scored a salvage Model 3 from Copart for $8k... thoughts? 🔧

Front bumper and suspension damage but the battery pack health is at 94%. Planning to DIY the rebuild. Total cost around $13k. Good flip or did I play myself 🙌🔧

Tesla salvage is risky, hope they don't ban your idk supercharging 💀

Check if Tesla has disabled Supercharging on that VIN. They frequently block salvage titles from teh network, which kills the resale value 💸😮‍💨🤦‍♂️
