Ive done a black one and a tan Model S for the same guy. Hes getting rid of his S for a 3 and will most likely do that too when he gets it!


Nice work

[JSFM35X]

Nice work as usual. I’m not sure where the speedometer is in the 3 but unless there is a hud it looks like the spedo is to the right of the steering wheel. Not sure I could be comfortable with that.

Beautiful job on an ugly car :D.....

[bodidly22]

Great job as always Scott - Respect to Tesla for OEM-ing Michelin PS4S too

[Mike lambert]

Excellent work! The fit and finish on those suck! Haven’t had one yet without sand marks and solvent pop, let alone what the dealership does!

[Sizzle Chest]

Thanks everyone!!! Speedo is to the right on the screen!

Mike, hit the nail on the head. I have told so many people that these have the worst fit/finish/paint/orange peel/pop I have ever seen on a factory car. Just terrible.

Wonderful job! We need to save those first pictures for the “do I really need to use Iron-X” questions.

^^^^Indeed!!!

Thanks!!!!
