Got my 3 back from the service center. They replaced the battery and the car is up and running again but the rear speakers still aren’t working. Actually it’s the rear speakers, subwoofer, door woofers, and Bluetooth microphone. The speakers at the top of the doors and the speakers at the top of...

Well, Ghost is on the way to the service center.

RSA here. Used a battery booster to get some power but nothing working really. Windows, doors, etc. all inop. Car won’t even go into tow mode. He’s getting it on the flatbed now. Ugh.

Update: I was going to go pull apart the rear of the car to see if there was a wire disconnected. Went into the garage and the car is kinda bricked for now. It was pretty in responsive. I was able to open the door and disconnect the charging cable. Windows didn’t work properly, screen was dead...

I recently had a bit of bodywork done to fix a dent on the rear right quarter panel. I picked the car up late on Friday. The rear speakers and sub aren’t working now; the drone speakers are working. The audio system balance is in the middle. If I set it all the way back, there’s no sound. Audio...

I have the kit sitting in my house. It arrived the day before I left for a 2-week business trip to San Diego. Now I'm back in Phoenix, but am hesitant to install it in 110+ degree weather.

Looks good. I was thinking about doing black for most of it but white door handles. What exact vinyl/color did they use? Matches very well?

Isn’t that in the chrome delete kit already? Edit: Yup: “Completely Covers the Chrome on the Side Mirrors, Door Trim, Handles and Side Camera Housing.”

Orders start shipping Monday?

Quick measurement with metal tape measure (meaning I didn’t touch the car lol): 7 feet.

Yeah the car looks great but like you mentioned, I’d need an (in person or video) closeup. @Kenriko did you say there would be an install video?

I ordered satin. Not sure I’d like the Matrix on the exterior. Especially with other stuff like the b-pillar glass being non-textured. But that’s just me.

One of each. Duh. :D

Your watch is fast, @Kenriko!! Ordered! #1025

Central. 10 minutes to go.

I’m set!

Didn’t even say “get set!”

What a tease @Kenriko!

I took the shade off. Really doesn’t help all that much. Maybe a little, but not enough to outweigh the coolness of the glass roof. And the rear shade did make it tough to see out the back window.

Another benefit of the pearl white—it hides door dings. Luckily none on this car yet, but my previous car was a pearl white Ford Edge Sport. It got a few dings but they were very hard to see. I only found them when I was hand washing the car and felt them when drying. I usually just ran it...

Living in Arizona, I get tons of dust but very little rain. And when it does rain it pulls the dust out of the air and dumps it on the car. Here, I will likely never go with a color other than white because it doesn’t show the normal dust at all as long as it doesn’t rain. I was discussing this...

I got one of the roof sun shades off amazon. Just installed it. It’s night now so I can’t tell how much of a difference it’ll make here in the hot Arizona sun, but it fits quite well. I used the clips but I’m not sure I had to. The laws are different everywhere, but I believe for tint it has...

20 is fine. I’ll try to do that. I actually have used Plastidip before and you’re right it’s pretty simple.

I was kinda considering stealth white but it only makes sense to me as a full wrap...and if it’s gonna cost $6500+ that’s heading towards what a full paint job might cost (possibly more than a good quality front end paint job/repair).

Maybe not a bad solution. Same with having a shop paint them, or actually painting vs Plastidip. Any idea how much those badges typically run from Tesla?

Ah, gotcha.

I think all I’ll need is the mirror parts.

I’m confused. My 3 (performance) came with a pretty dark tint on the roof glass. Do they all not come like that? Or are you wanting it a little darker even?

$80 each seems a bit steep. I really like them though.

Not sure how I got that out of your post? “3. Trim that people are "Chrome Deleting"” And In other words, there isn't ANY CHROME plated crappy metal on the M3 (like your father's Buick) :p If you can’t see how that can be taken as being snarky about people using the term “chrome...

Two days ago, I got a fortune from a fortune cookie. It said, “ Do whatever makes you happy.” True story.

I ordered a Nikola Pro matrix black wrap for my console and steering wheel. Got it from amazon for $35. WELL worth it and not overly tough to install. As for must haves that’s absolutely individual dependent. For me: - Tint - Floor mats - Chrome delete - Center console wrap - NEMA 14-50 outlet

Wait. So people are bugged because people are calling it a chrome delete when it’s not technically chrome? <insert blank stare>

Looks great. I’m a fan of chrome delete but I’ll say black actually looks great to me even with the chrome.

Those look pretty good. Looks like they don’t wrap around the edges though? Is there Chrome showing on the edges?

Plastidip is doable but has anyone found another solution for a reasonable price? 3D printed or something maybe? To clarify, I want the whole badge black with no chrome showing.

I have PW/Black. I considered the white but thought it might be a bit much. Also, I like the cabin to be very dark at night and thought the white might be annoying. Additionally I’ve heard the white dash panel can cause some unpleasant glare. With all that said, it might’ve been fine. I’m loving...

Anyone know what 3M wrap color will match well with pearl white paint? I’ve read the pearl white doesn’t match well. Satin white maybe?

@Kenriko Is this an “any day now” project or is it “coming soon-ish?” Just curious since after doing the wheels, center console, and steering wheel I’m itching bad for a chrome delete. Will I be able to get: Window trim - satin black Mirror chrome delete - satin black Side camera - satin...

I want some white door handle wrap that matches the pearl white (or well enough). If pre cut, I need it to wrap around the edges so no silver shows. Anyone find pre cut ones? Alternatively, what’s a good wrap that would look good? I found the @Kenriko templates so I could have a local shop make...

IMO the only thing white trim would work on is a white car.

Me neither.

Agreed. My Edge had some nice color changing ambient lighting. I had to turn the 3’s off as I found the plain white annoying at night. I may look into changing them all out for blue. Anyone know offhand if the footwell bulbs and door bulbs are the same? Thinking of getting some from AO.

I thought I was going to hate it, but damn that's amazing.

Not positive at all, but I thought i read that was the standard way a 14-50 outlet gets installed for other applications? Maybe the way we want it for charging is actually the upside-down way? /shrug

What did you decide on? I'd probably do the other two on front and rear emblems.

Love it. I'm shooting for something very similar if not identical. How did you do your wheels? I'm going back and forth between powder coat (expensive but "best" solution), paint (a little cheaper, but not as durable), or plasti dip (cheap and less classy, but removable).

Any thoughts on what exact color those wheels are? I can’t tell if they’re just gloss black or if they’re some iteration of grey.

Edge Sport.

Here's my perspective as a new buyer. I originally ordered the 3 back on that first day about three years ago when we were first standing in lines to submit a preorder. To make a long story short(er), I canceled the order and bought another vehicle for about $40k. A week ago, I decided I'd...
