anybody know more info about the new startech front ends available for Model 3s. I like them as I've always thought the worst aspect of my model 3 was the front end.

Hard pass. To each his own, but it’s a Tesla, not a Toyota.

Not a fan of any of these custom front ends. But, hey if you like it, go for it and ignore the haters.
I did see one in another thread which IMO looks much better than this one. See photos below.
Good luck!!

I think this caused at least 3 Tesla design team members to vomit.. hmmm no the Tesla is not a lambo it just does not look right.
That's going to really mess up aero. Would like to see real world affect on wh/mi.
Weird. It doesn’t seem like the OP asked people for their aesthetic opinions.
Word of advice: Don't post on public discussion forums if you don't want opinions.
Well, in defense of the OP, I agree that the front end looks like the "committee" just kinda said, "dunno, but no grille!" Not a fan, but also agree with the avalanche that you can't fix it by making it ape some ICE job...

Same here. First thought was the aerodynamics while my second thought was I don’t care for the looks. If the car was white with a red stripe and it was the 1980s perhaps it would be okay.
This is funny... These things are coming; it's only the beginning. The higher production numbers go, the more of this type of stuff will come out.
Realistically, you could punch out holes in the corners and mount heat exchangers in them for a legit use. Granted probably only 5 model 3's on this forum actually get driven hard enough to need that type of stuff, it does open the door to something more than using a 2" drill bit and punching random holes across the front fascia like UPP did.
