    A cautionary autopilot video

    That's not be point. Maybe I should have clarified by saying a "Tesla on Autopilot", but I digress.

    A cautionary autopilot video

    I am alarmed that 66% of poll takers are saying that they use autopilot under a condition the manual says it should not be used. When will I see a cautionary tale about a Tesla used on secondary roads failing to recognize a light has turned red?

    Has Any P3D+ Owners Gotten Carbon Fiber Spoiler?

    No ceramic in that area for me. The problem isn't the adhesive lifting from the car. It's more of the spoiler pulling apart the double sided tape due to the spoiler's shape not being totally in line w the trunk.

    Has Any P3D+ Owners Gotten Carbon Fiber Spoiler?

    Do you mind taking some pix once it's all done? I'll consider doing the same depending on the results

    Has Any P3D+ Owners Gotten Carbon Fiber Spoiler?

    CF spoiler and badge installed today. It went pretty quickly and didn't take much time out of my day. Observation: The spoiler I got looks like it's lifting at the edges. At least there's a gap between what's presumably some 3M tape at the spoiler that's visible on either end. It was like...

    Model 3 Software Update 46.2

    My dashcam is working again. I've kept my usb stick plugged in despite it being unable to record anything after maybe a day or so of working. With the lastest update, I can confirm that it's now back to recording. Let's see how long this lasts.

    PPF and Adhesive Style Front License Plate Holder

    Stick it on the wrap. Just don't put ceramic between the two.

    PPF for door handle, rocker panel, and bottom of rear bumper?

    I wouldn't do the rocker panel. The car already comes stock with PPF in that area.

    Nice tint job! Do you think you can show me a picture of how your back window looks like from the driver's perspective? I was thinking of possibly going that dark, but worried about reflection.
  16. Vegan Pleather

    Looking for tint advice

    Totally reasonable. Full front PPF is the most bang for your buck installation. Tint job sounds fine, because I guess you like that VLT. If I were you, and being in Fresno with your summers, I'd make sure to also tint the windshield. Use something with a high TSER

    3M = good durability. high orange peel. More difficult to work with from installer point of view. May effect quality of install. Probably effects how well its wrapped in areas and frequency of finding chicken skin. Xpel has less orange peel. Durability is good. Suntek has low orange peel...

    3M Crystalline vs PINNACLE vs Suntek CIR vs LLumar CTX vs Wincos Tint

    The darker you go, the browner 3M crystalline is when seen from the inside.

    Now that there is someone else doing the chrome delete, are they now also blacking out the badges, or is that still not done

    Model 3 Air Conditioning Not responding

    Yes, I had something similar happen to me. Less than 48h of ownership in and with temps in the high 90s, the AC wouldn't turn on, although the car "thought" it was on. The problem lasted a few hours and then resolved, never to recur again. I didn't take it into the shop.

    Been Driving My 3 for a few days. A few questions

    3. It depends on how fast you're going. Look at your display. The cartoon of the model 3 has its brake lights turn off/on correspondingly with your car.

    Owning Model 3 with 2 kids?

    I have experiences (albeit limited), with both. I had a Fllo first, then exchanged it out for the Foonf. The pictures attached to this post are of the Fllo. With the angle of incline of the rear seats, it was a little difficult to get the car seat at the correct angle, despite the use of...

    Yes, I plan on tracking. I plan on lowering the car slightly. Will consider Mountain Pass coilovers. May change to staggered setup. I have no clue as to how the charging is gonna go. One of the recent reviews of tracking the Model 3 Performance said the car was able to keep going for a...

    Are they cutting around the emlems when applying PPF, placing PPF over emblems, or debadging, followed rebadging after PPF installation? Forgive my ignorance but I'm not sure how he does it. I'm trying to time my emblem chrome delete, PPF, and ceramic.

    Did anybody I am, after reading everything above. I'm glad the PPF person has had years of experience, but at the same time, it doesn't sound like the work done is as flawless as I'd like. I'm concerned at how visible the PPF seams are going to end up being after waxing, for one. Does...

    Question for owners: is white interior too bright (model 3/S/X)?

    It has not been a problem for me at all. If being too bright is a problem, I'd imagine it being with the white dash over anything else, but even that hasn't been an issue and it could always be wrapped in that case.

    Tinting Rear Window on Model 3

    Per the folks at OC Detailing, tinting the back too dark may result in too much reflection coming from the inside cabin, making it difficult to see out from the inside.

    Southern California (Orange County) Tesla Model 3 Tint/PPF Group Buy

    Any reason why the shop recommends 40 on the sides/rear window? Im scheduled to go for tint in September, but I was thinking of getting 20 as 40 is too light for me.

    I think satin black would look better. My MSM is getting delivered soon and I plan to go that route. I used to be in the matching paint boat, at least for the door handles, but that fell out of favor the more examples I saw.

    Walk-in customers, but booked until September? any issues with artifacts showing up when wearing polarized sunglasses? I may end up getting the same tint job you got.
