Trade: Wood Dashboard for White

[Mjolnir M3]

Hey gents,

I've been lurking for a while, but decided to finally make it official.

I searched the forum, but could not find any thread in Colorado about this. I am in the Denver area and I'd be willing to meet and make a trade for the white dash if someone wants the wood dash. From what I can tell, it should be a pretty easy swap and I will throw in a brand new center console wrap (matte black) for your trouble.

Hit me up if anyone is interested. Thanks.

PS. Sorry about the whole "gents," didn't mean to discriminate...

I did that swap recently and then wrapped my center console in satin white and I love the look. Makes the car seem more modern. Wood seems more appropriate to an older error for luxury cars. The sleek white aluminum or carbon fiber seems more modern to me.

Very cool, I hadn't considered wrapping the center console in a light color. I installed a matte black for a while and now I'm going to try out the black carbon fiber, but maybe I should have gone with the satin white.

How easy is it to wrap these parts? I have no experience with that, is there a good YouTube video?

Haha, yep, agreed. If that isn't great commentary on our society, I don't know what is.

The center console is relatively easy to do with a little patience. The material I've used has been pretty forgiving and yeah, here are a multitude of videos about the process.

Is there a bunch of dismantling of parts? I’d be nervous doing that on my new car with no knowledge of Tesla’s or wrapping in general. Love that you went white though. Got a pic of it?

I did not go with white, I did matte black and about to try back carbon fiber. There's no dismantling at all. The whole process is completely non intrusive and doesn't require any tools or mechanical know-how.

Thanks for the info. Got a link to where you bought the wraps? Sounds like an easy cheap way to customize your interior

Let me know if you have any questions or run into any problems.

I used RPM Tesla's and here are a couple of quick snaps.

 

[Mjolnir M3]

Wow, that looks absolutely stunning. If I get this trade, I might have to do that instead of carbon fiber.

 

[barjohn]

The RPM Tesla has an option for an embossed look Tesla logo. While it doesn't show in these photos, it is really cool.

Be aware as well that Tesla sells complete original white dashboards as well. Apparently the price is $175 usd. Allows you to keep the original to sell with the car or to sell privately.

Here is a better picture with the embossed look logo.

Is that a front facing camera on your phone in that setup ?

 

[barjohn]

That is a front facing camera and it's own 5" display. Makes parking a whole lot easier.

Called my local SC and inquired on White Dashboard from the parts catalog since my Model 3 was there for some repair work. I was told that parts are attached to your vehicle by your VIN. They said since my Model 3 came with Wood Dashboard, they are unable to place the order since the system will not let them. If anyone else wants to try below is the part #. Price was around $250 with $50 for Labor according to Tesla.
