    Oregon - Clean Vehicle Rebate Program 2023

    I just checked the site, and I’m still not seeing a 2023 option for the MY.

    Yes, it’s matte PPF. Stealth is the product name. https://www.xpel.com/products/paint-protection-film/stealth

    Model Y Performance 21" Tires - Larger, More Comfortable Fitment Details and Experience - Michelin AS4's (With Photos)

    I have not had my alignment checked, but have no reason to believe that it needs to be checked. I had mine installed at Les Schawb because they were about $40 cheaper than discount tire and Costco. When I asked to have them installed, the employee at the counter warned that they were not OEM...

    Oregon - Clean Vehicle Rebate Program 2023

    Maybe the $49,990 priced model as it falls under $50,000, but it will depend on Oregon if they want to add the 2023 MY drop down option. Worth an email to ask.

    I paid $6050 for the PPF plus XPEL Prime XR-Plus window tint on all window and windshield. I did negotiate about $1300 off the original quoted price, but this was based on other quotes I received from my surrounding area. So, no, I don’t feel that I paid less than the average going rate which...

    One more question I have on this subject is: Is there an issue with removing the spoiler and getting it to restock to the PPF? I’ve read others that stated “the spoiler is one time use” and when you remove it, you need to replace it because you’ll have sticking issues. I also read someone...

    Thank you for your feedback. I will definitely approach this with an open mind. I now understand that having a seam is a valid method, and no, there was not any discussions about seams vs. no seams before hand, as I was not fully educated on all the different approaches that could be taken. I...

    Front window tint recommendation and price

    I went to Elite Window Tinting in Portland Oregon, original price quote: All 4 side and rear windows, XPEL PRIME XR-PLUS 98% HEAT REJECTION: $629 Windshield, XPEL PRIME XR-PLUS 98% HEAT REJECTION: $399 I went with 55% on the windshield and 15% uniform which put 15% on the front two side windows...

    The only issue that I am not 100% satisfied with on my install, is how they handled the rear potion around the spoiler. They left a seam that is visible. Can anyone provide insight on how their installer handled the same area? I may go back and ask them to redo this section if there is a way to...

    I would agree with you. To be clear, my installer provided options, I specifically asked them to remove the emblems and not reapply.

    From what I've observed online, I think it depends on your installer. Some installers seem to cut around the emblems, leaving them intact. Others seem to replace the emblems on top of the PPF. I made a request that my installer leave the emblems off, as I personally like the look better without...
