    Factory Tour at Fremont Model 3 pickup?

    I can concur that they don't offer the factory tours as part of the pickup of your Model 3. I pick my Model 3 up tomorrow and asked that question yesterday that if I want the factory tour, I would need to schedule it 3 to 4 weeks in advance. This was not the case when I picked up my Model S.

    Opti Coat on top of Paint Protective Film?

    GasDoc, I had this done with Joe. Opti-Coat on paint, then Xpel ultimate then Opti-Coat on top of that. The Opti-Coat on top of the film is to make it easier for washing, etc. I hand wash my car every couple of weeks and the water slips right off.... Lance

    Need recommendation for an XPEL installer in the SF Bay Area

    I've used Greg with Premier for my Photosync tint and used Joe at Orinda Auto Detail for the Opti-Coat and Xpel. Both did a great job. Each has it strengths. Premier with the Photosync is top notch and will use them for the Escort install once the Tesla Center Console comes in. Joe at...

    Wheel Alignment Check in the Bay Area

    I'm just hitting 2500 miles with my P85+ which I picked up on 12/9. I am concerned about the excessive tire wear caused by alignment issues. Can someone recommend where I should take it for this service in the Bay Area and approximately how much does it cost? Also, since its being checked...

    Fremont, CA: Anyone have an Opti-coat recommendation near factory?

    Rownolds, I did exactly the same thing that you did. I picked up my black P85+ on 12/9 from the factory and drove it straight to Joe at Orinda Auto Detail. I had the Opti-Coat, Xpel, Alloy Gator Install and the Opti-Coat interior done. I don't regret it as the car looks great. Joe...

    Red Brake Calipers

    Today, I picked up from the Fremont Factory, my P85+ with the Red Caliper option added last month....IMO, they look great and I would do it again in a heartbeat. The contrast between the Black body, the 21" Grey Turbines and the Red Calipers is striking. My wife drove the car back from the...
