May I use your New York pad while you're in PA? Lol.
Are the covers really useful/helpful?

Apparently, my vents are already covered? I bought them because of the tales of woe I have read about lost objects. If you need them, buy some mesh and some velcro and make them. The ones on Amazon I bought were incredibly poor quality. I'm going to return them.
DO NOT buy these:

Wife didn’t want nardo grey as everyone and their mother from Honda civic to Subaru has this color. Overused. Wife like the Purple, not see a purple ppf’d Tesla Y in NJ so far. It’s expensive, yes it’s basically 1k more then my Xpel matte finish. But I was sold on the hydrophobic finishing on the film.

Been watching offerup deals on a better bike rack. After a few weeks, I found one almost new! The guy has other toys (jetskis, atv, boat, etc) and did not have the time to ride his bikes. The rack was just collecting dust. I was able to lower his price to $350 for a Thule T2 Pro XTR. The wheels on it help a lot for this is not a light rack. The only thing I did not like is the 1.25" stem of which limits carrying weight capacity to 100#. It's OK I always remove the ebike's 13lb battery(w/ built in post & seat) anyway. So I'll be around 96# for the 2 bikes.
Today, I received my over-priced under seat storage. Nice but pricey for $50 a pair with top covers. Now we have more space to hide more junk. Ha!

carbon mist is not even close to the OEM color. Go to local Sherwin Williams Automotive paint store (it is different than regular Sherwin Williams store), and ask for Tesla Uberturbine wheel paint mix, and they will mix the perfect match paint for you.

That one sounds really good. I’d like backlighting that comes on when the car detects your phone but after market would be big wiring hassle, right? or could it be done with the CAN bus dongle and bluetooth?

I've curbed 3 out of my 4 Uberturbines. I used Carbon Mist/sandpaper to do the touch up after watching a Youtube video. It's true that Carbon Mist isn't really a match to the Uberturbine color, but since I'm not that OCD about it, it was close enough for me as I can't immediately see my ghetto touch up job as I approach my car. If I had to do it over I'd probably order the matching color from T-Sportline and do sanding and brush-on for the touch up job.

I got those glow in the dark handle appliqués several months ago and it was finally warm enough to put them on last week. I wasn’t too sure about how they look but they’re kind of growing on me, so I think I’ll leave them on for a while and see how durable they are.
