    Yikes.
    Thanks to this forum, I ordered my flaps 30 minutes before I even got notification from Tesla that they were in stock.

    Welcome to the club. My side panel rockers look just like yours. Didn't notice until few weeks ago (at about the 2000 mile mark). Notified Tesla and to replace both sides its $510 with the install included.

    I think this is the way to go. Tesla front's and these rears. Too bad you have to order two different sets to cover 4 wheels.

    Wow...surprised they covered this. I'm at almost 6000 miles, and took delivery in late June 2020, and just installed the flaps this weekend and noticed the rocker damage as well. I guess it wouldn't hurt to notify them that both of my rockers are pretty chewed up at this point. Not holding my breath they will cover after this much time/miles. My SC is Sterling, VA or I can go to Tyco Rd. Did you get this done in Rockville?

    Yeah 6k is way too much. People have reported damage after less than 1k miles.

    Yes my SC is in Rockville. I told them to hold off on getting them replaced since we are still in winter season and don't want the same issue happening again.

    so if you got the Tesla mudflaps, which aftermarket sets are people buying for the back? And can I just get 2 and not have to buy a 4 pack?

    Tesmanian mudflaps / splash guards for Tesla Model Y (New Product!) I just found this listing. No information on when these might be available.

    If anyone is looking for the OEM Tesla Mudflaps, I'm selling mine for $30 for the pair. Local pick-up only (SF Bay Area).

    - Slightly used (had them on for about 2 weeks)
    - In excellent, like new condition 20210214_002025.jpg 20210214_002000.jpg 20210214_001938.jpg

    Never intended to keep them long term. Was waiting for the molded mud flaps to arrive which I think just look better. Turns out the OEM Tesla flaps also scrape over speed bumps since they hang so low, so I guess that would be another reason for me. lol

    Are these not molded? Of which molded mudflaps do you speak? I’m trying to sort out which mudflaps you think are superior...

    The OEM ones are very straight and flat. The set I just installed are similar to the picture below.

    Not feeling the OEM one's. The Tesmanian ones look way better.

    I still prefer the evmudflaps over these. These seem too small for the car.

    My only concern with these is the front ones are too short to protect the black rocker panels in the paint from damage. I think that’s why the OEM ones or larger.
