    Tint percentage

    I did 35% all around and 70% on the windshield. I wanted 20% but I commute when the sun isn’t up and I didn’t want a safety issue. 35% works well and looks pretty decent. 20% would work slightly better and look good. And the 70% on the windshield is a non issue.

    Vendor GiroDisc 370mm Rotors for GM Brembo 6-Pot Calipers

    Thought I’d add to the knowledge gained on this thread. Thanks to @jesse_le for the Spiegler brake line info. I went with his suggestions, (711 fitting to 029 and 711 to 039) except I decided to go with 610 mm length. Cost was $145.93 and it was to my door in 2 days. I also reused the stock hose...

    Vendor GiroDisc 370mm Rotors for GM Brembo 6-Pot Calipers

    @jesse_le , would you mind sharing the specs you ordered your brake lines to? The pic makes it look like you had the 90 degree banjo clocked, but I can’t tell. Also curious on the length you went with. Thanks!

    Please Help Me Decide - I’ve Narrowed it Down to Two Wheels

    The Martians are the better choice, however, I would only order from them if you don't care when your wheels show up. Seriously, it could take 6-9 months. To make matters worse, they will give you misleading and false updates when you do manage to get a ahold of someone. Check out the thread in...

    FS: 20” Uberturbine wheels, Los Angeles

    Edit. I just noticed a bubble in one of the tires (it can been on the lower right tire). Obviously, I was unaware and didn’t notice it until I was putting the wheels away after posting the ad. I’ll drop the asking price to $2,000 as this is a safety issue that will have to be rectified. I...

    Martian Wheels order delay for 2 months?

    They don’t have the wheels and they have been lying. I was order #2408. Drew gave me the same email updates that everyone else got in March/April. I actually got him on the phone on 5/10 and he said, “yes, we are working through the orders and at the rate we are processing, yours will go out on...

    Martian wheels?

    I advise everyone to heed the warnings and stay clear of this company. Today I finally tapped out and canceled my order. They are lying to people. - Ordered 2/12. Stated delivery window late March/April. Okay, NBD. - 3/14 get email saying they expect wheels to ship week of April 18 and do I...

    Mud Flaps Recomendation

    ^Jeremy3292 is correct. The “retaining clips“ don’t fit and nothing goes together like the YouTube video. And the $100+ price is joke. However, having tried other mud flaps I’d still recommend them them as they are the least invasive (touch the paint/body the least) and are less porous than the...

    Mud Flaps Recomendation

    Bottom line up front: go with the Rokblokz splash guards. Had the Basenor and just switched to the Rokblokz splash guards. The Basenor versions will damage your paint if you don’t use PPF and they trapped a lot of debris behind them. I was quite surprised at how much debris got between the flap...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I agree with those that think the wheel gap is too much. Certain angles seem to exacerbate or minimize this appearance. KetlekNW pics appear to be from a lower angle than mine and I’d say his (or hers) capture the “feel” of the gap better. As a life long German car owner, this wheel gap feels...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Good question. I did the measurements both in the garage and on the driveway. I was a little surprised when I got the same results for both locations and for front and back as my driveway has a pretty decent slope.

    West Coast Deliveries

    Just picked her up today at Burbank. They had a few other 2021 M3s - only MSM and white exterior, black interiors. It was the same story for the Model Ys. Gave appearance that the “basic builds” were allocated first.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Just picked her up and took some quick pics and measurements. Measures 15.5” front and back from the center of the hub to fender. And about 1.5” from top of tire to fender.

    Ordered 9/8, M3P, white exterior, black interior, no FSD. Deferred to get a 2021. Got the VIN Sunday 11/29 and picking up Wednesday 12/2 at Burbank. From reading the performance waiting room thread, it looks like the white ones might be first up in the queue. My order status went from no...
