I got those here:
Model Y Mud Flaps Screwless (Set of 4)
COMPATIBILITY: Newer Model Y owners may have a grommet replaced with a bolt behind the rear wheel. On the rear mud flaps there is one bolt you may have to unscrew and then screw back in. The Model Y mud flaps are made from strong solid ABS rigid plastic. These are almost 3/4" shorter than...

Just got tints done today. Xpel prime plus all around. 20% front two windows, 45% rear windows, and 55% windshield. Not too dark with white interior.

Llumar CTX 30 (34%) front windows and CTX 50 (55%) rear windows. I also have Llumar Air 80 (77%) on the windshield.
How did your front defroster perform last winter with having a ceramic tinted front windshield? I'm worried it will block the defroster heat from melting the snow and ice and make it harder to defrost. I'm thinking about doing just a 50% Black Ceramic visor tint on the windshield above the legal limit (above the AāS1 marking).
Does anyone have any pics of just a visor tint on the MY?

Very nice!
How do you like the AIR 80? I am considering same for my windshield. Very impressive IR blocking specs for such little darkening.
Do you notice any distortion effects on the vision? I recall someone saying it looked a little "wavy" due to the steep incline of the windshield. How does it look to you?
Tinted front and rear windows and rear hatch today. Nothing fancy, just plain legal 75% all around, minus the roof and windshield, with Madico black pearl nano ceramic. Goal was just extra UV protection and heat rejection while maintaining outward visibility. For the windshield Iāll stick with my trusted CoverCraft sunshade.
Initially planned to tint the roof too but came across the following video that showed the stock roof glass already rejects as much heat as the best films. Saved myself $290 and preserved the stock roof view.
This forum thread has been incredibly helpful and I appreciate all the photos. Thanks.

I wish I could give you a true review on the windshield tint, but I've only had the car since June and immediately tinted. I park in the driveway and the outside temp is regularly in the high 90s/low 100s. With cabin overheat (no a/c) on, the car can still get as hot as 130 degrees.
I can say that there are no wavy or other vision issues though.

When the car is parked outside in the sun, the best ceramic tint still lets in heat but very slowly compared to bare glass. After enough time, the inside will get just as hot as a car with no tint. The real improvement is during drives when you physically feel a drastic reduction of heat coming in.
I had the car metered as it comes from the factory yesterday when I dropped it off to get tint & PPF, the fronts are 80 (metered 82) and the rears 20 (metered 21). I hope this helps for those who want to dial it in.
I personally am not going for the matched look, 20 is too dark for me on the fronts, primarily from a practical/functional perspective (i.e. night driving in anything but perfectly lit areas) but I also dislike the look (subjective). I can post pics of what I'm doing once I get it back.
P.S. For those matching, keep in mind that a) the rear glass literally just has tint, i.e. coloring ā there is no heat rejection in addition to what the front windows have, and b) if you want to get heat rejection you will need to put film on them, and adding anything, even 70 to it will make it even darker. Although, the lighter you go on the film, the less darker it will get. I don't care about matching I want high protection so what I'm putting on it will make the rears substantially darker than 20, which is great because that's the area I need most sun protection in (that's where the kids are
).
