    Model 3 Performance Changed 20" OEM Wheels to 19" OEM Wheels - The Economics and the Pros & Cons

    Plaid Crash

    Custom....it's all "plastic".....relatively inexpensive (read.. cheap Chinese stuff), Sides are matte black and center is matte "hydro-dipped" carbon fibre pattern. I wanted something understated that wouldn't compromise front clearance and would also complement an upcoming very modest rear...
