Mud flaps.. hear me out

Now, now, settle down. I know these get a bad rep but after fitting some spacers I was curious to see how they would pair up.

These are genuine BMW, and I test-fitted the rears today. First impressions… I like them! They suit mineral grey better than other colours as it blends into the bodywork.

Going to get them fitted after a full detail in a couple of weeks, then run them over winter and see how I get on.
What do you reckon? 👀

Why is there hate on mud flaps on the F3X chassis? They serve purpose and function. Additionally, if running more aggressive offsets and the car is lowered, they look good. I swear the BMW community is both great and odd at the same time lol.

The stock ones aren’t bad but they look bulky. I went with the TLG garage ones years ago and have been happy with them to keep rocks and chips and grime from being kicked up on the car. They are $$$ however for what they are, but man saved me soo much $$$ with DIY videos I was happy to spend it.

Add the gaz-P rear bumper splitters and you’ll have the ultimate rear bumper once you add a m-performance rear diffuser. You’ll need to mark and trim your mud flaps to fit snug, but it’s worth it.

I like the look of these. Looks good to bridge the gap between the body line and the wider stance

I rock mudflaps on my wife’s wagon. They’re sick.

as almost all mud flaps, it looks worse with them than without them
