    I installed these on my model 3, two years ago at the time of purchase. I've since added 63,000 miles. I didn't notice any change in sound but since the model 3 rides quite low I've scraped the front plate several time entering and exiting certain business entrances. 1) It has held up great. 2) It has protected better than the plastic OEM skid plate would have. I recommend. Installation was easy,. I used the blue locktite to ensure the bolts would stay in place permanently.

    Put jack stands under your car even with the ramps. You're supposed to double up when it comes to safety. If the ramps fail, you won't get squashed.

    I’m surprised tesla didn’t do a good job protecting those coolant lines. I’ve seen story where someone ran over something on the road causing a non-protected PLASTIC coolant connection into main battery pack…Tesla’s solution was to replace the whole battery pack 🤦‍♂️

    • @sunchiadventures

      Seems like the coolant line guards a must at the least. I have heard and read stories on reddit about people damaging those lines pretty easily after running over an object that was unavoidable.

      This just happened to my 2024 tesla y 2 weeks ago. A ran over piece a hard object on the highway and it damaged the coolant line and power train hose. After seeing how poorly they protect all of these expensive components like the battery, i am convince that they do it to make money with tones of reapairs. I know that people will be filling lawsuits for this.

    Thanks for the video. What year is your model Y? Tsportline is currently out of stock of their skid plate and I checked at amazon and their front skid plate have 2 long tail on the side. I cannot find exactly the same as the Tsportline. My model Y is 2023 Dec Freemont built.

    Does the bolt on the new coolant protector long that touches the coolant line? I saw one post in a blog that one of the screw almost pinch the coolant line?

      We have not taken it on a road trip yet but we are heading to the Grand Canyon in a couple weeks so I will be able to test this out first hand and let you know. I was surprise to see how much dirt, sand and debris I found on the underside of the stock panels.

      Difficult to tell the difference without being able to drive a stock set up and then with the aftermarket skid plates right after. I also didn’t measure decibel levels.
      But I can say there are no odd, out of place sounds or noise with the aftermarket plates. No rattles or rock chipping sounds either. The car rides smooth and the road noise is minimal with the new plates. Overall really happy with the set up.
