The Renault Koleos is a compact-to-midsize crossover SUV manufactured by Renault Korea (formerly Renault Samsung Motors) at the Busan plant in South Korea. Sold across Europe, China, Japan, Oceania, the Middle East, South America, and Africa, the Koleos spans two distinct generations: the first-generation HY platform (2009-2016) with a compact footprint of 4,520 mm, and the second-generation HC platform (2017-2019) with an extended 4,672 mm body length. In South Korea — its primary production and sales market — Gen 1 was sold as the Renault Samsung QM5 (chassis code H45) and Gen 2 as the Renault Samsung QM6. AutoBridge supplies aftermarket mud flaps (also called splash guards, mudguards, or wheel arch protectors) precision-engineered to the Koleos's specific front and rear wheel arch geometry, covering both generations.
2009-2016 Koleos (HY) 1st Generation – Compact crossover, Renault Samsung QM5 (H45) in Korea; petrol 2.5L and diesel 2.0L dCi variants
2017-2019 Koleos (HC) 2nd Generation – Mid-size crossover, Renault Samsung QM6 in Korea; petrol 2.0L / 2.5L and diesel 1.6L / 2.0L dCi variants; longer wheelbase and updated wheel arch geometry
The Renault Koleos is driven across highly diverse climate zones — from the humid monsoon seasons of Southeast Asia and South Korea to the arid, dusty roads of the Middle East and the wet European winters. In South Korea and Japan, the Koleos is a popular family SUV frequently exposed to winter road salt and summer typhoon rain; in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, desert sand and gravel throw from highway speeds cause accelerated paint chipping on lower body panels. Across all markets, factory-fitted splash protection on earlier model years (particularly 2009-2013 HY units) tends to be minimal or degraded after a decade of service. Aftermarket mud flaps are an affordable retrofit that prevents stone-chip rust on wheel arches, protects lower door panels from kicked-up debris, and preserves resale value — critical for the Koleos's strong presence in used-car import markets across Africa, the Middle East, and South America.
AutoBridge offers the Koleos mud flap set in multiple material options to match your target market conditions: PP (polypropylene, standard — most cost-effective for wholesale volume orders), PP+TPE (enhanced flexibility for cold-climate regions such as Northern Europe and Russia), TPE (premium, odorless — favored by European and Korean distributors), and ABS (rigid, high-gloss — available for specialty orders). The standard PP soft plastic variant includes a weather-resistant matte black finish and pre-drilled holes that align with the Koleos's factory fastener positions. Installation uses the original mounting points — no drilling required on either generation. Material selection is confirmed at quotation stage based on your distribution region and volume requirements.
Front pair (driver + passenger) — pre-molded to Koleos front wheel arch contour
Rear pair (driver + passenger) — pre-molded to Koleos rear wheel arch contour
Plastic fender fastener clips — corrosion-resistant, matched to original clip slots
U-clip screws — secure attachment for underside mounting tabs
Allen screw with hex key — included for key attachment points
Installation uses the Koleos's existing fender liner fastener positions. No drilling or body modification is required. Standard export packaging; contact us for custom retail-ready packaging options at quotation stage.

The Hijet and the Gran Max—one is the ultimate space-saving product under Japan's micro commercial vehicle regulations, and the other is a globalized model that broke free from those constraints to reach the pinnacle of practicality. Whether navigating narrow Tokyo alleys or driving across the vast Southeast Asian market, they demonstrate Daihatsu's "compact cars, big impact" philosophy through solid quality and continuous generational inheritance.
