In my opinion, the Eagle Touring tires are the best tires for everyday S driving. They have foam inside to damp sound, and since road noise is the major source of sound inside the Model S cabin, you're looking at a significant improvement in the quality of your experience. You should feel lucky...

If your goal, like me, is UV and heat rejection, you don't need to tint the windshield. To his credit, my tint guy actually refused when I asked him to do it - he said it already has it and he didn't want to rip me off. I did some research and it turns out that the laminated glass used on...

S owner here. I did lots of research into this when getting my windows tinted. I can confirm that Lamisafe is laminated glass and will block out UV. Laminated glass has a plastic layer that makes it both safer from a crash standpoint and a UV standpoint. Temperlite is tempered glass...

I had the great good fortune of coming across Benjamin at Bemaro Films. He will do chrome delete, wraps, tinting, and more, at your house, and with an attention to detail and care that will astound you. He's a meticulous, Jedi Master type of person and cares more about the job than making a...

I had my car fully wrapped in Xpel by Benjamin at Bemaro Specialty Films. I can't say enough about what an amazing job he did and how happy I am with his work. I've raved several times in the forums about him. Here's a summary: 1. There are a lot of places to cut corners. For example, a lot of...

I had my S fully wrapped by Benjamin at Bemaro Films and can't say enough good things about him. See my older posts about him. He works extensively with Teslas and has several videos up on Youtube. I recommend his tint jobs, too.

I got my S fully Xpel wrapped and can't say enough about how happy I am that I did it. The Tesla's paint is soft due to CA air pollution requirements and when I closed my garage door on my S, it was nice to be protected. Then there was the time somebody opened their car door into my side...

I second the recommendation. I had Benjamin do my Model S, full wrap and tint, and he is simply the best. I've posted extensively about him in the forums before... glad to see somebody else appreciates Benjamin's great work!

I have a non-D 70. For me, it was definitely the right decision to skip most of the options. You're moving from a clamshell phone to an iPhone, and getting the 64GB model instead of the 16GB model is peanuts compared to the paradigm change you're about to experience. In my opinion, the great...

I got my wrap in 2015 and it's entirely possible prices have gone up since then. Or perhaps I'm just a great negotiator. ;) As for the smudges, are you sure they aren't reflections? You can see the same areas starting at 4:08 and 4:19 and they look fine. I'm guessing what you see at 4:30 is...

S owner here. For those of you in the LA area, I had my car fully wrapped in Xpel by Benjamin at Bemaro Specialty Films. I can't say enough about what an amazing job he did and how happy I am with his work. I've raved several times in the forums about him. Here's a summary: 1. The wrap has...

70 S owner here… I had my car fully wrapped in Xpel by Benjamin at Bemaro Specialty Films. I can't say enough about what an amazing job he did and how happy I am with his work. I've raved several times in the forums about him. Here's a summary: 1. The wrap has saved me from dings and...

I had Bemaro Films do mine. Hand-cut, amazing job, and last I looked every review was five stars on Yelp. They'll come to your house and really care about doing the job right as opposed to making a quick buck. For example, they used bottled water, not tap water, to protect against mineral...

Oh, yeah, I forgot about the LTE. Another reason to get a more recent S. I just wish my web browser weren't so slow (I think it's the CPU) that it's hard to tell it's not 3G! Agreed that getting a Tesla with AP is the way to go for used. Most of the AP cars feel like they're put together a...

Twonius, I would avoid buying used if at all possible. Build quality has gotten much better and there are many design refinements. For example, 2013s have loud compressor pumps, lack the hill hold feature, have a back-assward arrangement of cruise control stalk and turn signal, feature...

70 owner here. When I bought my car, I thought pretty hard about the 85. My experience and a loaner 85 really changed my perspective… First, I was surprised to discover the 85 was about 10% less energy efficient than the 70, probably because of the extra battery weight. Then I realized...

I have a 90% (of visible light passing through) tint, the sunshade, and rear seats. The tint is supposed to cut heat by 50% or so and I believe it. The tempered glass in the back passes a lot of UV as well, so the 99% UV rejection on the tint is important to me, too. The sunshade works...

I think it was $4500 for a full wrap on my S. Pretty much the best price I could find in the LA area, and he came to my house.

I have an S and got a full Xpel wrap on the car (plus tinted the windows). I can't tell you how happy I am to have gotten the wrap - it's saved my paint job at least ten times in the six months I've owned the car. I've banged my lift hatch against the roof multiple times and scraped my door...

I'll take it!

I just had my Tesla fully wrapped in Xpel by Benjamin at Bemaro Specialty Films / Mobiletint.com. He owns the company and will personally come to your house to wrap your car. I can't say enough good things about this young man - he's someone that really cares about his craft and doing a good...
