This item was a "new" condition and "actual" Hyundai "type" fender liner, made of the compressed fibre board that Hyundai units are made of. However, the unit DID NOT have a Hyundai Parts number sticker on it, so it was not technically a "Genuine" Hyundai part. This came out of the same factory, was a prototype, or factory second, or an acceptance sample. For my purposes, fit and function were perfect, but I will always have to worry a tiny bit about "why its not quite Genuine." Not OK.
