    Available Unplugged Performance Superlight Carbon Ceramic Front Big Brake Kit

    Hello Up for sale is a brand-new Unplugged Performance “The BFB Kit” this is the complete Unplugged Performance Superlight Carbon Ceramic Front Big Brake Kit. I purchased this a while back for MSRP but I don’t think I am going to do an extensive build on my Model 3 anymore. I recently sold a...

    How do I remove seat bottom trim to replace the seat control switch?

    Move the seat forward, you will have access to that Torx bolt.

    Scratch on Model 3 - Can I fix it myself?

    This looks like the perfect candidate for Dr. Color Chip, which you can find here: https://drcolorchip.com/ I don't advise sanding with touch up if you don't know what you're doing. The last thing you want is to burn through the paint in the surrounding area. Dr. Color Chip is easy to use for...

    Rear ended M3 [is this totaled?]

    I would say it’s likely 100% total. Damaged quarter, pillar is damaged, front suspension likely sustained damage, rear tub, etc. Highly unlikely this thing will not be anything but a total loss. On the plus side, held up well with what hit it!

    2019 Long range or new 2023 standard range?

    With the 2023 you’ll see nice changes such as Ryzen chip, the processing is noticeably faster, refreshed interior, and blacked out exterior accents. The latter such as the refresh interior and exterior blackout can be fitted on the used 2019. I personally would lean towards the used 2019 given...

    Used 2017 model 3 need help

    All 2017 Model 3 came one way, Long Range RWD, and IIRC the only options were exterior exterior color and AP options. Alcantara headliner was standard on 2017 cars and very few early 2018 cars before it was discontinued. I personally would appreciate the refresh center console as it’s not a...

    3 standard or performance

    Best answer for you is drive both back to back and that will give you a clear answer on if the premium is worth it.

    Drag Racing with Model 3 Performance - switch to 18 inches wheels?

    If you size the 18" correctly, your rolling diameter should be the same or close to the same as the factory 20" setup.

    Door Ding

    Look for a reputable PDR service, and touch it up and call it a day. Not worth the risk of repainting and blending adjacent panels and potentially not matching for whatever reason. I rather have factory paint than a repainted panel over that once the dent is taken out.

    Drag Racing with Model 3 Performance - switch to 18 inches wheels?

    In theory, if you go with anything lighter than the factory 20” you will be reducing unsprung weight, therefore reducing 0-60.

    Used 2018 Model 3 - MCU powering off several times consistently

    Check the condition of the small 12V battery.
  21. Alpha Motoring

    Brand new (5 days) model 3 has odd looking white liquid all over front left rim.

    Wash your car and see if it returns. Looks like it’s some type of residue from perhaps detailing pre delivery.

    Can HW4 be retrofitted to 2018 Tesla 3 [no]

    No, very unlikely and nearly impossible to retrofit onto HW3 cars, too many components that are different and won't be cost effective.

    PPF/ceramic/both, now vs later?

    Hi Travis, I have my preferred PPF shop already, thank you though!

    PPF/ceramic/both, now vs later?

    I might be in the camp of leaving PPF up to a professional. Most if not all the DIY kits do not fully wrap around edges and tuck into any seams. This is mainly due to the fact that you’d need to cut the film on the surface. For a non seasoned professional this likely means cutting into the...

    PPF/ceramic/both, now vs later?

    Don’t let things like bird droppings or really any dirt or contaminants sit on PPF too long. The less it’s in the sun the better. Ceramic coating contrary to a lot of “lifetime” coatings, it really only last a few years at max.

    PPF/ceramic/both, now vs later?

    Really depends on the color of your car, how you take care of it, etc. On a white car it will be somewhat noticeable as time goes on, but with many of the newer films made by XPEL, Stek, Suntek, etc...the yellowing is not that big of a concern as it used to be. I would focus heavily on doing...

    Yikes my wife spilled nail polish then used a permanent marker to cover it up.......

    You’ll be pretty shocked but something like Axe body spray will remove permanent marker and it’s less damaging than using something like Acetone on the vinyl.

    Rear Window Tint

    Do the whole thing. Be expected to pay a little more as it’s a special 60” wide roll of tint if you don’t want any seams. I did mine with XPEL Prime XR Plus along with all the other glass, night and day difference.

    AMD Ryzen UPDATE MODEL 3/Y? [retrofit speculation thread]

    I have to agree with a lot of posts on here. I don’t see it being cost effective for a Ryzen upgrade to happen. It also seems like the general population of owners don’t even know the difference between an Intel based car vs. an AMD/Ryzen based car. Only seems to be a topic amongst enthusiast...

    YouTube, Disney, Prime working while in motion!

    Why don’t you get YouTube Premium and stream it via BT? With Premium you can have your phone locked while the video/audio still plays.

    Is it ok to supercharge more than one time in a day?

    Absolutely fine to do so. I personally prefer to charge at home whenever possible, but SC are built for road trips. Your advisor was misinformed, or maybe meant try not to SC daily.

    2023 LFP M3 RWD Boost?

    So no live interior view on 2018 Model 3?

    Like most others have mentioned, you won’t get interior view with HW2.5 but with HW3.0 aka FSD computer and the updated software you will have this function.

    Will 19inch model S wheels fit a model 3

    Different bolt pattern, technically as someone said above you in theory can fill and redrill, safe and cost effective? That’s up to you. I wouldn’t.

    Easy fix? [to this damaged car at auction]

    I suspect there is more underbody damage than anything else, and that is substantially more costly than panels you can physically see.

    Lowering Springs: TSportline vs Unplugged vs Eibach

    It seems the consensus is that the UP spring rides the best vs the other options on the market, but it does make me hesitant due to the amount of issues people have been having with them.

    What am I seeing in this PPF job I got?

    The dirt happened because the film lifted, and dirt got in it. It is normal to have some edge lift that will be trimmed off a week after installation, but overall it looks like a lot of edges could've been tucked tighter, or they should've extended the edges before they cut the material out.
  38. Alpha Motoring

    What am I seeing in this PPF job I got?

    Dirt, edges not tucked down/trimmed properly. Some of the bubbles will go away after a few days. Overall looks like a poor install.

    Lowering Springs: TSportline vs Unplugged vs Eibach

    Anyone have any experience with the newer UP springs if it still makes binding noises? Considering those or will be going coils.
