W166 mud flaps

Any install mud flaps on their GLE? I’m thinking about adding some to my 2018 with running boards and wondering if anyone has some photos of how they look, and also where you bought yours. Dealer? Amazon?

Thanks Everyone.

Amazon!

This is for GLE43 with standard "AMG line exterior". This package was also standard on GLE400 and optional on GLE350.

Front mud guards blend in very well with running boards and are hardly noticeable. Needless to say, they are not installed for looks, but rather to help keep sides cleaner, which they do.

From what I've seen, the only flaps available are those that integrate with running boards. If anyone know of a set (particularly fronts) that are designed to fit properly without running boards, I'd appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

According to Amazon, those don't fit. Perhaps, with Amazon's fairly liberal return policy, I may try them out anyway to see if they fit.

If it is a standard bodywork (without AMG exterior styling), then they won't fit (I'm sure there are standard body mudguards on Amazon).

There are plenty of non-custom products out there, but I don't want to compromise by installing poorly fit flaps.

Pictures above are on my car. It is 100% custom fit product made specifically for GLE43 and AMG styling GLE400/350 with (or without) running boards, utilizing original MB fitting clips and attachment points, at a fraction of OEM cost, just without MB logos.

The problem for me is that I have a standard GLE350 (no AMG of GLE43 package), and there doesn't seem to be a custom product to serve my needs.
