For most vehicle owners, the header panel is quite the mystery. They've heard about it, they have a vague idea where this part is located, but it's not really something that they can pinpoint right off the bat. If you were to ask a pro mechanic to point out this component to you, he would probably stand in front of your car and gesture at an entire section on your vehicle's front end. And the thing is, he would be right. You see, your header panel is basically what we call the nose of your ride. In most vehicles, this panel encompasses or houses everything from the grille to the headlights. This metal sheet extends from under your ride's hood up until the bumper-not including the bumper, of course. Horizontally, this metal component goes from the start of one headlight to the end of the other. Being found behind your grille and headlamp assemblies, this panel doesn't usually incur enough damage to require replacement. Although, if you do get involved in a hood-bending, bumper-crushing, headlight-shattering front-end collision, then that's the time when you'll need to shop around for a new header panel. Though replacing this component may be a big hassle, the good news is that finding its replacement is a pretty easy affair. There are a lot of online stores that offer top-grade header panels at budget-friendly prices. So rest assured that you'll find a good replacement panel for your ride's front end.
