Default Anyone has aftermarket mud splash guards installed?

I spent a week in ski resort then hit the road for a 750 km back home trip. With a rainy weather and mud all around the car got extremelly dirty around the wheels. Even two touchless washes did not make a huge difference in cleaning the sticky mud. Did anyone installed any mud flaps and has the model he purchased? Pictures will help. Thanks in advance!

I would love to find some suitable for The S line or S8 sills (see thread below)

...just search down the list of recent threads - I asked the same question.

Anyway, in answer to this poster, you can get Audi splashguards for the standard A8, but not the S8 or the styling packages that use the same sills as the S8, because they won't fit at the bottom of the wheelatches.

Suggestions on a postcard please ?

I'm still looking - can't believe that someone in China hasn't made any.

Development doesn't make sense, there are too few cars to recover costs

I get that about volumes, but that's where aftermarket sellers normally step in.

I'm actually going to try some lower front wheel arch lips to see if that deflects the mud - nothing permanent , and cheap. We'll see..!

You might want to give WeatherTech a phone call. Their website says that their mudflaps fit for a 2020 A8 is not confirmed.
