There’s a ton of Midnight Silver Teslas, but this one is 1 of a kind ;)

Turned this Model S’ paint into a satin/matte/translucent version by wrapping it with Satin Guard. Not only will it protect against rock chips/scratches, but it transforms any car paint into a beautiful satin finish. Perfect way to change up the color of the car while still showcasing the original color while protecting it too. Satin black chroem delete on all the chrome pieces, and paint on the small badges/emblems.

Want to change the color of your calipers? PLEASE read this:

There’s several ways to do it, and everyone has their own method. Some places only use spray can paint and go to town, some places wrap them, and some even plasti-dip them. Every method has its pros and cons, so make sure you understand what you’re getting and paying for before doing it.

Here’s a S we chrome deleted and caliper painted. Red accents to pop, and changed the calipers from silver to red to match. We strive for an OEM feel/look, hence automotive grade paint is chosen for a beautiful red gloss finish. Our caliper decals are also applied with the paint so they won’t peel off over time.

 
Hey Pearl White 3 owners! If you’re looking for ideas to enhance the look of your 3, here’s one we finished up with recently:

-Photosync window film all around for the highest heat blockage in the industry

-Satin black chrome delete for a sportier look

-T Sportline black wheels to compliment the black & white color scheme

A quick tip to all the X owners wanting a chrome delete:

Get your badges painted for a cleaner/OEM look. Plastidipping them and wrapping them can work, but painting them just looks way better, as if it’s something that came from factory like the Model Y black trims. Highly recommend it. Here’s one we did for an example.

Not all vinyl wrap jobs are the same. Make sure you get the quality/standards you're looking for. See the work in person before hand if possible. Here's a S that we saw with some questionable wrapping that wouldn't be approved but if the client isn't sure what is considered 'ok', he/she wouldn't know what to look for.

 
Here's something for all the 3 owners looking to black out their chrome pieces:
Here's a black 3 with satin black vinyl wrap chrome delete. Slight contrast to the gloss black paint on the car, but so subtle still that everything looks so uniform and clean.
 
White Model X owners thinking about chrome deleting--check this out:

Here’s a white one going for a Stormtrooper color theme with the satin black black out. Mainly everything was vinyl wrapped except the badges which were painted (painting on badges is the way to go). It’s always interesting to see how a change in the small trims of a car can completely affect the entire look.

We also tinted it with 33% on the front windows, 20% in the back windows in Ceraluxe, and Photosync 70% on the front windshield. Gives you an idea what to expect in terms of darkness, especially for the back. Notice how even though the back is already dark from factory, with the 20%, it's still pretty clear inside looking out.

 
S owners looking to wrap their interior trim and want an idea, check out this design:

Subtle yet distinct, it’s a really unique pattern almost like a black floral/camo design. Great for those that want a black wrap but something more refreshing than the solid black color and less common than carbon fiber.

This is the most colorful Tesla Model X wrap we’ve ever done—satin psychedelic!

Love how when it’s cloudy/gloomy, it looks like a beautiful, clean satin gray wrap. But on a sunny day, the rainbows come out! Always fun to be able to do something unique for clients.

We also installed Brixton RF10 wheels on the X which really compliments the overall styling since we’re going for a sporty look. Best part is it matches well with the gray and doesn’t take anything away from the rainbow when it’s in full effect.

The thumbnail is literally how the car looks on a bright, sunny day!

3 owners looking to wrap their wood dash, check this out.
Here's one we wrapped in gloss white. Really changes up the vibe in the interior quite a bit in more of a modern fashion. Just keep in mind since the wood has texture, some of it will come through the wrap, giving it a unique finish.
 
3 owners thinking about getting a satin black chrome delete, check this one out.
Here's a 3 we finished up not too long ago with satin black. Car's black as well, so it ties in really well with the paint. Spectra Photosync tint on the sides and the front end is also protected with PPF.
 
S owners looking to change up the look of their interior--check this out:
We wrapped this S' interior trim pieces in shadow black. Really cool black camo/floral design depending on how you see it. Depending on the color of the interior, it can look really sporty or luxury imo. See what you think.

 
Model Y owners what do you think of this color?



We turned this Y into a matte slate blue—really clean and subtle! It’s more blue than the factory blue from Tesla but still has purple hues in it when it’s shady. Beautiful color and definitely a solid choice for anyone wanting something a little sportier but not too over the top. We also wrapped the center console in matrix black and tinted all the windows in Ceraluxe.



We also tinted a Model 3 in Photosync 75 all around in case anyone wants to see how a super clear tint looks on a 3. Great option for those wanting maximum heat rejection without the tint look.
