I would not get hung up on those defects, I doubt they are noticable from a 6ft view. You can probably wetsand it down to make it less noticable. or throw some PPF over it to mask it. You can probably mitigate it with a good polishing compound as well.Well guys I picked up my new model 3 today! Unfortunately it has 2 paint defects that need to be fixed on the rear rocker panels. The one on the passengers side is quite noticeable. Looks like a drip of paint and sticks out a good chunk. Tesla gave me the option to leave it or have them repaint it. Not thrilled I have to deal with this but looks like I will be taking it on on Monday to have them fix it. Rest of the car looks great! No other issues that I can see right now. It's also raining and the car got super dirty already so hard to really see more. But all gaps looks great and the interior looks great as well.
I bet that damage will occur over time from just driving anyways based on how close to the wheel well it is.
