If your Model 3 is in a collision, contact Tesla
or a Tesla-approved Body Shop to ensure that
it is repaired with genuine Tesla parts. Tesla
has selected and approved body shops that
meet strict requirements for training,
equipment, quality, and customer satisfaction.
Some repair shops and insurance companies
might suggest using non-original equipment or salvaged parts to save money. However,
these parts do not meet Tesla

1.Get isopropyl alcohol and test it on a non-
visible painted surface of your vehicle to
confirm that it does not damage or
remove the paint.
2. Clean the mounting site with isopropyl
alcohol and allow to dry for at least one
minute.
3. Fully remove the protective tape from the
adhesive at the top of the bracket and
partially remove the tape from the top of
the adhesive on each side. Leave the
bottom half of the tape on the sides in
place and fold the unattached tape
outward for easy removal after aligning
the bracket to the bumper.
4. While tilting the top of the license plate
bracket away from the bumper (to prevent adhering it to the wrong location),
align the bottom center of the license
plate bracket with the middle of the grille
as shown.
Note: Be as precise as possible when
aligning the bracket because you will be
unable to reposition it once adhered to
the bumper.
5. While correctly aligned, move the top of
the bracket against the bumper and applypressure so that it is held in place by the
adhesive.
6. Remove the remaining tape from the sides
of the bracket then press the entire
bracket firmly against the bumper,
ensuring the bracket is held in place by all
adhesive areas.
7. Once the bracket is securely mounted, use
the four supplied screws to attach your
license plate to the bracket (tighten to 3
Nm/2.2 ft-lbs).
