I got mine in July 2017 and fell in love with it immediately. I have a factory Tesla hardtop, but rarely use it or the cloth top at all anymore.

Then just a few weeks ago, I saw this... it appears that the UV/scratch resistant clear coat is pealing off the outside. The photo below is that largest spot, but there are other, smaller spots where it is beginning to bubble and peal off.

It reminds me of the well know issue with pealing on the Roadster headlight assemblies.

Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas on what to do about it?

Any updates or the solution to the finish peeling?

Any suggestions from visium owners on recommendations for ordering premium vs basic. I was thinking basic version with PPF and/or tint applied after would hold up better than the exterior and interior finish on the premium, especially in hot and humid FL weather.


I think I may have lost my bolts, nuts and hardware for my Visium top. Anyone successful in getting replacement parts?
This was the quote for extra hardware, not cheap...
“Only the rear ones complete with screws 180 euros.
The front ones complete with screws 200 euros”

Where did you get this quote? And who do I ask? I'd like to go ahead and purchase

Anyone here willing to send me dimensions for the rear brackets? I might attempt to get them made here in the states. And length and size of the screws as well.

I'm close to putting it on, so can grab dimensions and pics before I do, but probably would be easier to just order from Italy. Probably won't get to measurements until Sun/Mon...

Thank you! I'm willing to wait. If you could post dimensions of the front items as well I'd really appreciate it! And yes the pictures too would be awesome. I can't freak'n believe mine are lost!

I’m local in Yorba Linda and have the Visium top on now. Let me know if you want to meet up and you can take all the photos and measurements of the hardware you need to get a set fabricated domestically.

OMG! Thank you @Gary1M
I'm in Irvine. I'll be back home in OC this week. Let me PM you now for a good time to meet! Thanks again and happy holidays! And thanks everyone here for replying. That's what I love about this tight knit roadster community...everyone always willing to offer a hand.
