It was fine. He was nice and admitted fault.

My favorite body shop was not able to do the work so I took it to a local Tesla Certified location. I did NOT have to replace the hatch, they were able to straighten it. I also didn't have to replace the bumper. The heavy work was behind the bumper where a section of the body got bent badly...

IMO, I'd bring out your local garage door company. Install a nice new lower seal, and then just not close the garage door as far or with as much power. This allows the seal to just form around the wire.

I didn't know there was a new plan. I have to do some research. Especially if my commute goes up again. I use to have either free/reduced charging at work. Not sure I'll have that at my new job and I'll be charging at home a lot more. Hmmm....

What I've always liked about running Koni's with aftermarket springs is the valving is generally more in tune with a lower spring. Often times, running a lower spring with an OEM shock is not ideal, has the opportunity to harm the stock shock in a much quicker time frame. I'm very interested...

I think I'll need a new rear hatch, and full bumper. Not sure about anything underneath yet. I went to my preferred shop, and they've started putting an estimate together. Since they're not a certified tesla repair shop, they're not sure they can even get parts. I'll probably also take it to...

Dude wasn't paying attention, clipped my right rear. No injuries. I wonder how long parts are going to take to get. I hope not too long.

I dumped my 21's at 400 miles for a set of square 20's. Ride is better. Not sure if I picked up range. And I can rotate my tires! My roads are mostly decent here in nor-cal.

Interesting. I wonder how these springs compare to the Eibach...

I live a mile away if there's any info I could go collect for you. :)

Journey Coffee is right near by as is Round Table Pizza. You'll have to cross the street to get to Taco Bell. Great spot for westbound 80!

Brand new 250kw station JUST opened in Vacaville, right off westbound 80 on the west side of VV. Honestly not even 30 seconds off the freeway. Solid Coffee place, Jamaican restaurant, and donut place aside of it.

I run fronts only, and i feel it's saved the area in front of my rear wheels quite a bit. The car throws up a ton of crap. Also going through construction areas, there seems to always be dirt. Maybe they're not as needed in the non-rainy season, but I'll still run fronts year-round.

Davis is 250kw, and seems open. It's on the correct side of the freeway for you. Vacaville is only a 150 and is generally crowded.

Consider getting your alignment checked. Money well spent to keep your tires from wearing early.

For the time being I'm using Chemical Guys Jet Seal Matte. It will last a fair amount of time. Nothing like a ceramic. I'm not sure a ceramic coating is needed on top of a wrap, but that's another thread. :)

I have the Lectron. Very nice unit, very heavy, solid, tight connections. Good push buttons to lock both sides into the adapter. I have my wall charger set at 40A. I plugged in my friends Ioniq 5 and it just worked. No issues what so ever. (You just have to make sure your Wall Charger is...

GET AN ALIGNMENT!!!!!!!!!! There are a number of threads here saying that the Tesla alignment from the factory is hit and miss. I have 16k on my tires and they're perfect. A friend has 30k on a MYLR and his tires are in good shape. Lots of people with lots of miles on their tires.

Yep. A 2012 Audi TT-RS. :)

Are you saying that anything level 2 is too slow to even worry about?

Short of driving by it every day... there's a new SC going in close to my house. They're installed, just under covers still. Is there any way to get notification? I mean if you didn't see a new SC go in, and it was close to you how would you ever know? Sure, when the map says go there, but...

i try to charge as slowly as possible. As my commute is ~120 miles a day, When I charge at work, i'm 230/30. When I have to charge at home, I'll start it at night during off-peak hours, and set the amperage to finish approximately when I need to leave in the morning. Little more work? Sure...

I would rather enjoy being able to see my wall charger in the app. Not sure what benefit I would get out of it, but that doesn't keep me from wanting it! :D Honestly, I'd just check periodically that it had the latest firmware...

I'm commuting ~130 miles total a day. It generally takes 50-55% charge in total. I try to charge to 70% (while at work) so I can get back to work the next day and still be over 20% SOC. Depends on traffic/temperature/rain/etc. Now during the winter (mild winter in nor-cal), I'll trickle...

These wheels and tires are still for sale! :) Someone make me an offer I can't refuse! :)

2022.40.x.x

I retrofitted the cover into my Fremont car. While it's really nice when it's closed, loading stuff into the back is a PITA with it now. Same issues, it won't stay in the 'open' or folded position. I'm not a fan.

Add on to that those with tinted windows.... my windows already don't much like to go all the way up unless i'm sitting still...

Bump again, $2,100.

try reaching out to Griffin Motorwerk in Berkley.

I have a set in the bay area for sale as well. Pirellis, 408 miles, perfect, no tpms though.

I just installed my updated pieces this weekend. First one took me about 45 minutes, other side about 15 minutes. I opted to pull the bottom trim out as well, it just made it easier to get stuff to line up properly. Tools were a 3/8" Ratchet, 18" extension, a 15mm socket, and plastic trim...

Bump for $2,200! :)

If you're worried about holes / damage / wind resistance or whatever, get the front plate sticker! They're 85 bucks.

I got this one as well. Quite small, very nice. Perfect fit IMO!

Nice little tip. use some painters tape and tape off your pillars and edge of your hood. This will help keep potential splatters away. Allows you to get closer to the edge without worrying about your paint. The polish could take ceramic, or your wax off... Works great on headlights as well...

I just have the Tesla one. While I hope to never use the fix-a-flat stuff, having a small compressor will get you out of most jams. I like the elegance of the unit/bag combo. If you have a screw and a slow leak, just pumping the tire back up should get you the couple miles you need to go to...

2022 MYP. So I'm on 28.2 for a couple days. Now my autopilot is intermittent with cameras going on and off. I've tried a 2 button re-set and to re-calibrate the cameras. Sometimes works, other times nope. I'm not sure if it's a software thing, or maybe i actually have a camera that's...

The first time I lose to a Rivian R1T from a stop light is the second I'll need a performance boost!!!!!! Oh I'll be mad. :D

Yep. As I understand it, all the air that is recirculated in your car goes through the cabin air filter. fresh air will go through the HEPA filter.

My parts just got pushed back for like a 5th time. LOL.

I want a performance boost on the MYP. I'm going to be PISSED the first time I get gapped by a Rivan R1T... Also, with the software, you can hold some power back at launch to keep the axels and drivetrain intact, then ramp up the power after that.

I'm still waiting on my parts. the left side arrived, but not the right or the shelf. been pushed out till 8/25 to receive them. I ordered a couple weeks ago!

That looks amazing. So here's my question. I'd love to see a more inexpensive coil over option. The KW series, this Ohlins series... I realize they're amazing shocks with lots of adjustment, but I feel there's a solid market for a nicely tuned street only version. Something that doesn't have...

Bump this for $2,250.

Mine always seems to get stuck at 50%. Then it takes like 4-24 hours to finish the download.

I got a response from my local dealer. I ordered on 8/1 and picked an 8/6 appointment. They responded saying the parts wouldn't be in and re-scheduled my appointment to 8/11. My take here is that they're not going to cancel my order. I don't have an invoice yet, so we'll see.

Put in my order. It feels weird having to schedule an appointment for it. I wrote the part numbers I wanted and a note to say no labor needed I'll install the parts. We'll see how it goes.

I'd really like an in between option. I don't want to run lowering springs on stock shocks. I also don't need a 2 way adjustable KW MPP coilover at 3k. I feel there should be a good $1,500 coil over option that is optimized for the street and non adjustable shock...
