Guy hit my car, attempted to fix myself and now it looks worse. Should I get it repainted by a professional or wrapped?
So a guy reversed into me at a red light and fled the scene. I followed some YouTube tutorials. Wet sanded, repainted with a paint gun kit from TesLaunch. If you look at the photos it originally looked good. Then it slowly faded. Now there’s this huge light grey circle.
I’m debating, do I take it to a shop and repaint the whole bumper? Brand new car so I want it to be perfect.
I’ve had a company recommend they just come to my house and repaint it and it’ll be fine to drive the next day, but I don’t have a garage (it’s for storage and not mine).
Is it really okay to let someone paint it and leave it outside. It won’t get dirt or particles from the wind in it?
Would a wrap hide it? Tesla quoted me $3,000 for a new bumper said they wouldn’t repaint just replace the bumper.

What are my options to fix the paint job? Tesla said they would just replace the entire bumper for $3K.
Had a guy reverse into me at a stop light and then ran. I bought a paint kit from TesLaunch tried to fix it myself and it made it worse. Never doing that again! If you look at the photos it actually looked good when I originally did it, then once it dried the paint color was off. I followed the instructions and wet sanded and used a paint gun kit.
Anyways I called Tesla and they said they don’t repaint? They would just replace the bumper tried to tell me because of all the sensors it could be broken etc. I’ve been using self driving just fine, no warnings no issues. This has happened roughly 5 months ago.
I’ve had people recommend I just wrap it change the color, instead of blowing $3K to replace the bumper.
I thought about having someone repaint it got quoted around $400-$800 range from various shops. Just nervous if they will do a good job.
Does Tesla really not repaint things?

Has anyone bought the garage jacket from NTTD? Or the matchless jacket from spectre?
So I’ve been saving up for a while now and I’m torn between which jacket to get.
I can’t tell if either jacket would actually look good or if it just looks good on film. I’ve seen people post them online and I’m 50/50.
Anyone bought them? Which one is better?

Got charged nearly $4K from a company called fortiva? Anyone heard of them?
So I typically spend $1,200-$1,500 a month. Randomly saw I spent $6,700 last month.
I check my account and had four different charges to a company called Fortiva? Seems like it’s some kind of a credit loan company?
Has anyone heard of this company or any idea what could’ve happened? I reported it as fraud to my bank.

On the hunt for the best cherry flavor vape!

What happened to Wu? Who is the current GOAT seller
Been absent for a couple of years. I remember Jason007 and Wu were the top guys for awhile.
Seems like Jason is still popular. Haven’t seen any posts about Wu at all. Is he still active? Or did he become a bad seller?

Pip/Pearl fell off U1 Sub. How hard is it to replace the bezel?
So lasted me nearly 3 years. Randomly fell off. I attempted to purchase a replacement pearl on eBay. Tried super glue, and some other types of glue. Some worked for a couple of days then the pearl fell off eventually.
Seems like I need to buy just a bezel. Assuming you can get them off DHgate?
Question is, how hard is it to get the bezel off? You need a hairdryer and pop it off? Then either tape or glue the new one down right?
Ive got a Pepsi, Starbucks (VSF), should I keep the traditional look or do another color way? Any suggestions?
