They said you could swap them left-to-right, but that doesn't change the pattern if you have to "spin" them around the trucks Z-axis. To flip the pattern, you have to flip them so the bottom becomes the top.

I'm not sure if there's a difference between the top and bottom of the plate. If there is a difference, they'll have to cut out 2 different designs or the pattern will always be swept in different directions on the left-and-right.
We will see what @EV Sportline says. I vaguely recall they are completely flippable/reversible so you can have the pattern go in any direction you so choose. The running boards themselves are not as there is a specific left and right board. .

Looking great!

Looking at this picture, the squares appear to not be a symmetric design (meaning left-to-right on the vehicle). Is the slot design symmetric? Because that may decide it for me if that's the case. I would be annoyed if the pattern swept forward on one side and backward on the other.

Or maybe I'm seeing something wrong something in the photo.
That is a good point, that picture is annoying me too now! ha ha. Re-do! Yes, they are flippable.

Ah, I remember seeing that now! Sorry for adding to the chaos. That's fantastic news!
Np. This thread is chaos-incarnate and I love it.

Propped up my truck in off road mode finally to look. Easier to see what needs to be removed.

Anxious me wants to know, if one breaks the underpanels (sounds like the clipped ones are most at risk), how much is a replacement panel? How easy to order a new one?

Also, what bolt pattern is that to remove the panels?

@Dark-Fx said he replaced all 6 for ~$680 so I would imagine ~$120 each.

A bit price?!This is maybe $3 worth of cheap plastic!

Expect some kind of market. I'd rather it be like $300 or less, but everything I've seen/heard is that parts are pricey for Rivian
