Oh thanks! Yeah it's a lovely garage door for light, that's for sure. The sun hits that side of the house in the afternoon, which is perfect.

Are those garage door panels made of safety glass and does it weigh a lot more than a standard metal roll up garage door ?
There is a house about a mile from me that have the same garage doors and I have always admired it. Nice choice !!

It definitely weighs some! Not sure how much. Not sure if safety glass (though assume so). House is pretty new and “came with it”.

Do you know if it retains the blue color after cooking ? The only reason I ask is, I went to a Wolf appliances cooking demonstration and they mentioned there was no naturally occurring food that was blue. They challenged us to prove them wrong.....

I removed all my tape as they were coming apart anyway. They seem to stay in place fine without tape, both front and rear. Give it a try.
Got the shorter front version (thanks Mike!) and it solved my driveway scraping problem. There's still a slight scrape with a full load of passengers though, but I can live with that.
I didn't use tape on mine, but every time I've had to attach something with double-sided tape on a car, I've used 3M Automotive Super Strength Molding Tape. I've never had anything fall off with that, despite being exposed to winter/summer/rain/snow/heat/sand/mud/you name it.

So, how do blue mushrooms and Wolf appliances relate to this Group Buy mud flap thread? Is someone thinking about using these blue mushrooms as Vegan Flaps?!

FYI.
Thanks Jebinc for organizing this buy.
I installed the tsolutions on my Model 3 and the eBay/Chinese version on my wife's.
I much prefer the eBay version, so I have ordered a second set to replace my original tsolution flaps. I just cannot keep them secured via the doublesided tape at the top of the rears and although Trump would diss me, I prefer the look and fit of the Chinese.
Like I said, in case anyone is interested in comparing the two, this is where I came out.

No worries, and thanks. I tried both sets as well, and currently have the Chinese ones installed - on top of PPF (needed, in my opinion). Mike sent me a shorter set of front flaps, which I'm grateful for. I might switch back to the Tsolutions flaps for winter as I think the cupped design of the Chinese ones may be problematic with heavy snow/slush packing them up, etc. The Tsolutions are better equipped for shedding snow than the Chinese ones - if we can get them to stay stuck on the car!

Started with your post with the blue donut....
It is one inch shorter. If you are not having driveway or speed bump issues, the longer length protects more of your paint than the shorter ones. As the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it...”

As much as I thought the rears would break loose from the tape, they haven't yet. And they've been on a month now. I guess the key was warm temperature, and pressure on the tape for 60 seconds a side to fully bond it. If it comes loose, though, I have some stronger tape I can use.
Yes, Mike couldn’t emphasize enough in his instructions that a 60 second firm press is required for proper adhesion. The flaps should shed winter’s snow and grime well!
