Ive got two Teslas in the garage. Both stay plugged in overnight for a few reasons: They charge at $0.09 KwH overnight I believe that there is some inherent value to having a "full tank" every day. Mostly because I hated having to "stop for gas" in my old car. In the event of an emergency or...

Just an update, my rear mud guards have been sold and are no longer available. ;)

Yep. I am aware. And no, I don't have any affiliation with that company. :cool:

Posted a few times, but here is the link again. o_O

The Model Y ones are out of stock, but will be back in stock soon. They only come in a set of 4. They arrived to me in California less than two weeks after ordering. They were shipped from China. I am happy with the purchase. These were the first production ones they made for the Y and they were...

No, the Model Y ones are temporarily out of stock, but those were the ones I got. No drilling required. I needed a flathead screwdriver to pop the old pins out and the new ones fit perfectly in there. I bought my Model 3 mud guards from Amazon as well, but different brand, it was Motrobe. That...

I am a fan of the ones I got on Amazon so far, and they look much sportier than any of the other "flat" ones out there in my opinion. That being said, I havent planned on installing the rears, so if anyone is looking to buy the rear ones from me, I am happy to sell them to ya. Just DM me with...

Its certainly a mathematical formula based on distance from the tire, how close to the ground they need to be, etc. I attached some math formulas for any math nerds amongst us that want to find the optimal size for maximum protection. It came from the Pennsylvania DOT and looks quite old, but...

These arrived today, and I will install them later this week. Just placing them up against the vehicle, I can tell they are going to ne a really good fit. They have the same style as the ones I placed on my Model 3 last year. I unfortunately won't be able to share how well these do in the snow...

These are available on Amazon now. They are coming from Hong Kong, so they will take some time to arrive, but the company has fitted them to a Model Y they used as a model, from what I understand. As of right now, they are the only ones on Amazon with these so they will sell out I am sure. I'll...

I got my Model 3 stickers last year about 3 weeks after taking delivery on Dec 24th (yep, I used my paper plate #). I mailed them on the 26th and got the 2020 (orange), not 2019 version, so I think you are safe. But if you want to feel better and mail them out later for pick up on the 2nd, thats...

Its a paint, and I had it done at the same place DennyL, the OP, had it done. Auto Armour here in San Diego. They have someone who specializes in caliper paint and he also did the Tesla branding on them. Its not cheap, I found prices in the $800-1300 range, and this was on the higher side of it...

I got a 3M Vinyl wrap over my MSM, along with a ceramic coat after that. Looking forward to seeing how it holds up. I hand wash only, but the washing process and pressure on any edges is important to take care with.

I cancelled my RPM Tesla order. I ordered two months ago and nothing. The refund came within an hour.

Thanks again for the insights DennyL! I just got my ride back from Auto Armour, and they did an amazing job. Its a 3M Satin Dark Grey wrap with ceramic coating, a tint on the front two windows, painted calipers, smoked headlights, matte black wrapped badges, and a wrapped console.
