Man. I thought $40 for the OEM Tesla ones was a crazy high price to pay for some plastic, $100 is insane.
I'm starting to think think @Ther0ck is friends with the owner of those mudflaps or is getting kickbacks for recommending them. He has no explanation so far as to why they are "garbage" expect for maybe that he threw them away.
Not at all. I don't know the guy. Just that every Tesla owner in QC recommends them. He's a pround owner of a Model 3. He design them in away they don't damage the paint and protect your rocker panel, bottom of your doors and as a bonus solidify what Tesla should of done by now.
I purchased a set (EV Mudflaps) prior to receiving my M3. The material facing the paint is nice but the material on the tire side is marred from milling. I first thought that it was a plastic covering over the material but after speaking with the mfg, I was told that it wasn't and this was normal. "Once I drove around and they got dirty I wouldn't notice it". I was the only one who ever complained about this. Ok, fine. They sent a copy of their return policy and since I had purchased them before my M3 was delivered, I was out of their 2 week return window. I ended up purchasing the Tesla OEM and they look nice and seem to work fine. We primarily have rain so having a lower fitting mud flap wasn't necessary. Apparently others are happy with these but for $120 to the US I expected a higher quality.
Being in the chemical industries for almost 40 years ... IMO... any after-market adhesive tapes for outside uses won't last due to hot/cold cycles and UV lights. There are after-market mudflaps on Amazon that users don't have to drill holes, I think they are better solutions. I am waiting for MYLR and considering after-market retractable "trunk cover" for my wife. Yes I don't like after-market adhesive but in this case the "bar" that holds a retractable cover is always under compression on both sides so it gives adhesives a better chance to work going thru hot/cold cycle
HI, did you buy Basenor mudflaps, and did you encounter any problems while using it? Maybe we can solve it for you.
No. But it has the same layout as the Tesla mudflaps. See this video. All the grime from the road accumulates inside the mudflaps and damages the paint/body of the car. Starts at 30 seconds how terrible the Tesla are.

Maybe they're garbage but not everyone including myself is a fan of the way rally style mud flaps look.
