Look nice. I will be interested on how they perform n preventing debris, mud, etc. Hope you post feedback once you have driven in rain, etc. Was the install easy?

See attached for how it is now, on low suspension. This is about 2" cut off. Totally stock everything, 19” wheels.
To recap. Out of the box these things literally almost touched the ground on low. I cut off 1" or so, still scraped even when cornering in the mountains which probably removed 1/4"-1/2" of material. Then they got ripped off on a speed bump. Then I cut off another 3/4-1" and they still occasionally scrape on low.
So in total at least 2” needs cut off. Note that I'm super familiar with sports cars and low vehicles, I am ultra careful on speed bumps and inclines, trying to go at an angle when possible and don’t brake over speed bumps causing the car to crash down.

After you install one side, put the car in low and check how close they are to the ground before installing the other side. They’re easy to cut with a razor knife.

I think that would take a lot of scrapes. The scraping wouldn't be as big of an issue (to me) if it didnt amplify in the car and sound bad. I think the amount you need to remove depends on 1) what suspension level you drive at 2) how spirited you corner 3) your terrain.
As I previously mentioned, I cut 3/4" and haven't heard a scrape since..but I am working on my safety score for FSD beta, so I am not even close to driving in a spirited manor (for now).
Here is a list of all voice commands (and yes, suspension is one of them). However it says "recognized but not implemented."

Interesting. So it hears you, recognizes the command, then tells you, “I understand you would like me to raise the suspension but I’m not able to execute that procedure at this time”?Here is a list of all voice commands (and yes, suspension is one of them).

Hopefully they will get that fixed before intake delivery, whenever that might happen.
Here is a crowdsourced app for easy reference. Suspension isn't in the "app" one though.

Google docs list that I think feeds the app.

Wow I had no idea you could do that with voice. Voice commands overall suck. Seems like they never work.Here is a list of all voice commands (and yes, suspension is one of them). However it says "recognized but not implemented."

What year car and are you on MCU2? Before I got MCU2 on my 2017, the voice commands always took too long and timed out. Went to MCU2, and that solved the issue. With the Model S refresh? The voice commands work about 99% of the time for me
Have a 2022. It just seems like it doesn't recognize the commands or I have to talk super slow like a robot. Maybe my mic is messed up or maybe I just need to look at the list of commands to see what is possible.

So much interest in mud flaps. Are there other luxary sedans owners who install mud flaps?
