[carlitost3zl@Y]

@ToutSuite you own them you can do whatever you desire with them

I did exactly the same and love the look.
I am also running badgeless in front and really like it.

This looks so good!!

Are there no holes underneath the badges in the new cars?

Mine (2020) had holes under the emblem so I had to put it back on. Love the Tesla lettering but I cant without expensive body work. Not worth it.

Wish they would of put holes under the stupid spoiler instead, thats what keeps falling off.

@MeetMikeyMike no. Initial few months of 2020 model year had the holes, but at some point (late summer, early fall last year?) they stopped using the hole.

Got black TESLA and dual motor in black
On blue it’s subtle…also for winter running 19” Gemini’s with satin black covers.
Thoughts?

Black emblems look great. Did you paint, dip…?

Rear one ordered off carbon prestige vendor.
Front was painted from ppf guy.

I’d actually prefer a more Carbon/dark gun metal as the black is too dark against the blue.
Ie. colour of the Uber rims

I'm clearly in the minority on this one. I find these custom badges tacky. Gives me Pep Boys vibes. Keep the OEM badges in their original place but have them painted black.

I find black on black is just too hidden. The gun metal/carbon of the actual Uber wheels creates that slight contrast. Better than oem chrome as I find those now out of place as soon as Tesla changed all the chrome trim to black. Just my opinion

Oh and I fully agree the TESLA Lettering is looking a bit tacky for me now. I’m going to put it back to the T.

Fair point. The black on black is counterproductive.

While black on black is hard to see I think it looks great, versus removing badging all together.

Still think dark pewter or carbon on black is class and provides a subtle contrast. The dark carbon wheels on black is an excellent contrast no reason the decals wouldn’t be…unless one is going for full stealth/black out

Has anyone found a place that sells high quality or OEM glossy black emblems for the model 3? Thanks.

Looks good. I am opting for just replacing the “T” for matte CF to match the rear wing and then removing the ”dual motor” all together So it will just have front and rear T.
