Forget what you know about the company right now and think back to about 2010. What did you know about Tesla or electric cars in general? Not that much.
For a short while, it didn't look like electric cars were going to become a thing. Sure, a couple of celebrities bought the Roadster and talked about it, but most car fanatics bought into the hate over the range, build quality or the effect of making batteries on the environment.
Yet here we are ten years later, and no matter how cheap gas might get, Teslas are still really cool and highly desirable. Despite the practicality of the new Model Y or the wow-factor of the upcoming Cybertruck, our favorite is still the Model 3. It's obtainable and packs a lot of performance.
Sales of this sedan have gone through the roof, and because it's become common, owners are starting to get creative with the customization. In the absence of a body kit and with engine mods being impossible, the stance department is where the action is happening.
This is what's called a "Ruined Tesla", slammed so low to the grownd that it's almost touching. To get it so low without compromising its ability to turn the wheels, you need air suspension. The front trunk (aka the frunk) seems like the perfect place to install the necessary air tank, and many owners have jokingly wrapped it to look like a disposable battery.
This makes us think back to the early days of the EV. People used to ask all the time if you can change the batteries or where they were located. Tesla's way of spreading them all along the floor wasn't seen as the norm, as other automakers were developing plug-in hybrids instead of EVs and installed their systems in the central tunnel or next to the fuel tank.
