ABSTRACT:
A front end covering for a motor vehicle has air conducting paths which extend adjacent to the roadway on both sides from the vehicle front in the direction of the front wheels. The air conducting paths extend next to one another and are curved in the vertical direction of the vehicle, one air conducting path ending in front of the front wheel and the other air conducting path being constructed as a groove directed towards the interior side of the wheel which has a cross-section open towards the roadway. The other air conducting path is constructed on the bottom with an upwardly extending guiding surface which is curved in front of the front wheel in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle convexly with respect to the roadway. In this case, the air conducting path is curved in front of the front wheel concavely with respect to the roadway against the curvature of the guiding surface, and the distance between the air conducting path and the roadway is increasingly reduced, whereby a good aerodynamic flow around the wheel is achieved as well as a good cooling of the brakes.
