The first year of the RS I saw several posts about this front fender extender rubbing but later years I read where people have tried it without any problems.
Puig is the only fender extender I like the looks of.
We had front fender extenders that looked like the Puig on our K1300Ss and they looked like a stock item to me.
When we bought our R1200RSs I did not get front fender extenders. The front of the engine will get dirty but the black finish is very durable and the surface still looked new when we traded the bikes 6 years latter. The front engine case finish is smooth and very easy to wipe or clean off. If you're worried about the finish of engine case you don't need a extender. If you want to avoid dirt on the front engine case after riding through a puddle a extender will help.
On both or 2016 and 2022 RSs we used the MachineArt Moto Mudsling and at the back used a filler piece that used to be available from BMW dealers in the UK and Australia.
