Tinting (and console wrap) recommendations - Central Florida

[Chasim]

Assuming it passes inspection... I should have my Model Y next week. I am strongly considering tinting at least the windshield. I also want to wrap the center console. Can anyone recommend a good detailer/business in Tampa or Orlando (or anywhere in central Florida)?

Also, regarding wrapping the console, I have looked at a few products and most DIY reviews seem pretty divided on whether it is just difficult or impossible. Assuming that it will not cost too much, I am probably better off paying someone else to do it (since I suspect that I would end up not being satisfied if I did it myself), but has anyone had a good experience with doing it on his/her own?

Thanks!

Console wraps are cheap enough to try it out yourself. If you fail miserably, then let the pros do it. You won’t be out too much.

Get a console cover such as they sell at RPM Tesla or Abstract Ocean. They're less than $100 and very easy to install on your own. Also look pretty good. I got one for our Model 3 and installed in a matter of minutes.

If you are getting a console cover, just get one from amazon/aliexpress....I can probably guarantee you the abstract ocean ones are just made in china and then marked up a bunch. Don't get carbon fiber covers...they don't look like carbon fiber, but instead get a flat matte or similar solid cover.

I got an ev wraps carbon fiber vinyl wrap...and it wasn't that hard to install, and feels and looks MUCH better than a carbon fiber abs plastic cover.

I can echo that. Ryan and his team are great! You never even know it's been installed (both PPF and tint), it looks so good. Can't recommend them enough!

I ordered a console wrap from Amazon, so I'll give it a shot. As far as window tinting goes, I'll try Auto Paint Guard in Tampa.

Thanks for the replies!
