I apologize everyone, I've been contacting multiple sources on getting these made but everyone I've reached is quoting me 6k-8k just to make them. I don't see myself selling anywhere near the amount just to break even so unfortunately I will not be able to reproduce them😓

I greatly apologize to everyone that's taken the time to sign up. If anyone has a way to make them at a better cost I'd be happy to work something out and supply the initial mud flaps to create the molding, pls feel free to let me know

///M FORCE ONE · 10-13-2020, 06:43 PM

If not, I guess... the bidding war begins🤷🏻

I have both front and rears, bid starting at: $120 for the set if anyone wants them

gary_william · 10-13-2020, 09:04 PM

Couldn't these be 3D printed?

I wasn't too sure if the community would like the material, I can look into it and see if I can get them printed if people are interested in it

lemansblau135is · 10-14-2020, 07:38 AM

I'd give you $120. Pm or contact me at wmchiao@hotmail.com

highbrowed · 10-14-2020, 02:42 PM

Are they new or used? Do you have pictures?

PopsnBurbles · 10-15-2020, 07:32 AM

I'll take the mud flaps for $200, I'll pick them up too if you want.

Personally, I would paint them so I'm not too worried about them being printed. While I don't know much about 3d printing, what I've seen points to their being a difference between hobbyist printing and more professional efforts. Id like to think we could find a professional to print for a reasonable price.

sparkyblue · 10-16-2020, 02:43 AM

Please, please, PLEASE 3D scan and reproduce these.

These are the ultra rare mudflats (ridiculous I know..) that a lot of 1er's have been looking for since discontinuation.

There are a few sets out there that move between 1-series owners, but definitely not enough to meet the demand.

If you could share the 3D scans with the world and have cheap ones molded in China, that would better.

Please feel free to profit off the first set for us, but share those scans with the world!

Count me in for a set!

PopsnBurbles · 10-20-2020, 10:50 AM

No promises, but Ill look into 3d scanning these. However, the creation of moulds is expensive.

Yep, its $8-10k for an injection mold. Thats whats kept me back from reproducing the set I have.

dtla1 · 10-20-2020, 01:36 PM

Could DIY a cast, and try to do vacuum formed plastic on that.
If I had the space/tools, this would be fun side project, but I have neither.

maxcbrdriver · 10-20-2020, 03:25 PM

I still think just outsourcing to a firm that will scan/print is cheapest option. Moulds are just not cost effective at the volumes we're talking. One question that will have to be addressed is whether professional printing can offer a material with the right flexibility.

Unfortunately based on the costs to get any moldings was just out of my budget. At this point I greatly apologize to everyone that's taken the time to input their names but I will not be able to reproduce the mudflaps. As of now the mudflaps are sold, sorry I wish I could supply you all with a set but I only had one
