    I’m getting one of my stock 19” sport wheels repaired, and I’m trying to find a powder coat color as close as possible to the stock color. Does anyone know what powder coat color would be a close match?

    Defects in tint on Model 3 rear glass, anyone see this issue before?

    I recently had my Model 3 rear glass replaced, and my tint shop has tried tinting that glass 10 times, and each time, defects are showing in the tint in the same locations. Tesla is saying there’s nothing wrong with the glass, and that they can’t cover defects in the tint, even though the tint...

    Cracked rear glass, service center won’t cover under warranty:m. Options?

    The rear glass on my Model 3 recently started to crack, and there’s no impact crater/marks on the outside of the glass. The Service Center is saying it looks like glass is cracking in the shape of an impact mark, and that they won’t cover it under warranty. What are my options at this point?

    No joke, I refreshed my order page about 30 times today, and after reading today's replies about no traction for CA buyers, I thought I wouldn't get a VIN any time soon. I was wrong! Was just assigned a VIN in source: Ordered 10/21, Los Angeles, CA, SR+, MSM/Black, 19" wheels, lease.

    Model S/X Owners Have Priority Model 3 Orders Over Non-Owners

    Not saints, but definitely people that went out on a limb and "threw" their money at an unproven platform that had tons of kinks to work out, deal with a company going through growing pains, and also deal with sporadic refueling options. It's definitely a nice way of saying thank you for being...

    Model S/X Owners Have Priority Model 3 Orders Over Non-Owners

    Agreed. Without Model S/X owners, there would be no Model 3. Plain and simple, plus Tesla doesn't owe anyone a tax discount. That's on the federal government.

    Blacking out the chrome trim: A trial of various options

    Before we put the deposit down for our Model S, we knew from the very beginning that our eventual build would have a stealth theme: blacks, grays, and matte tones. The final config joined Steel Gray with the black turbine wheels, which made for a very sleek, masculine look. The only problem we...

    Will there be a Model X launch event in Hawthorne, and if so, how can I get in?

    Usually when Musk and co. make a big announcement it's done at their Hawthorne facilities, so I was wondering if there were any murmurs of such an event happening for the X. I live in Hawthorne, which is slightly convenient. And if there is a launch event there, how could I get in?

    Guide to Blacking Out Tesla Emblems

    A chrome surface (or any finished surface for that matter) isn't ideal for the primer to stick to. Bare plastic that's scuffed up allows better adhesion of the primer. I won't have installed pics for a while, my car gets here in late October. The badges I worked on came from eBay (long...

    Guide to Blacking Out Tesla Emblems

    One of the first things I wanted to do on our new MS is to black out as much chrome as possible. I was disappointed to find that there were no aftermarket matte black badges for the Model S, so I decided to make my own. Here's how I did it: Step 1: Remove the badges. Here's a guide on how to do...

    Minor bumper scratch and...

    Are the tabs/screws behind the bumper that connect it to the fender snapped? If they are snapped then the entire bumper would need to be replaced, but if the bumper can be reconnected, then you can get away with spot painting that area.

    Minor scratch from keying - how to best repair it?

    While you're 100% right about the process, I wouldn't recommend a novice to wet sand their car. It is incredibly easy for someone new to wet sanding to sand too much and go right through the clear to the color coat. If you're really intent on doing this, I'd practice on a junker so you don't...

    New Grey for Model S

    These two shots are just gorgeous and really show off the color well. We just placed our order the day after Dolphin Grey was discontinued, so I'm glad the color looks so good in the real world. - - - Updated - - - This new color also reminds me of the Steel Grey BMW produced on the E46 M3:
