Splash Guards '24 Competition

Are there any splash guards / mud flaps that fit the '24 Comp Xdrive? TLG don't fit the rear as the wheel liner sits well behind the lip of the wheel well. Anything available that fits?

This. Just don't screw the rear flap screws in all the way.

The problem with that solution is they'll not be securely affixed the way they're intended. Bottom line is they don't fit as outlined.

Have you watched the installation video? This is the way that they're supposed to be installed.

(I happen to agree that it isn't a great approach, and I've toyed with the idea of putting some sort of spacers back there, but it absolutely is the way that they're intended to be installed.)

As others have mentioned, it is secure even though it is not threaded all the way; from what I recall, it is a long screw that has sufficient thread to engage the opening.

With large plastic spacers you could probably make it work, but if you watch the video, the white G80 has the well liner flush at the edge of the wheel well with screws attaching it. Now, it sits inside the wheel well with hex bolts attaching it.

To be honest they came with a TV Mounting set 😂😂😂. But I’ve seen similar ones in Home Depot. Mines are plastic, about half a inch in length.
