Rear Mudguard Assembly (Rear Fender) – Black for Royal Enfield Meteor 350 (Verify by Part No.) – RAQ00282/A

Royal Enfield RAQ00282/A is a rear mudguard assembly (rear fender) in black, designed to restore OEM protection and factory alignment after a bent/cracked mudguard, accident damage, or rusted mounting points. A genuine mudguard matters because the panel curvature, mounting holes, reflector/number-plate alignment, and stiffness directly affect rattles, tyre clearance, and rear splash protection—common issues with low-grade aftermarket fenders.

This part is commonly searched as rear mudguard, rear fender, back mudguard, mud guard, tail fender, and mudguard assembly for Meteor 350. Use cases include: (1) replacing a damaged rear fender after a fall, (2) correcting misalignment that causes tyre rub or number-plate vibration, and (3) restoring the bike for resale/insurance repairs with OEM-grade finish.

Before you buy: match your existing part number to RAQ00282/A (or confirm by VIN/old-part photo) to avoid wrong ordering.

FAQs 

Q1 (Fitment): How do I confirm RAQ00282/A fits my bike?
Check your existing mudguard’s inner side / invoice / OEM box label for RAQ00282/A. If unavailable, share VIN or clear photos of the old mudguard mounts + number-plate bracket area—panel shape and mounting points are model-specific.

Q2 (Fitment): Is this only for Meteor 350?
A major dealer listing explicitly states Meteor 350 fitment . However, because the official RE spares portal requires JavaScript and cannot be validated here , treat fitment as confirm-by-part-number. Order only if your old part number matches RAQ00282/A.

Q3 (Comparison): OEM vs aftermarket rear mudguard—what’s the difference?
OEM typically matches factory curvature, hole positions, and finish consistency. Aftermarket panels often cause vibration, misalignment, paint mismatch, and stress cracking due to imperfect stamping.

Q4 (Installation): What should a mechanic watch out for during installation?
Dry-fit first. Do not overtighten mounting fasteners; confirm tyre clearance, number-plate alignment, and cable/reflector routing before final torque.

Q5 (Symptoms): What problems does a new rear mudguard solve?
Bent fender rubbing the tyre, rattling number plate, broken mounts, rear splash on pillion, and misaligned rear fixtures.

Q6 (Returns-prevention): What photos should I send you to confirm before shipping?
Send (1) old mudguard front & side profile, (2) underside mount points, (3) number-plate bracket region, and (4) any label/part number. This prevents ordering the wrong platform/color variant.
