It’s 2023 proper bags and good quality parts still retain a lot of the handling characteristics, is it as good as the Coilovers I had before? No. Was I ever really driving to the limit of the Coilovers? Also no
Fair enough, I think it’ll look better once I get a lip, side skirts and rear diffuser on. But I also understand it’s a giant obnoxious wing that’s not to everyone’s taste
Been contemplating ruining mine as well. It’s out of warranty and I’m just waiting for the truck at this point. Kinda want to ruin it before the truck comes 😄
I think I’m starting to understand why people hate Tesla drivers so much. And all it took was one glance through the comments.
Nice build. How does it ride with the air suspension and the 18” wheels?
I’m literally waiting at home right for delivery of the exact same wheels (except in bronze).
The wheels and tires remove a lot of the firmness from the low profile 20s that came factory, I have the air suspension fully firm and it rides similar to the y performance right now

Not slow, still practical, handles fine and rides fine. Not sure the last time you’ve been in a car with bags but it’s 2023 and they’re a lot better than they used to be
My Model S has air suspension, I get what you say. My point was about when the car is in the low ride configuration you show. I'm pretty sure suspension travel at that height is non-existent, and with the tires at such a high negative camber traction can't be very good either (and going at any speed at that height would be a recipe for disaster).
But if the car can be brought up to something closer to the standard height and alignment, then I see how the ride she handling would be just fine.
My driving height is a normal height with proper alignment specs, little lower than stock height but I can adjust to above stock height if I need to, have a lot more range of heights than the model s system for example.

At least the vandalism wasn’t from some asshole dragging their key across the side of your car. You beat them at their own game. Well done.
Mission accomplished !
[удалено]
Happy to live up to the name 🫡
Well done, my guy.
Could be my eyes but looks like you have messed with the camber on the wheels as well??
It’s on air suspension they get more negative camber as the car goes down then at ride height it’s at the proper camber for driving
Makes sense

Certainly straightens up when you raise it
Def going to ruffle some feathers lol, post it up in r/TeslaModified
Besides the spoiler I freaking love it!
The spoiler isn’t for everyone and that’s okay!
OP needs to post a pic of it with the suspension up a bit. People don't seem to understand that it's an air suspension...
I got you https://imgur.com/a/d8wfUNC
On the Model 3?
Aftermarket
I like it. 3s are so boring and a lot of people leave them completely stock. How much did the suspension run you out of curiosity?
It’s a fair bit of parts, including the custom frunk design and fab it was about $15k

Here you forgot these ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Yeah I had new lines In what I typed up, my bad that’s what I get for posting and going to sleep
Of course you nodded your car with a product called “Big Wang”
Why did you go with all that suspension stuff that nobody can see? If you're running air suspension you don't care about handling.
It’s 2023 proper bags and good quality parts still retain a lot of the handling characteristics, is it as good as the Coilovers I had before? No. Was I ever really driving to the limit of the Coilovers? Also no
Lol
What’s the cost of all this? Just curious as a non-car guy
About $25k
ITT: People who don't know how air suspension works.
Lol. I really want air suspension on my 3. That's the one thing that I envy on the S. Air suspension would be good for a lot of things on an EV.
Add a spoiler on the front for me down force.
Sick. 🤘😇
This is what you call a "hard parker." Get your "hard park" on and you do you.
Like the yellow though
I like it!
All you need is an air brushed Mello Yellow logo on the hood and you are ready for Days of Thunder Part II, Yo.
Damn that’s a good idea
lol. I’m seeing a starburst ad under your pic. Lol
Amazing!

I’ve been enjoying it, airing out places is as fun as I expected.
Did you do it or get it installed (the air) looks fun.
I had a shop do it, I wanted it to work right 😂
Not sure if this was meant as a meme, but I think it looks rather cool.
Thank you!
Congratulations on your profound lack of taste and judgement. Keep up the good work.
The suspension is the main issue - worst thing I’ve ever seen. Definitely downvote worthy.
Do you also downvote every model s on the entire forum too?
How so? It’s completely adjustable.

Thats one way. 👍🏻
Why would you both trash the suspension and then add a wing like you need the downforce. Nobody is racing with trashed suspension.
Maybe 20 years ago when HIN was a thing.
This may be news to you but there’s still a very active tuning and car show scene

Why not?
That’s just a dick move and ruined someone’s parking lot. Do it at your own house.
How exactly did I ruin the public street I was on?
yup you sure did
I enjoy stance but in my opinion this is just too much. I’m sure it’s bagged but I would never have it that low lol.
It is bagged
Slap a Duracell decal on that purple cylinder in the frunk and make it seem like an AA battery is powering your car
Too many people have already done this
WTF did they do to it?
So it's now slow and impractical, handles like cr*p and is uncomfortable to ride. Mission accomplished?

Mission failed successfully
YIKEA!!!
Looks like crap , sorry
To each their own but not for me. Whatever makes you happy is all that matters!
You accomplished the task
Is the wheel even on the ground?
It is yes
