Red Model Y Waiting Room
- Thread starter J-a-x
- Start date
I got the plate transferred from my former car that I brought with me. Of course I told them beforehand that I wanted that done. If you go this option, check the requirements in your state. In my state, NC, you had to keep the old car insured until the transfer. So I paid for a few weeks of liability insurance that I didn't have a car for. To me it was worth to keep the license plate which is consecutive with my wife' car. YMMV.
For those of you curious out installing ppf... after a week, I'm glad I did. A car merged in front of me on the highway and was flinging all sorts of mud and sounded like rocks at my car. I passed them and their front wheels and fenders were covered in mud. Sprayed the front of the car off with water and no damage. Just got the inductions installed, getting the center caps from Tesla on Thursday as well as matte black logos from the ppf installers.

Do you mind sharing the cost of ppf? I was quoted $2,000 for madico ppf but I'm not sure if that's a good deal. I drive 100mi round trip 3x a week.
Depends what you're having done, and their experience/quality, but that sounds about right. I had the full frontal + headlights + front 2 windows tinted for about $2k+ tax. We didn't do this on our other Model Y and the bugs/rocks have caused some damage which made us take the leap on this one.
Update: picked up today. Everything align great. Fremont build with a built date of 2/9/23. Matrix headlights, front mud guard, and ppf on lower back door.
PPF for $2000 for everything painted is a very good deal, assuming they do a quality job. Do they tuck the corners? Remove / replace emblems? I don't think you need to tint the hatch, it's dark already. I wouldn't tint the windshield. I just wanted the windows to match.
Yes tuck not sure about emblems. I may order, bring in matte black style, and have them installed at the same time. MYP will have white interior so I want tint on the windshield to avoid the fishbowl feel. I've had windshield tint on my last 4 vehicles without issues driving at night or the police. Mainly in the 75-80% range so it's hardly noticeable. I'm going 40% this time.
Assuming you mean of our first model Y - I feel like a traitor posting a white car on here... (the car needs to be cleaned)

I've stopped maintaining it when I got my delivery date but made it public domain. Not sure how up to date it is now but here you go. Tesla Red Model Y Tracker
The way it is now it is live. It can be maintained by just typing in the squares.
I used to meticulously edit the spreadsheet to include every update that was reported in this thread and the generic order thread but now I'm relying on people to do it themselves and my guess is 9 out of 10 users don't bother... but yes anybody can update the data for their own order.
