Q: Will lowering my car reduce my ground clearance and what happens if I scrape my car?

Yes, your ground clearance will be adjusted by equivalent lowering value of the lowering spring you select. We address this question in greater depth above within the subject “which version should I get?”. Cars of factory height and of all shapes and sizes unfortunately sometimes encounter situations in which they scrape and/or incur damage. In such cases the cost of that damage is the responsibility of the driver and not of the vehicle or aftermarket part manufacturer. When choosing to lower your vehicle, we encourage you to be aware that you are reducing ground clearance and therefore increasing your chances of impact. Drivers of previously low cars tend to understand this inherently, however if this topic is new to you please take consideration of all facts before making your decision.

Tesla Model Y Luxury Pro Coilover Suspension Kit
The shop we had these installed was a 1.5 hour highway drive away so the trip home was a great test to see if we liked them (we live in NC). It was immediately noticeable that the ride of our 2021 Y was softer and bumps were not as hard. We had the shop set our coilovers to setting number "3" and...

Tesla Model 3 Ascension Front Fascia System (Front Bumper)
This is by far the best front fascia out there and its makes the Model 3 look so much better! It gives it a much sportier look and I get comments on it all the time. One of the simplest upgrades that makes a huge difference as far as the look of the car goes. Couldn't be happier with how it looks....

Got the Street/Track version for my 2022 Performance 3 and couldn't be happier with them. I combined them with the Moderate Lowering Springs and this combo is perfect. The turn in is quicker and with the reduced body roll it makes the handling now better match the acceleration abilities of the 3. ...

Installed the black BBS Flagplatz and Ti lug nuts with 255/35/R20 Michelin PS4S on my M3P. Really changed the look of the car. IMO the ride feels smoother as well.

Tesla Model Y Luxury Pro Coilover Suspension Kit
I bought 2023 Tesla Model Y in December 2022 and immediately noticed rough and bumpy ride. I contacted Tesla service, assuming that something is broken, but they confirmed that this is how stock suspension supposed to feel. Fortunately an aftermarket solution exists. I ordered Luxury Coilover Kit...

Tesla Model 3 Ascension Front Fascia System (Front Bumper)
After using the fascia for over two years, this feels like a must-have Tesla upgrade. The stock Model 3 just doesn’t look the same anymore. I would recommend epoxy over double-sided tape to secure the ultrasonic sensors for a longer-lasting, flush fitment.

Phenomenal brake pads. As my daily grocery getter and occasional spirited driving, yes these may be overkill for some but with how fast the M3P is you can't go wrong with better stopping power. I've had these pads since April and would highly recommend to anyone that does occasional track days...

The stock brakes are dangerous. A silly underpowered part. Immediately shift to these track tested brakes. Safety is all that matters! The bonus is the gorgeous disk!
