This may be a dumb question...but is there any warranty or anything on these new front fascias? If it gets damaged I imagine you can't just take it to a normal shop or Tesla SC for repairs or replacement. Are you just completely out of luck if you get into a minor accident ?
the flip side is if you get into a minor accident w/ an old fascia, you can replace with new fascia since Tesla no longer makes the old ones.
Well, you cannot get many older parts from Tesla. I inquired about some new b-pillar interior panel parts and was told that they were not available.really ? I would think they still make old parts for the older cars, no ?

Also, I just had a rear seat latch break and I was told that they had to replace the whole upper rear seat back and I had some clips come undone on the front lower seat and they did not go into detail about the front seat repair but the whole issue was going to cost $4,000 to repair.
I fixed both issues in about 3 hours. The rear seat latch is now better than new without replacing the whole upper seat.... and the front seat needed the clips re-clipped and was missing a screw that I replaced. Total cost of maybe $10 for parts and I guess my labor was $3990
In that same vein, I was told that I had warped rotors on the front and that work on all four and replace the rotors and pads would cost $2,000. Removed the rotors and had them turned for $40 and the pads and hardware cost under $60 as I did not need to replace rear pads. Yes, my labor cost something and I guess it was $1,900...
As far as the front refresh, I purchased it 3rd hand from a TMC member at a cost of $1,000. I normally would do my own paint but am recovering from surgery so I spent $788 on front cover and hood paint. Add to that a clear wrap of lower hood and front refresh of $700. So as a tally I spent $2,488 total on front end.
I will work on taking pictures of the front and hopefully get them posted soon...
Driving to Michigan from Arizona on June 1st, so short on time. Father in law passed away recently and memorial to attend. I also have a overloaded 6x12 to tow back to Arizona from my father passing last summer. Tried to tow it back last November but got caught in a snow storm and had to leave it. In the storm I was only getting 100 miles per charge! Wish me better luck!
Thank you to all of the well wishers on my open heart surgery! I am still trying to get this dang breast bone to heal. A long process I guess, just happy to be alive...
Hey Brian did you give it a shot yet? I'm in Corona Ca, weighing it out. I'm not shy to work on anything, just rather not waste too much time when my goal is to have a nice clean newer appearance. Let me know.That looks awesome. I really need to get off my @ss and do this.
that looks really clean. I'm still stuck on the price tag, I just keep thinking Maybe OEM, but unplugged looks nice and easy.unplugged....

the shop that installed mine had never seen a Tesla (yea, me & the shop both took a risk) but this guy does complete restorations so I gambled with him....when done they said it was painless and Unplugged Performance directions were easy to follow....as of today, no regrets, love the look. Also, AP worked perfectly which I had read was a concern when changing out the bumper and sensors.that looks really clean. I'm still stuck on the price tag, I just keep thinking Maybe OEM, but unplugged looks nice and easy.

Unfortunately I have not. I’ve literally had the parts list sitting on my desktop for months but haven’t really been motivated to actually do it.
Does the radar unit remain attached to the ducting in the upgrade? And you get rid of the grill?unplugged....

Yea, the radar in the nose cone is attached to a ducting piece and covered with the grill. However in the refit, I don’t think the ducting and grill can work so I’m wondering how you kept the radar attached?are u talking about the radar dead center front on the lower portion of the bumper? that was swapped over from old to new along with 6 circle sensors.... yeah, the grill/nose cone is urs to do whatever with....
I just used a rubber gasket I found at autozone to cover up the hood gap and so far, it has kept rainwater and snow our so works for the time being. Some members have heated the area with a heat gun and bent the plastic behind the tesla T to fill on the gap but I’m leave it for now Incase I wanted to update the hood in the future.Alexvo, your car looks great . how did you address the gap between the hood and refreshed bumper?
