    POLL: Model 3 License Plate Ideas

    Exactly my plate. I laugh every time I see it. I do know however that most have no idea what it is.

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    Welp, thought I was in the clear but after having taken delivery of my car in June, having a full PPF wrap done and only having drove 2700km I noticed today at the car wash that the rear passenger bumper seam has paint that is flaking away in the gap. The PPF seems to be holding the rest of it...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    I've got the rattle in the passenger side as well. I thought it was B-pillar related and the Tesla service guys even thought so as well. But it turns out it its actually the seat so they ordered replacement parts. So I would advise just to take it in and have them fix it. Might be a new issue...

    Model Y Gemini Wheels on Model 3 Performance/Can it be done?

    So is there a new/different set of Gemini wheels now that don't require a spacer? Tesla lists this: Model 3 19”? Gemini Wheel and Winter Tire Package which is only for the Model 3 Performance as a 19" x 8.5 wheel. Anyone have any information on this or photos of what it looks like without the cover?

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    Took delivery last Friday and notice the following issues: 1. Paint issues on both rear low rocker panel just ahead of the rear wheels. One side had a good paint chip from what looked like paint drips/dips. 2. Rear door handle on drivers side is recessed by about 5mm more than any others so...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    It's on the front part so no mudflap would cover this unfortunately

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    Yeah ok I'll definitely let them know. It's possible I didn't hold it down long enough but strange non the less

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    So I just picked up my M3P today and to start it off there was some paint defects on the rear rocker panels that I noticed that Tesla now needs to repaint so I will be brining it in on Monday... But more worrying later after driving it home and fooling around with the car the screen suddenly...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I was thinking about that but I went and ahead and used my nail and it basically broke off and is now showing white down what should be paint so it needs to be redone unfortunately.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Well guys I picked up my new model 3 today! Unfortunately it has 2 paint defects that need to be fixed on the rear rocker panels. The one on the passengers side is quite noticeable. Looks like a drip of paint and sticks out a good chunk. Tesla gave me the option to leave it or have them repaint...

    New M3P. I think I must have just gotten in the production que or re-allocated a spot because I feel for all you out there waiting so long.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Ordered 5/27, VIN assigned 5/30, Service advisor called today 6/08 to say the car arrived and inspection looked good and scheduled pickup for Thursday! That was absurdly quick. Now I can only hope that the car is actually in excellent shape but not much I can do about that right now. Lets see...
