    Vendor How to Clean and Coat Your Model Y From The Comfort Of Your Home

    As a professional detailer specializing in PPF and Ceramic Coatings for the past 11 years, the number one question I have received from my customers is, "How do I maintain my car?". Unfortunately the answer to this question was more difficult than It should have been. It involved many steps...

    MPP AWD/Performance Coilover Impression and Installation

    Same as stock, Michelin PS4S, no rubbing or bottoming out. The coilovers are a huge improvement over stock suspension that would bottom out with any hard bump. I dont know the exact difference between before/after but It feels like energy consumption is the same if not better than before. The...

    Chrome Add - Model Y?

    I'd be resistant to chrome wrap over the OEM blackout, this being 1) Films do not do the best job sticking to satin finishes and 2) the chrome vinyls available really arent the most durable long term. I suspect there will be options moving forward to replace components to match the Model 3 if...

    Dropped off for Xpel Ceramic coating

    $1000 is definitely on the cheaper end of ceramic coating packages including prep, which may explain some of the imperfections you are still seeing after the coating process. Xpel does make an awesome coating!

    Front windshield tint rainbow??

    This is due to the type of tint and the tints UV rejection characteristics. Some films exhibit more of less of this but all films will have some decreeing of rain bowing effect.

    Window tint for MSM

    When doing your research, the MOST important performance specs to look for are TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejection) and IRR (Infrared Radiation Rejection). These are what make up the total heat you can "feel" coming through the glass.

    Rear Spoiler Ceramic Coating Issue?

    The spoiler should have no problems with adhesion on top of PPF or coatings. The double sided tape used for mounting is able to withstand strong wind forces, so there is no need for any special prep aside from application to a clean/debris free surface.
  39. Tim@adonisdetail

    3P+ Spoiler Appointment for this weekend!

    It wont affect the ceramic coating and assuming they use 3M double sided tape to mount it'll bond/adhere just fine! Still waiting on my email. :/

    PPF proper installation question - not wrapped around edges is normal?

    Not a problem, happy to help out! If you are looking for your own Model 3, do consider full custom over precut. The main reason (aside form wrapped edges) is the fact that the front bumper is possible in one seamless piece. Although this is very difficult and most installers cannot accomplish...

    PPF proper installation question - not wrapped around edges is normal?

    Joe and his team do very good work, but there is never an install with no visible edges or seams. Some areas cannot simply be wrapped cleanly or reliably around
  46. Tim@adonisdetail

    PPF proper installation question - not wrapped around edges is normal?

    PPF wrap is 4 times the thickness of vinyl thus making it impossible to contour to all edges like a vinyl wrap would. Some shops remove large components like bumpers to wrap between these areas, but over time the movement of the body panels will cause them to lift up anyways. Edges are...

    Any PPF Group Buy in San Diego?

    For those looking for Paint Protection Film (PPF) on their Tesla Model 3, I highly recommend doing your homework prior to choosing a shop. Its best to view work in person and make a decision on quality of work rather than discounts/pricepoints. Many of our clients have had the misfortune of...
