the fascia shift forward or the fender edge lift, creating wind
noise at high speeds or even catching on road debris.
This CFN bracket uses the same tough, lightweight nylon composite
as the factory part—rigid enough to hold the fascia and fender in
place through daily driving (from potholes to highway vibrations)
but flexible enough to avoid cracking under minor stress. Every
tab, hole, and contour lines up exactly with the 2023+ Model 3’s
left front center mounting points: the top edge bolts to the
fender’s inner lip, the bottom edge clips to the fascia’s
reinforcement, and the middle slot aligns with the front frame’s
guide pin. No modifications needed—just a direct swap for the old
bracket.
It also safeguards against long-term issues: by keeping the fascia
and fender tightly joined, it prevents water, road salt, and dust
from seeping into the gap between the two panels. That’s key for
avoiding rust on the fender’s metal edges or corrosion on the
fascia’s internal clips—problems that can turn a small alignment
issue into a costly repair later. Even if your Model 3 hasn’t been
in a collision, age-related wear on the original bracket can cause
slow separation—this replacement stops that before it worsens.
Installing it is manageable for DIYers with basic tools. First,
you’ll need to loosen the left front fascia’s lower edge (using a
trim tool to avoid scratching paint) and remove the small access
panel inside the left wheel well. This lets you reach the old
bracket, which is held in place by two small bolts and a plastic
clip. Remove the old part, line up the CFN bracket with the fender
and fascia mounting points, fasten the bolts, and snap the clip
into place. Tighten the fascia back down, and the left front gap
disappears—restoring the Model 3’s factory-aligned look.
Note: This bracket is exclusive to the left-hand side of 2023+ Tesla Model 3s. It won’t fit 2022 or older Model 3s
(different front-end panel spacing) or right-hand side positions.
It’s perfect for fixing fascia-fender gaps, stopping rattles, or
replacing a damaged original bracket—keeping your 2023+ Model 3’s
front end tight, quiet, and true to its design.
