    How did you manage the white roof box?

    I'd do it for the ride quality improvement alone.

    Tesla Newbie - PPF Necessary?

    Yes. I bought my MYP last spring and my wife a MYLR last fall. The federal and Colorado tax credits along with her trade in essentially made her's free. We are also very close to the income cap, so I figured I'd better get them sooner than later.

    Tesla Newbie - PPF Necessary?

    My 2022 MYLR had paint chips on the hood you could see the aluminum through. I wrapped both my 2023 MYs in matte for protection and to differentiate for the tons of other MYs on the road. If money was tighter I would've done the $1500 front end option.

    Model Y Performance - Incognito?

    The lowered suspension and crazy acceleration is also a tell tale sign. You have to swap out the suspension and keep it in chill mode.

    2021 MYP Uberturbine 21" to 20" Aftermarket Wheels... 30 pound weight savings

    Heavier wheels absorb more road impact. There is myth floating around here stating otherwise.

    Newbie/Rookie MYP Wheel replace question

    I bought the Tesla caps from TSportline. Perfect match. I tried Amazon caps and they were very poor quality. This setup is exactly what RoBoRaT recommended. Quality is good. Tires are CCS2.

    Roof Rack install with PPF use 3M stickers?

    For those that have PPF and the Tesla Roof Rack, did you use the 3M stickers that go under the rack mounts to "protect the paint"? I saw a YouTuber did not use them as he stated his ppf was better. Also, should this be considered a permanent install? Guessing we will only use it a couple...

    Debating the switch to 18 inch wheels from the 20 inch inductions

    I actually had a 2022 MYLR that had an unpleasant ride. I tried the MPP comfort coilovers and noticed to comfort difference. After the price drop and suspension improvements I upgraded to a 2023 MYP. That was a worthy upgrade. Ride is much better even with 21"s. Good luck.

    Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box

    Hmm... I'm starting to plan a road trip. I have a Skybox 16 in my garage rafters that I used on my Outback. I'd like to put it on my 2023 MYLR, but Yakima says it doesn't fit? From this and one other thread it appears it does fit, but anyone have any idea why they would say that? I haven't...

    Wall connector charger questions (install, tax credits, etc)

    Not only was I not able to write off the cost of installation, I had to pay income taxes on the two chargers I received through referral credits. Hard to complain too much. I did get $14k back for buying two MYs last year.

    proximity chime annoyance

    Is it possible it's a lane change warning? First thing I did when I got the car was go through every single setting and turn off any beeps I could. Good luck.

    Is it common to PPF just front bumper?

    Or do the whole car...😁

    Is it common to PPF just front bumper?

    You need the front of the rear quarter panels. They get shredded without protection. Front mudflaps are a must as well.

    Defrost and floor

    I didn't realize there was a wiper defroster. Cool. I tried using defrost in an ice and snow event last night. Yes, the windshield defrost is overkill while driving. You can't change fan speed or temp. Also, when I turn if off it does not return to previous settings. I use Manual and it...

    19" Gemini wheel covers - A recommendation to end all others?

    The 8.5 width greatly reduces the chances of curbing in a parking lot. Without the tires stretched over any of the OE wheels, you can reduce the risk. You can believe that.

    19" Gemini wheel covers - A recommendation to end all others?

    Yes, that's what I'm saying. I sold the rims and tires without the tmps and I priced low for a quick sale. You might be able to get $1000 for just the wheels. I'd search for existing Gemini sales on your local CL to see what they're going for. Also note that TSportline has open box...

    You could tell her they are cheaper than the Inductions and sell the Gemini to save even more. I've sold two sets on Craigslist. But I hear you.

    19" Gemini wheel covers - A recommendation to end all others?

    If you don't want to skimp, then consider aerodynamic rims instead of plastic hubcaps. 19x8.5" TSVs will save you from curb rash as well. https://tsportline.com/collections/model-y-wheels/products/tsv-tesla-model-y-19-inch-wheel-set-of-4

    Can you use it for ebrake turns? I miss the manual ebrake in the snow. I could even make the foot ebrake turns in an old Sienna.

    Tesla PPF?

    There are shops that have a package of just the front end and quarter panels for less than $1000. It's well worth it. My first MYLR had paint chips on the hood you could see aluminum through. My neighbor is now getting quotes to paint his year old MYLR.

    You definitely need it in that spot. Just make the spot bigger. Also need it on the nose and hood. Also, mudflaps on the front.

    Get the MYP. The build gets better every day, but it's still a crapshoot. You get what you get, you make a couple trips to the service center, and you decide to live with the few things that don't drive you crazy. I'm on my first Colorado winter and the Pilots have been fine. The wife's MYLR...

    Deep Blue Metallic Model Y Picture Thread

    You can curb the 20s too. Only real protection is to get wider tires, skinnier wheels, or both. All stock options are stretched tires over wide rims for aero. I put skinnier 19s on my wife's LR and am trying to be super careful with my car. In the spring I'll have wheel-repair come to the...
