I've owned my Titanium ppfed MS for 6 years. 125K miles of mostly highway driving. No rock chips on the front. No side scrapes. No swirl marks. And...confession time...I haven't always hand washed. In fact, I've been through automatic car wash brush hell more times than I care to admit, especially in the last couple of years. Even after that torture, a couple hours in the sun and the ppf magically heals.
Is it 100% showroom condition? No, but I'd call it 90%. It still gleams in the sun or under the neon lights of the parking garage. Ppf is not cheap. But, I wouldn't have another high end vehicle without it.

Nice. In addition it should show the new hinges. And indicate whether they are unhinged like us or not!
So of course I entered my 2 week edd window today (March 13-26) and open my app to find my Tesla financing had expired.
I'm surprised I didn't get any warning or heads up that it was expiring. I re-applied and the application is pending but I'm really hoping this doesn't cause any kind of further delay.
Well the credit app approved again after about 2 hours and my VIN was just assigned! NF4738 with dates of March 15-19. Not able to schedule yet.

Ooooh. If you open the charge port from inside the car, does it animate on the screen? These are big questions, even more important than hinge upgrades.

They absolutely should. @Greentheonly posted this:
Goodness. Every time someone posts a twitter link and I click on it, my IQ drops 50 points. Yes, I’m negative now. But the absolute value is staggering.

Nice. Wish the whole animation was there. The hinge looks really interesting on that charge port. (NEW HINGE CONFIMED!?). It doesn't look like it behaved like the Model 3/Y which is a singular motion. One video someone posted a while ago made it look like it does some funky movement, but I'll want to confirm...
In fact, messaged a buddy to send me another video!
The PPF (with ceramic coating on top of that) made my car extra glossy! My dad looked at my car and commented that the paint looked "an inch thick!"

That was the hinge I was talking about when you guys said I was talking silly.

And Lord knows I could use an extra inch…
Jokes aside that’s exactly what I was hoping for, a deep glossy paint.

Yes, under the sliding center console door.
Also, yes that charging door hinge is certainly more advanced than the 3/Y. My friend sent me a video - when it folds in, the leading edge (left side when looking at it head on) moves in last after the hinge folds down. Interesting design…

Nice! Those 19" wheels without the aero covers actually look pretty great with the black paint, especially with those black centre caps and lug covers (this is what I'll be using on my Plaid for my winter setup). I hope I don't miss my black paint too much. It looks so sweet when it's clean and shiny but gets dirty so quickly, especially up here in Canada. I'm going red this time with my plaid and am trying to find some mud flaps in hopes that I can keep it looking cleaner longer.
@phecda Beautiful clear shot of the refresh 2.0 rear end! Love that diffuse glow on those new tail lights! How was your charging session? It looks like you had a low SoC so you should have been getting a good charge rate. I'm looking forward to trying my first level 3 supercharger with the new Plaid. My 75D can only go a touch over 100KW, which rarely happened...mind you the old S had free unlimited supercharging and the new supercharging rates are astronomical, so that sort of takes the fun out of it a bit.

Is someone with a refresh 1.0 in CA near @phecda if he removed his lights (front and rear) to see if they would retrofit in your car?

You deserve a tilting screen. To my eyes, the center screen is tilted...Nice. In addition it should show the new hinges. And indicate whether they are unhinged like us or not!

As a case in point, is FUSC worth taking twice as long at the SuC?
So many things like this to weigh..
