Non-Authentic Accessories and Add-On's
It's sunny and dry in the PNW on a day I have free, so I decided to install some parts that have been sitting since October.
After the mudflap miss (see above) I was hopeful, the, wheel arches would turn out better.
ABS Black Car Wheel Fender Trim...
They seemed to be a good fit. I was, taking my time, lining everything up, being gentle, but on the first (LF) arch snapping the front clip in, and:
This, was a gentle bump with the heel of my hand above the break point directly over the clip. The tab was inserted behind the lower panel. It's just brittle plastic.
I do not recommend, but if you are inclined to save $$ be sure you try to install before your 30 day return window expires, so you can send it back if it breaks.
Update: since I can't return them and already had the one off, I decided to try to install anyway. Here's the culprit:
See the plastic nub near my thumb? It looks like it should fit into an alignment hole in the fender. But there isn't one. 😑 Pretty sure, that's what snapped it.
I'm not sure, how much the tab would help, but I'm not thrilled with the alignment either.
If anyone in the Seattle area wants these hit me up I'm going to pass on trying to install the other 3.
Update 2: definitely a different plastic formula than the OEM. During removal (gently, unlike PUK videos) it snapped when pulling out the last clip.

Has anybody used these, or familiar with the company?
