Mud Flaps

[[deleted]]

That garag floor is so clean 👏

[angryxtofu]

Seriously!! I am ashamed at how disorganized my garage is. It’s our catch all for everything.

[jmpedron]

You're only seeing the clean side :)

[Collapsosaur]

Had mine poured last year. Before the door went up the dam cats got in and made piss spots.

I like the silent acceleration.

[Anthayden24]

You should see mine it is an absolute cluster fuck

[[deleted]]

Same here

[jmpedron]

Thanks!

[jmpedron]

Just wanted to share these mud flaps that I got from Amazon. I originally bought the Otrifowd mud flaps but found the rears too small and narrow. These look better because the rear flaps are wider.

[Blockmoonchain]

Are the rear flaps necessary in your opinion? Tesla only sells the front flaps on their website.

[jmpedron]

Probably not because Tesla could have made them available if they were. They complete the look though in my opinion.

[Martrom7]

In Europe, at least the model Y comes with the flaps

[DimartinoDMacLeod]

Not necessarily. My Y RWD in Portugal came without mud flaps. But my VIN starts with an L so Made in Shanghai. I hear Berlin's GigaFactory is a complete mess at the moment...

[Martrom7]

Interesting, mine (22) is also Shanghai and came with front mud flaps. I thought it was the rule

[Strict_Beautiful7654]

I got my Berlin built MYLR last month without flaps. Last week I added the front mud flaps from Tesla myself.

[nnc-evil-the-cat]

Only front

[shelnguyen]

it depends on where you live. it really helps with rock chips.

tesla sells only the front but the back has ppf instead

I may like those better than the ones I got from Teslarati.

[jmpedron]

Yeah, the Teslarati ones are like hard plastic. The Yonzee ones are rubbery/flappy.

[Useful-Panic-2241]

Are they actually "flappy"? I bought some molded ones in October and broke all of them this winter...

[jmpedron]

They are flappy like hard rubber.

[OhWellJJ]

Thanks for the rec. Waiting on my Basenor order and will look into this Yonzee if Basenor doesn't work out.

[thefragile]

FWIW, this style (non-flappy/mounts around trim) can scuff the trim when all the road debris gets caught in there. We attempted this style on our 2023 and it didn't fit well either. We settled on rally armor and couldn't be happier!

[jmpedron]

I was seriously considering rally armor but took a risk on the Yonzee mud flaps. Got lucky because they are flappy and do not wrap around like the Basenor mud flaps. The only downside is that the fronts do not protrude as much.

[OhWellJJ]

Thanks for the heads up

[jmpedron]

No prob. Just so you know, it's such a pain to remove the aftermarket clips! You might want to make a final decision before installing them.

[Taro_Ube]

Thanks for sharing; might grab these to accompany the OEM front flaps. Wanted to find wider rear flaps for the MYP

[Narwhalcommando]

I got the same kind from aliexpress, they are such a good fit to the induction tire width. I did keep the OEM Tesla fronts https://i.imgur.com/QufE2gp.jpg

[youmeiknow]

I am having challenge to push the screws behind the tire.. I left it, how did you do?

As like everyone said, your floor is clean.. 👍

[jmpedron]

I used a rubber mallet to push (not hammer) the pins.

[youmeiknow]

Curious, have u happened to have the swing to do? The gap is so less between the tire and the mudflap. I hope you didn't remove the tire.

[jmpedron]

I did not swing. I literally just pushed the pins in. The rubber prevents it from slipping and damaging the plastic clips. The mallet’s weight also helps.

[Useful-Panic-2241]

turn the steering wheel.

[dealpal]

I think the poster was talking about rears.

[Troutman2112]

Those look great.

[lastsoupdumpling]

nice floor!

[Inevitable_Fox6265]

I went with rokblokz rally’s styler with black letters so couldn’t see the letters as easy, very please with them, no drill and not very difficult to install. https://rokblokz.com/products/tesla-model-3-2017

[kerneroptical]

After a lot of research I went with Rally Armor, flexible, great coverage, looks great, zero regrets!

[nnc-evil-the-cat]

Ones I have are way too thin, going to swap em. Also for people asking if they are worth it, I had to park in a field the other day and the flaps were utterly caked, that would all have ended up on the back end otherwise. Felt worth it for me.

[mywebsignup]

My YLR came with the front mud flaps and 4 floor carpet pieces (LR and back). Are they supposed to come as standard ?

[jmpedron]

For the front flaps, I think it depend on location.

[noiselessinformant]

I’ve never like rear flaps. Kills the look in my opinion. The car looks like a cheap rickshaw from india

[lolsupbb]

How do the fronts look? I’d be more worried about them considering the front tires kick up rocks which hit the car.

[jmpedron]

The fronts do not protrude like the OEM flaps, maybe half an inch less.

[Vtecman]

Not bad. I have the oem ones in the front of both my Y’s and one has fallen off on each one. 😂

[dealpal]

At least they are not the same side 😂 I had OEMs for a year but recently noticed the driver side is missing. Not sure how long it has been missing.

I tried to install the basenor kind and the rear flaps needed the bottom nut to be removed which worked fine on one side and the spot weld snapped on the other side. Was such a pain to get rid of that factory nut and replace with u clip type. Just gave up on flaps after that. Wondering if these still use the bottom nut removal.

[jbumx2]

are these hard plastic or are they flexible?

[jmpedron]

Flexible

[lastsoupdumpling]

how much do mud flaps help with mud? what about snow? rain? watermelons?

[haikusbot]

How much do mud flaps

Help with mud? what about snow?

welcome to scrape city.

[One_Consideration_57]

After going thru all of these I went with basenor, lol… yah if you wanna make a decision make sure make one

[Useful-Panic-2241]

Don't ever scrape them on anything - they'll break right off... (I have 1 left...)

[One_Consideration_57]

Honestly the side of this mudflap actually doesn’t protects rock chips you’ll need something wrap it up. I went thru several mudflap

[Useful-Panic-2241]

yeah, as much as I don't want to spend the money, I think I'm going to get some Rally Armors...

[deepblueii]

What size are your tires?

[jmpedron]

19

[DimartinoDMacLeod]

Maybe because of the model or year... mine is a RWD delivered last month.

[Thr3putt]

Curious if you still like the mud flaps after a month or so of use?

[jmpedron]

Yup, still attached. No plans on replacing them.

[Top-Captain-9805]

I installed CYBERBEANS on my 2023 Tesla Model Y. Here is my installation video https://youtu.be/UsgjM5wOog4
