    Lowering the Model 3

    Thanks, looks great! Yes the sound was the best part with exhaust. I had the full M4. Can't tell you how many Harley bars and Ducati owners I rode past who looked up then sneered away lol. Pretty sure I went to a GSXR1000 after that bike. So comfort wasn't really part of the equation!

    Vendor The FIRST Ever Carbon Fiber Aero Kit for the 2024+ Model 3 Performance by Unplugged Performance

    Love this kit. What's the chances those side skirts fit Gen 1?

    Lowering the Model 3

    Which side skirts are these? BTW, I used to have a TL1000S. The R was cool, it wasn't out when I bought my S :)

    22 Unplugged Performance Fascia vs Highland

    The '22 is mine, the Highland is at the dealer overflow lot. I ran the numbers and found out I can upgrade my current car to my desired spec for about the tax difference selling my car and buying new so that's what I doing. Between taxes and fees alone would have been about $5k.

    22 Unplugged Performance Fascia vs Highland

    Took a video with my recently completed Unplugged Performance Fascia on 22 M3 LR and Highland LR in same base color. Others may disagree, but I'm very happy I chose the upgrade route vs selling/buying new!

    Park Assist not working

    Thanks! My harness is connected so not the same issue. However, while I diagnose the issue I turned on Tesla Vision instead of Park Assist and like it better.

    Range loss from wider not taller wheels/tires?

    Sorry I didn't keep them I just searched topics like 255 40 18 or 245 45 18 or 265 35 18 + Tesla Model 3 and found several threads here and on Reddit from people who changed tire sizes. Long story short, those that went wider in general seemed to report small to significant Wh/mi changes for...

    Range loss from wider not taller wheels/tires?

    Thanks for the reply on data 😀 I've since found a bunch of anecdotal data from people going to a wider tire on the same rim.

    Range loss from wider not taller wheels/tires?

    I prefaced my question by saying there is a ton of information on diameter. Theoretical and more importantly, real life data and testing. So what you did was reiterate a bunch of the available information on diameter but didn't answer the question on width. I was asking if testing and data...

    None of this has anything to do with my question, but thanks for the reminders!

    Park Assist not working

    I'm going through the same thing but on the front as part of a new front fascia install. Any updates to share?

    Parking Sensor S7 lost Comms

    I'm going through something similar, except ALL my sensors have lost comms. Now to be fair I just put them on a new UP Fascia, and may have some adjustments to do regarding being exactly level with the fascia. I've taken the stock fascia off and on many times and never had an issue before...

    Installed. If a picture is worth 1,000 words a video is worth 1,000,000. Just turn your volume down unless you want to hear the incessant buzzing of cicadas.

    Range loss from wider not taller wheels/tires?

    We've all seen multiple breakdowns of range and efficiency for changing wheels from 1 diameter to the next. My question, is there similar information available for staying the same diameter but wider? I have the stock18x8 and considering various aftermarket options at 18 x 8.5 to 9.5. For...

    Direct 18" vs. 20" wheel comparison for efficiency

    Something different from an M3P with aftermarket 18" wheels and touring tires?

    Fascia off to the painter today! Finally, 2 months after I thought it would happen. Here are the "models" for my fascia paint scheme. Inspired by, borrowed from, interpreted, copied...call it what you want!

    sdiver68 22 M3LR build thread

    It occurred to me that 1 of the things I dislike about Tesla looks is from the front you always see the giant silver screen. So I decided to swallow sticker shock and buy 1 of the matte CF covers. Was surprised there is no simple matte black plastic option available which would have served the...

    sdiver68 22 M3LR build thread

    New front fascia arrived. Unfortunately without the sensor holes drilled. Which would be no big deal except not only are they drilled out but need to add a 1mm inside lip on them. So I did that yesterday with drill + dremel and am waiting for spare sensor and gasket to test fit all prior to...

    sdiver68 22 M3LR build thread

    Going to 1 of the best wrap/tint/ppf installers in the area today to review options. Perhaps have a few more options other than what's listed above. 6) Go ahead with the matte CF parts and then use tinted ppf to darken. This will be $$ for the diffuser in particular but perhaps the only way...

    sdiver68 22 M3LR build thread

    So I love this diffuser, but wish the custom matte CF was a few shades darker towards black. As is, I'd consider the color anthracite particularly in daylight. In hindsight, and still a possibility if I want to uninstall and reinstall is to matte clear the diffuser again with some darker tint...

    Mostly but not 100% fit of my UP front fascia. They are sending me a new 1. Meanwhile, got my Adro rear diffuser sprayed matte and installed

    Unplugged Performance Fascia issue

    I agree thats not the root cause. There are physical differences in old vs new headlight but mostly on the underside.

    Unplugged Performance Fascia issue

    Update: UP looking into it. Possibly due to matrix headlights, but that's just a theory.

    Unplugged Performance Fascia issue

    After now 2 test fittings there are sizable holes left by what I would consider overcutting the fascia during manufacturing or maybe I got someone else's fitting mistake. See pics and video. I understand aftermarket parts aren't OEM and some fit tolerance is to be expected. But this seems more...

    Upgrade 22LR or buy Highland?

    Something to think about in the "Is it worth upgrading to Highland" that I haven't seen really considered in the various pros/cons discussions. After doing the math, I can spend about $5k upgrading my current 22LR just in tax savings alone. That doesn't include higher car, insurance, or...

    Different MSRP pricing on 2022 Model 3

    Yes I bought mine in 2022 and there were price increases every couple months it seemed. I got in about 1/2 way up.

    Hi all, Want to first thank forum members for being such an invaluable resource for me starting well before buying mine in August 2022. So far I've just done the usual small stuff. Frunk cooler, all weather mats, cubby organizers, removed wheel covers, etc. But then "almost year 2" fever...
