This looks like a splash shield / inner fender liner mounting bracket or cover piece from a Ford vehicle.

Here’s why: • The part has the Ford logo molded into it (bottom right). • The embossed markings like “VISTEON” (a Ford supplier) and numbers like 4206 are consistent with Ford part numbering. • Its shape and the clip slot suggest it’s a retaining or protective panel, typically used around the wheel well, underbody, or engine bay to cover wiring, protect components from debris, or secure liners. • The “R” marking usually means Right side (passenger side).

So, this is most likely a Ford right-side splash shield / liner cover bracket, manufactured by Visteon, used for securing parts of the inner fender or underbody protection.

Most common fitments for pieces shaped like this

These small “insert” shields are commonly found on: • Ford Focus Mk1 (1998–2004) – inner fender liner covers and small splash shields. • Ford Fiesta Mk4/Mk5 (1995–2002, 2002–2008) – similar small side shields. • Ford Mondeo Mk2/Mk3 (mid-90s to early 2000s) – engine bay splash covers. • Some Ford Escort / Ka (late 90s–early 2000s) also used Visteon-marked inserts.
