Thanks for your feedback :-) I'm thinking the same - I like the chrome actually, with tint and red calipers. Left you one last photo with the combination you like, hopefully it's useful for your future modding :-)

Haha cool :-) I don't have money for these mods yet, except the rims. Was going to paint the calipers myself, and *maybe* try doing the chrome delete too. But I kind of like the chrome accents. What do you think, which version do you like best. Here's another version with the rear passenger...

Trinifry or others - if you want to see these wheels on a black car but with chrome delete / painted calipers. I did a bit of editing for myself to see how it looks. Trinifry - hope you don't mind I edited the photo of your car. I'm definitely getting these wheels, and wanted to see how it...

Thanks everyone for this post. It feels like i've been hunting forever for wheels that are similar to the sport ones, and they look great in that photo.

Hi van, what model / trim did you order? I ordered back in Feb 28 and received it March 30th, 2019 - i'm shocked that you've been waiting 61 days. I was calling them every week, after the 2nd week of waiting lol. I have no idea if it mattered or not but I was a reservation holder but aside...

Guys - i have the 3D Kagu mats. They look fantastic...when they are clean. The texture means that when it gets muddy, it's harder to clean than I think a flat surface, I have to whip out the green scrubber to get it clean. I have yet to experience winter with it, this was early spring.

A good detail with paint correction won't cost 1k after 5 years - but generally speaking paying 6k for a PPF wrap doesn't make sense either. In my case I did get a PPF wrap for the full hood, front bumper and rockers at $1600.00 - it still hurt, and if well maintained and well installed it's...

I would feel the same way as you - and truth is nobody can really related to your experience because "most" of us have had a good experience, or are not in the situation you are in. So that sucks, and I empathize and then it all kind of piles on. I'm from BC too, the luxury tax sucks but that's...

Good post - I got a partial PPF wrap (full hood, front sides, bumper, mirrors and front pillars). Only my hood and front bumper are wrapped around so it's more seamless and won't catch dirt. I honestly am not sure what the difference is, or why it's done this way but I ask my PPF installer. I...

Wow, never would have noticed. Thanks!

Fantastic, and confirms what deep down inside all of us Tesla adopters think and feel about changing the world. Just imagine, if there was political willpower behind not only Tesla but clean-energy innovations -- we can't imagine "better" until it's here. Those days when people said...

Hi, when I received 8.4 I remember it mentioned the 5% performance improvement. 8.5 - if I'm correct, has the improvements to Autopilot (automated lane changing) - I'm assuming it's Autopilot and not FSD. I will find out soon enough!

I had NO idea...that's pure gold. Thank you.

Thanks, appreciate the detailed post. I haven’t run into any screen or operational issues with 8.4 so I should be happy with its stability as you say!

Are you still waiting? It would seem that end of March push was very much by convenience (whatever is closest to Fremont or easiest to deliver elsewhere). I've the car for 15 days, and am quite surprised to see many in the poll above have no received their car yet. If you haven't received your...

I've had my Model 3 SR+ for 10 days, so I don't have a lot of experience with OTA updates. I had one update on the day I bought the car I came home, and have been hoping and waiting for the new autopilot upgrade but it still hasn't shown up. According to the app "Stats" 60.3% of all Tesla...

What browser? My SR+ doesn’t have that, us it supposed to?

I can only say, the white interior is better than I expected. They’re so white, like fluffy clouds and sooo comfortable, I didn’t want to get that wood dashboard and I’m so glad I waited. It’s worth it !!!

Hey buddy, car looks amazing. In your state you don't need a plate on the front? That's so nice - i was just thinking how about how awkward it looks to have a license plate on the front bumper ugh!

I used P&S Beadmaker - it's amazing. Took about 20 mins to do the whole car, and right away it had this amazing gloss and the surface was so slick it's hard to describe. Let's say if I leaned on the car, I'd slide right off and fall down lol. The car was detailed before delivery so was already...

Hi all - I took my car last Thursday, and wanted to share some photos. I've spent the last few days getting used to the car, washed it, used a really good sealant on the exterior and also ceramic coated the white seats. All I can say is - it's an amazing car both performance and appearance...

Here's mine, SR+ black / white, 18" w/o aero caps - 1 day after wash and P&S beadmaker - so it's pretty glossy and looks great on a sunny day.

Jason, what do you think of ceramic coating for vegan leather? I applied Gyon Q2 Leather Protector - seems to be working fine so far. I don't know how good my application was, but I was told by another detailer it's what they use.

It's not a sales pitch - Optimum products are great, and easy to use for "beginners" like us who want protection. If you really want good protection, you should look at what the pros are using. I've researched and watched literally 100 videos on paint and leather protection. I myself have the...

Picked up SR+ black / white interior - they are very busy and we ended up having to wait 3 hours because our delivery advisor thought he told me Saturday. Car drives great, white seats are amazing both in looks and comfort. Took a few hours to get used to the incredible instant torque and the...

For anyone is interested, I was told by a detailer that you can use a ceramic protector like Gyeon Q2 on your vegan leather. I plan to do that on my white seats, it basically makes them super hydrophobic and will repel any stains including jean dye. Which really means you can wipe off without...

Thank you for taking the time. I cost an arm and a leg, I’m glad I can use it to protect the seats.

Delivery advisor doesn’t contact you until the car is on it’s way to the delivery center. I was contacted roughly one weekly before the scheduled date, then told by this delivery advisor to disregard the date in my account. So what sales knows and what the delivery people who take the car, are...

I bought Gyeon Q2 ceramic leather protection which is supposed to be great on leather then realized my interior is not really leather. Has anyone used it before?

I'd wait - i can't imagine your wait time being more than days, or a week if it's a minor hold up like in a delivery? You picked white interior for a reason, and I saw white seats on a Model X and they look so good. The 19" sport wheels also look amazing, I got the 18" aero wheels...primarily...

I totally agree with you !

Happy for you and happy to hear. I have zero doubt in my mind, that other cars face similar or possibly worse production issues. My current car (soon to be old car) is a 2011 Hyundai Tucson. It's had 2 recalls...one of them involves catching on fire for no reason. It's been a very reliable car...

Hey Joe! I received my 3D Kagu mats from you - they're awesome looking. Two things I wanted to mention - one, is it took 3 weeks to ship to the West Coast (Canada)...not much you can do about that. The other thing is duties - my postman said next time ask them to put something like "From Joe to...

Seems hit and miss whether the car has mats. I ordered 3D spider kagu mats 3 weeks ago, they finally arrived and am two days away from taking delivery. So oddly enough, I'm hoping there are no mats lol.

Congrats! I'm excited for you, and am roughly a day away of taking ownership of mine. I expect there to be some very minor flaws, this is the expectation I'm setting for myself - but otherwise I've got 3D Kagu mats ready, screen protector and my garage all setup. The only thing that will...

I have no stats to back this back, but LRs appear to take longer especially right while as they focus on volume and not so much profitably (insert lol). If I ordered an LR, I'd expect white glove treatment...but what I've seen from other people with LRs...is that they are waiting and waiting...

I empathize with you buddy - we're all SUPER excited to get our car, and part of the problem is that we expect to happen like a dream come true. That's just how things are, and I can understand your disappointment. Just try to look at it from a different perspective - you have a home, job...

Vegan leather - I don’t know if it’ll behave the same way, but I’ll find out.

Tesla delivery advisor told me that the schedule date in my profile is generated and by no means accurate. So despite having a date and time, he wants to schedule a tentative date / time. Funny stuff.

Beautiful, can you share a photo where we can see outside and inside? The white seats look stunning. I bought Gyeon ceramic leather protector (pricey) but supposed to make leather pretty much hydrophobic against any liquid or stains including jean dye transfer.

I’ll post photos when I get mine, please post your car as well. White interiors ftw :-)

Stop at a gas station, and belly laugh.

Did you have a VIN assigned also? That sucks but at least you know your car coming, probably very soon!

My VIN showed up today, 1 day after delivery date appeared in my profile. Delivery in Vancouver, BC - all signs point to “this is happening!”

Looks like Canada / Good to know, how have March 27 delivery date but no VIN, and no call yet. Hopefully if not this week, then soon after!!!

PPF is literally a car condom lol and will not protect against large rocks, dents, car door dings...but it’s a physical membrane. Wax is literally a layer of wax. Sealants are polymer based coatings that last longer, and ceramic coating is siO2 based and have the most durability due to how they...

If you like driving a very shiny car, then spend on PPF and ceramic. Yes they work, they’re expensive and they’re sold to people who do not or cannot do their own detailing. It all boils down to how OCD you want to be. Like other people have said, forget resale value... I don’t think model 3s...

That’s awesome!

Hi, mine is March 27, no VIN - also Vancouver, BC :-) Have you had a delivery advisor contact you yet? Not sure what kind of payment I can bring. Certified cheque? Money order?

As much as you want the car soon and I don’t blame you. I agree, they have to divulge any incidents or work being done. It could very minor like a door latch, or what not. But do your due diligence, check odometer and make sure it’s a brand new car. If there’s one thing Tesla is good at, it’s...
