This is crazy!!! According to the seller on Amazon, they will not fit my 24 Macan..... The blue Macan above has a different style of mud guards than the ones on Amazon. Still trying to get a link to those on the blue Macan.
Which I presume means they won’t fit my 2023 GTS. Anyone have a link for ones that will?
I have found a seller on AliExpress that claims they will fit 23 Macan (same as 24 I hope). They look like the ones on the blue Macan above.
The link is in the title.
Any thoughts?

The two full time SAs at my dealership both have 23 GTSs. They corroborate what I seem to have found which is there aren't any available for this variant as the contours are different than for other Macan models. So I'm going to add a 10mil layer on what was already put down which according to them prevents damage except to the PPF although they may warrant replacement at some point depending upon what's encountered.
Received and installed the mud flaps.
Front: Perfect fit used 2 existing screws and double faced tape.
Rears: 95% fit but 100% usable; used 2 existing screws no tape.
Definitely recommend.
I just picked up a NTM '17 GTS but am not a fan of the look of the flaps... is there a reason to use the flaps rather than putting 3M clear bra on those affected areas?

The flaps work. The 3M stuff will scar out. It will look like sand paper down the road.
Makes sense, but isn't it possible to remove the roughed clear bra (heatgun, patience) and then reapply every couple of years? Genuinely curious.
Of course you can. Easiest if you catch it before the rock chips have eaten through the clearmask into the underlying paint. Also worth noting you can get thicker clearmask for these areas.
I am a mudflap fan personally on SUVs and trucks, but recommend you clearmask under the mudflap before installing as the flap will rub on the paint and if ever removed it will require paint repair.

I like the look of the flaps. Bought them on Ali Express - easy install. They are 95% perfect shape for my 24 Macan. Very happy.

The decision was made for me as there weren't mudflaps for a '23 GTS as of this past fall. So I went with two layers of thick PPF. Thus far into this winter I have minor barely noticeable pits in the PPF. I figure I'll get at least two seasons before wanting to change out the PPF. It wasn't expensive to do just the exposed panels although I'm a frequent customer of my PPF guy.
