My car after a good detail and ceramic coating after 18 months of ownership. I did a full decon, paint touch up, 3 stage compound and polish then a coat of carpro cquartz uk followed by cquartz sic. Carpro Dlux and sic on the wheels and calipers. I added the carbon fibre centre caps to the...

I had some minor fine scratches on my black trim around the windows and a black sharpie just kept being removed during a wash. I tried a little black paint but that too wouldn’t stay put. I then did some research and found a product called aluminium black from a company called birchwood casey...

Hi, I did exactly this to my 2021 M3LR with acceleration boost and now run both setups. 20inch performance wheels with PS4S from April through October and the standard 18s with no aero covers and PS4 during the colder months. From the data I have so far you’re looking at a range hit of 10-15%...

I did them myself to make them a bit different

Hey, Yes, they repaired both sides of the car as it had began to happen on both sides. Few months on and no issues with the new paint. Cheers

Hey, sorry I took so long to reply. Tesla fixed it with no issues under warranty. The repair was high quality and is not noticeable. The paint used feels different to what was there originally.

The car has been with Tesla for a week now and has just returned from their bodyshop back to the service centre. No arguments and was given a model s 90d for the week as a loaner. I'll post what they did and how the job turned out once I collect the car.

I have an appointment booked for the 25th of February. I am going to continue to wash the car at the weekend as normal and keep an eye on it for further peeling. Thank you for your replies. Contourrob, I am glad your car is sorted now.

No nothing above the line either. Yours looks very similar albeit a different primer colour. How are you getting on with getting it repaired?

I really hope so. I will update when I get their feedback.

I took delivery of a pearl white 2021 Long Range Model 3 on 16th December 2020 and it's not even done 600 miles since. Washing it today, to my dismay, the paint has started to peel/flake on the rocker panels on both sides. It is worse on the passenger side and looks to me like it is separating...

They are 8.5J all round and 35mm offset. N0 just means they are fully approved for Porsche vehicles, just like T0 is for Tesla. Does the rim protection look more pronounced than what you have just now?

Not sure exactly but between 70 and 90%.

This was the pic on the tesla website that made me decide on the N0 versions.

Hey, I put the N0 porsche version of the 235s on my 20 inch sport wheels as the rim protection looked a little more pronounced when compared to my aero wheels. A little noisier than the aeros but nothing too significant.

To me it feels faster across the board within the speed limit here in the UK, more than I was expecting to be honest. Quarter mile times I have seen posted in this thread would suggest that the half second gained before 60 is not stretched out more above 60, 12.3s to 11.8s seems to be the...

Before and after boost 0-60 runs below. Not great conditions, 3DegC and damp road, but pretty much claimed figures considering.

I see what you mean about the size difference. I looked for a while and couldn't see anything that was the same dimensions as the dual motor lettering.

Agreed, or just leave it as is

I take it that AWD+ is the recognised version with the boost applied? I'll see if I can find something.

OMFG the boost is awesome don't think I'll be asking for a refund. It feels like the reigns have been unleashed below 60mph. Especially 0 to 30 feels significantly quicker than unboosted, very impressed.

Yes, gloss black.

Not sure why it repeated the images

Thanks for your thoughts, I think I've decided to go for it too on my 2021 awd. I don't think the car needs to be faster but I don't like it that my car is not at it's full potential (as it stands today) and that software is holding it back. I have been swithering for a few days now so I am...

Ignore the acceleration boost question, just saw the massive master thread :rolleyes:

Hello Everyone, I picked up my 2021 model 3 long range just before Christmas. Since then I have ceramic coated the car, tidied up the number plate mounting, added a lip spoiler, painted the calipers and changed to the 20 inch sport wheels. I thought I would post a few pics of the 20 inch sport...
