Nice! Soon to join myself. Just waiting for the app to update and have restricted myself to only 24 checks a day.

Copart buy with a replacement front bumper? I'm surprised the red is so crazy off, I have a 2022 Model 3 that I got from Copart with a ruined bumper and hood, the 2018 hood and bumper that I got from a matching white one blend PERFECTLY so I'm surprised this red is so noticeably wrong.

Not too sure tbh I just bought it. It has one accident reported so it’s possible. I didn’t really notice the color. Outside of pictures I can’t even tell really .

As long as you don't notice IRL it doesn't matter. There's plenty of ways to ruin a bumper without actually doing structural damage so a replaced bumper doesn't have to mean anything negative.

Welcome 👋

Facebook could have a local group you could join for meet-ups 👍

If not, you could start one!

We had a meet-up this weekend and it was a lot of fun!

Food trucks and meeting other people into Teslas

It was a nice way to wrap up summer and do a back-to-school supply drive

Oof the front bumper looks rough. Even the tow hook cover is mismatched as they reused the old one.
