Default 3IS Carbon Guards

Good morning - We finished up a carbon fiber mud guards prototype for the 3IS yesterday. They are now available on our website.

Customer wanted to install the rear set himself so pictures of the rear set are off the ISF but they look exactly the same.

Version 1 includes a minimalist rear set.
Version 2 includes a wider / longer rear set. Front set is the same for both versions.

I believe this a great idea but way too expensive IMO. Do you guys have plans to manufacture regular plastic for less?

Yes, currently being worked on for all models that we have on the site. I’ll post an update once we have them in stock.

I’ll update this thread as soon as they are ready. We’ve had shipping delays from our vendors for the new material samples and we don’t want to rush to release anything without ample testing.

We’re working on a more streamline process for these as well as getting better pricing to bring our material cost down. Pricing will be updated by the end of the month for all models and will hopefully have a non carbon (cheaper) version available around the same time.

I’ve had customers go through them with no issues. The guards are not brittle - they are thin enough to conform to the wheel well but they are super strong. I haven’t heard of a single instance of anyone damaging them.

I am hoping to have them ready around Feb 27 but it could take till mid March with the shipping delays we’ve had from our vendor. I will post an update the moment they are ready - these are high on the priority list.

After a lot of thought, pricing structure will remain unchanged for now - still working on the non carbon guards. I’ve seen lots of material samples but haven’t settled on the exact material specs yet.

In the meantime, one time 10% off code specifically for the 3IS carbon guards (both variants) is CL10. This expires 3/12 at 11:59 PM.
