Curious if anyone has done side skirts with mud flaps? Considering doing this but would like too see how it would look first. Any pictures of this set up would be greatly appreciated.

I was looking at rpmtesla's side skirts. I was thinking the same too, with the front mud flaps installed, the side skirts might not fit. I'm hoping someone out there has a mud flap/side skirt combo that is molded together.Good timing, I was thinking about this recently too. Based on everything I see identified as an application for MY, it looks like the front mud flaps would be a no-go. Since the rear is separated from the side skirt (back end of rear tire) this should be fine but might not look great.
Which set are you looking at?
Good to know, thanks for confirming.No impact at all. Just had tires rotated recently. Skirts maintain existing height. I am adding the Eibach pro kit next week and that will drop it, so we shall see.
Well I guess for now I'm going to have to stick with the mud flaps until someone makes a mudflap/sideskirt combo. Thank you so much for sharing pics!I just happen to be able to answer. Front flaps do need to be removed. I kept the rear flaps. I did do a trip to Southern Oregon and my rear door panels did get abused from sand/de-icier on the road (even with ppf).Regardless, happy with the look. These are from RPM.

I will be curious to know the set up as well. I took some pictures of the front Basenor flaps to show why they don’t work with the RPM side skirt. The front flap needs to be flat and not wrap under the body as these do. After I add the Eibach springs, I will be back in the mud flap market. I am looking for anyone who may have come across these As I do think flaps are needed. My backs got pretty knocked on a recent trip in the snow.This is the exact setup I was hoping to see. Not sure if this user is on the forums but if you are and happen to see this post, which side skirts and mud flaps did you end up going with?

I'm also looking for this same mud flap/sideskirt combo. Curious to also know which flaps and skirts are used here.This is the exact setup I was hoping to see.

On closer inspection, the skirt might be this two piece variant, similar to the one found here (or might be the same one?):This is the exact setup I was hoping to see.

You might be right. Looked at Rally Armor and they do sit flush. Trying to decide if I can live with the logos (although I found some with blue script) showing and the cheapest I have seen them is $162.50. I have a different set (much less expensive)arriving tomorrow and will give them a shot. If not, Rally Armor it is. The front just kicks up way too much and the back ppf cant protect it all. Just added Eibach springs with Blox 18mm spacers. Should look almost identical to this set up. Will send pictures out once installed and cleaned up.I dug around and found this thread...I am guessing these are the mudflaps used by "denslamodely" to achieve the mudflap + side skirt look...

Maybe the front mud flaps are the OE ones from Tesla….

I just noticed RPM sells a two piece as well as their cf one piece ( I have the one piece). You might be right. I have one set of flaps arriving today and I bit the bullet and ordered the Rally Armor as well. I’ll have pictures out once installed.On closer inspection, the skirt might be this two piece variant, similar to the one found here (or might be the same one?):

When zoomed in, the area I circled looks to be the seam where the two pieces join. Not sure though, could also just be a JPG artifact. I personally want a single piece skirt like the one from RPM.
I should have realized they might have the two piece as well, but only as hydro carbon. Looks good though, but I'm sure the quality in the one piece real carbon fiber you have can't be beat.I just noticed RPM sells a two piece as well as their cf one piece ( I have the one piece).

I spoke with him. The front ones he uses are indeed tesla OEM.These might actually be the ones he's using...too bad tesla only sells the front. I'm leaning towards the really armor with the red text myself.
