FAQs

Are these fender flares compatible with all Tesla Model 3 years?

These flares are specifically designed for Tesla Model 3 vehicles from the 2017 to 2022 model years. Compatibility with earlier or later models is not guaranteed.

What material are the fender flares made of?

The fender flares are constructed from durable and wear-resistant ABS plastic, known for its strength and resistance to deformation.

How difficult is the installation process?

The installation is designed to be simple, utilizing adhesive strips for a secure fit. It typically does not require drilling and can be completed by most users with basic tools and care.

Will these flares protect my car from road salt in winter?

Yes, they will provide a barrier against road salt spray and other winter road treatments, helping to keep the lower body panels cleaner and potentially reducing exposure to corrosive elements.

Can I remove the fender flares later without damaging my car's paint?

Yes, they are designed for paint-safe installation. To remove them, gently heat the adhesive with a hairdryer and peel slowly. Clean any residue with an appropriate automotive cleaner.

Do these flares affect aerodynamics?

While designed to follow the car's contours, any aftermarket addition can have a minor effect. However, these flares are generally considered to have a negligible impact on the Model 3's overall aerodynamics for typical driving.

How should I clean the fender flares?

Clean them with a soft cloth and water. A mild car soap can be used for tougher dirt. Avoid abrasive materials or high-pressure washing directly on the flares.

Troubleshooting

Flares do not fit correctly

Double-check that you have the correct model year Tesla Model 3 and that the flares are aligned properly before applying full pressure. Ensure no existing body kit modifications interfere with the fit.

Adhesive not sticking well

Ensure the vehicle's surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before installation. Use a degreaser or isopropyl alcohol for proper surface preparation. Avoid installation in extremely cold or humid conditions.

Flares make noise while driving

This could indicate a loose fit. Re-apply pressure to ensure a secure bond, or check if any part of the flare is rubbing against the tire or bodywork.

Paint damage after removal

While designed to be paint-safe, damage can occur if the adhesive is removed too quickly or aggressively. Gently heat the adhesive with a hairdryer on a low setting to soften it before removal. Clean any residue carefully.

Pros and Cons

  • Provides significant protection against road debris and potential damage.
  • Enhances the vehicle's aesthetic with a custom, stylish look.
  • Made from robust and durable ABS material for long-lasting use.
  • Installation is straightforward and does not harm the original paintwork.
  • Designed specifically for the Tesla Model 3 (2017-2022) for a good fit.

Cons

  • May require precise alignment during installation for a perfect finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These 4-piece wheel fender flares are designed as a direct replacement for the Tesla Model 3 models manufactured between 2017 and 2022.

Setup:

  1. Clean Surfaces: Ensure the wheel arch areas on your Tesla Model 3 are clean, dry, and free from grease or wax.
  2. Test Fit: Temporarily position each flare to confirm alignment before applying adhesive.
  3. Apply Adhesive: Carefully peel the backing from the pre-applied adhesive strips on the flares.
  4. Install Flares: Firmly press each flare into its designated position along the wheel arch. Ensure a secure and even fit.
  5. Curing: Allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours, avoiding car washes or driving in heavy rain during this period for optimal adhesion.

Care:

  • Clean the fender flares regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Mild soap can be used if necessary.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or power washers directly on the flares, as this can damage the material or adhesive.
  • Periodically check the fitment and adhesive bond, especially after significant temperature changes or car washes.
