PPF Yes or No?

[SpicyPaneer]

New Model Y owner here. Don't have a lot of bugs around here and it never snows; not doing any off-roading either. (I live in Santa Monica, CA.) Took delivery this week and it came without the rear PPF and no mud flaps. Don't think I'll opt for a treatment that costs thousands of dollars. Should I consider the rear PPF DIY option? Mud Flaps? Tesla or aftermarket?

It’s just a preference, here on the east coast we have lose gravel form the craters in the roads and debris everywhere. A new car can have 30 rock chips under a month. It’s just a insurance for some of us and lest not forget the jealous keying bastards too.

The rear PPF and mud flaps front work hand in hand to solve the same problem. Sand and debris from the front wheel acceleration damages the rear door and trim. I highly recommend both (low cost) for any area in any climate.

This is very true, I'm finding.

No. The simple one Tesla offers.
