A rear paneling for a road vehicle has U-shaped extruded profiles () mounted on the crossmember of the road vehicle and runners fit next to the reversing camera () for raising the reversing camera () over a solid body colliding with the rear paneling ().

An air guiding device is provided for regulating air flow through at least one air inlet opening in a front cowling of a vehicle. The at least one air inlet opening is arranged laterally in the front cowling and, in a closed state, is covered completely to the outside by the air guiding device. The air guiding device has a retaining frame and slats arranged movably in the retaining frame. The slats are mounted movably in the retaining frame and the angle of incidence of the slats can be changed by a servo motor that is connected to an adjusting mechanism, in such a manner that an air flow approaching the at least one air inlet opening is at least partially guided around the vehicle. A method also is provided for regulating an air flow in proximity to the front cowling of a vehicle.

A front end module for a motor vehicle substantially contains a downwardly open assembly support which is connected to a crash cross-member via lateral connecting limbs, and the two components form a rectangular, closed frame. A further, lower crash cross-member which likewise forms a rectangularly closed frame is connected to the crash cross-member.

Inlet openings at the frontal region of a vehicle have actuable transversely oriented pivoting lamellae disposed behind them. The lamellae guide an air flow to a vehicle radiator in a targeted manner. The pivoting lamellae are connected to an actuating device with control linkages that are articulated to one another via deflection levers for an upper and a lower lamella unit. The upper pivoting lamellae are adjusted at an angle which is different than the lower pivoting lamellae. The upper pivoting lamellae can be set in each case as a unit jointly with the lower pivoting lamellae as a further unit.

A transversely aligned support part is arranged between an assembly support of a vehicle body and a front part. The support part is connected to the assembly support via bolt and clip elements, and the front part is fastenable to the support part by bolts in a manner such that it can be vertically aligned via adjusting elements.

A device is used for holding and mounting a front/rear panel to a side component of a vehicle, for purposes of reinforcing and housing vehicle aggregates in the front/rear panel of a vehicle; in order to allow a simple mounting of the front panel to a side component. The panel is provided with a mounting profile with clamping brackets that can be attached to corresponding clamping elements of a guide rail in the side component.
