Welcome! Great looking car! Any problems (like long lines) with the superchargers opened up to non-Teslas?

No, here in NL no issues at all! A least not for me. I welcome them, they pay extra.. So indirect they will fund the installation of extra stalls ;-).

I have same colors, but went with 20% on front sides and 50% windshield. With the white interior, it really does make the tint slightly lighter looking. FYI.
New guy here. Just picked this up a few weeks ago and couldn’t be happier. Such a blast to drive! Just washed it tonight and wanted to get a picture!

Are you concerned of tinting a day after Ceramic? My experience is they spray a lot of water during the tinting and ceramic coatings set better with no water for at least a week.

Tint was 2 days after ceramic (I did the ceramic on Saturday, tint on Monday), and the coating I used (Gyeon Mohs) says to avoid getting wet for 12 hours, preferred 24 hours. I did that. I’ve ceramic coated a lot of cars and I’ve never gone an entire week before they got wet, that’s just not realistic.
You are supposed to avoid washing it with any strong soaps/detergents for 2 weeks.

Beautiful. Definitely good to take a picture after you clean your black car, so you can remember what that looks like 5 minutes later when it’s dirty again
Oh man no kidding. This is my fourth black car and every time I say I’m not going to get black again. Yet here I am. Can’t resist how good they look clean and, if I’m being honest, I actually enjoy the process.Beautiful.

Well you know what they say, once you go black...Oh man no kidding. This is my fourth black car and every time I say I’m not going to get black again. Yet here I am. Can’t resist how good they look clean and, if I’m being honest, I actually enjoy the process.
But I know what you mean — I find cleaning the car therapeutic/cathartic. But I'm not enough of a masochist to get a black one. I had one black car 20 years ago, that was enough.
I'm getting tint on 8/17. I think I'm going 20% ceramic all around and 50% ceramic on the front.
I have 70% on my bmw windshield and I wish it was darker. You can't even tell it's tinted.
My MY P is midnight silver metallic/ Gray with black interior

I think that’ll look great! I do like the 50% windshield on mine.
Just picked the car up from the same guys that took care of my Porsche here in Houston. I forgot to get a head on shot but I will and add it.
