No, that's wrong! A "fender" is a "wing"!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_(vehicle)

"Fender is the US English term for the part of an automobile, motorcycle
or other vehicle body that frames a wheel well. In British English, the
fender is called the wing (usually only refers to the panels over the
front wheel arches, in modern cars, since the rear 'fenders' are more an
integral part of the car's body shape) or a mudguard."
