    This is what I found one morning in my driveway. I think a cat was seeking refuge in the engine compartment, and this made some dog(s) go crazy.

    I am not sure what these wheel-well covers are called. There is one hard plastic piece that runs the over the top of the tire for the full length of the fender, and a couple of other soft matte pieces that cover the engine behind the strut.

    Are these just called "wheel-well covers" ??

    No damage to the outside, but in this pic you can (barely) see where the damn dog pulled so hard on the large plastic well part that it actually bent out the inside of the fender where the cover mounts to it.
