Hm that thing on top of the "s" looks a lil crooked.
 
Think I'm done for now - gotta wash off all the finger prints...

Looks really nice! I have a real carbon fiber ground effects kit on order that looks just like yours.

Where did you get the front bumper apron applique? Is that the one from RPM Tesla? Satin finish? How hard was it to line up and apply?

And the fog light surrounds, do you recall ever seeing those in glossy real carbon fiber? I can only find the hydro-dipped ones and I'd like to keep the materials matching.

Everything I bought is real matte CF. I've seen gloss surrounds at RPM (I bought the matte from them) - yeah the applique is from RPM as well. I thought it would break up a little of the front lip. Honestly, wasn't too hard to line up - I think I'm slightly off on one side (maybe 1/8") but not noticeable - except by me. Honestly, if I was to do it over again I might try a wet application instead of dry. The vinyl got a little stretched out when I was trying to line it up which is partially why it's slightly off on one side. Heat brought it back, but it still wasn't quite right. Fine for now and if it bugs me enough I'll just replace it in the future.

Hahah that's one way to put it! The aero covers come off for a simple clean wheel design. Such a versatile wheel concept...

Yes... these are the same wheels... 😮



You're quick! Thank you ;)

Not to thread drift from Photos, however do you have any specs/info on how much the covers improve the Coeefficient of Drag or decreases the energy use over the naked rims? Love these by the way. Not sure how they’d look on my MCR P3D+…..they look amazing on the Black tho!

Hi Ski,

These wheels are brand new to market and we are picking up on specs and data as we go.
Our set is literally the first on a Model 3 outside of Forgiato HQ.


Without further sidetracking this thread, please follow the thread we made in the classified section for these wheels here:

We will post more details as we go. Our first shipment for the public is coming in next week, so that will give us a chance to throw them on a scale for weight as well. Feel free to publicly comment in that thread on anything you may be curious about. We will provide info as we learn more.


Thanks,
Danny

DIY Chrome Delete with Satin Grey Handles, RPMTesla Performance Calipers, and EVWheelDirect Turbines in Gunmetal

Really happy with the final look! The only thing I will say is that the caliper covers are not a perfect fit like they say and their customer service is terrible (I've emailed 3 times with pictures and no response). They are holding fine for now but I'll have to check on them periodically.
