matte gunmetal wrap, de-chrome with matte black, carbon fiber trim (mirror bodies, top section of front grill, and rear diffuser), red accents, and staggered matte black 20" rims
Kind of agree. I think it would have looked killer with black (or matching grey) emblems/logos and the standard grey calipers. The rest looks really good.

I value Tesla designers' opinions more than yours
Love that the nose cone is identical in color to the body. I think the nose cone should be the same color as the body. The glossy black just doesn't do it for me. If I could get it painted MC red, I would. Once I get mine in June, I will be wrapping it with either CF or maybe matte black. Awesome wrap job.
Everyone settle. It's not a contest. All that matters is that each of us is happy with our own car. Not the Tesla designers. Not the other people on the forum. - - - Updated - - - To the OP ... though if you're going to post pics on a public forum, you need a thicker skin and not get defensive. You have to expect not everyone will love the car. As long as YOU are happy, that's all that matters.
I don't mind ... in fact, I welcome ... constructive criticism ... I just thought his snarky comment was a ***** move
That's unnecessary. - - - Updated - - - And has been handled. Really guys. Don't make me work tonight. I'm almost out of chocolate.
I like the mirrors - cool. And the door handles will be literally cooler when the sun is beating down on them I bet. I'm still trying to think of something to do so I can open my car door without a pot holder on a sunny day.
Overall a neat look, there's something about the red calipers that bug me though on it, not even sure I can explain why. I'm also not sure about the nose, maybe it would grow on me, but for now I prefer the black. I do love the carbon fibre accents replacing the chrome though, and the red logos really look sharp!
