Hypershift on your Model Y

[zoomer0056]

A few years if you take care of it. It's been about a month since I did it and it's in great shape still here.

Thanks for the info. How do you take it off once it starts looking bad?

Let it warm up in the sun (or use a heat gun if it's cold out) to get it flexible, and some 99% alcohol in your sprayer

to each their own, but it's nice to see an option that you can do yourself and doesn't cost a fortune. They probably have other colors, too.

Why limit yourself . . . possible colors seem infinite.

I’m too cheap to do a wrap, and wouldn’t trust myself to do a dip, but that is absolutely gorgeous!

I don't mean to seem lazy by asking, but what's the cost of this? I'll research, just don't want to misunderstand anything.

I think the OP's car looks fantastic.

The Mrs is pushing me to replicate the midnight cherry color scheme. Now that’s something I can respect but this color changing seems super elementary but yes to each their own

DIY Cost?

 

[DukeofURL]

Was a little over a thousand dollars, but that cost also included the sprayer & compressor which can be used for future projects as well.

I helped a friend who used my setup dip his car, then did mine and I will give this one bit of advice to those who are looking to try it that I've discovered:

The taping and masking process will be the majority of your time, and it will be the largest determination of end result quality.

Yeah, spraying correctly will have a big impact for sure, but don't give into the temptation to skip on masking!

Thanks! We ordered it in white because we knew we were gonna wrap/dip it and why pay extra for a factory color you're not gonna see, but when we got it we started to notice there were SO MANY other white Ys on the road we would play a game of counting them when driving around, hahaha.
