    HANSSHOW Trunk Liftgate v3 install

    How to remove small plastic lip on Model 3 rear diffuser?

    The primary purpose of a rear diffuser is to efficiently increase the downforce of a vehicle, which helps increase grip and reduce aerodynamic drag. It also provides a nice look on the vehicle. It’s why you see them on race cars, for this aerodynamic benefit.

    Best DIY Project?!

    I recently completed QL-38 hood pins install on my Model 3 Performance, since I didn’t want to go carbon fiber for the hood without them. Did not go the hood scoop route though.
