    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    Here The Tesla T is actually a 56mm sticker that perfectly covers the original Rimetrix center caps. From the reviews, it seems the stickers come off, in prolonged high temps. My thinking was if I used adhesive promoter they might have a better chance of staying on there. Even if the stickers...

    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    The EV wraps vinyl is not an easy project, but it's the cheapest option, and looks pretty good. The Laminars are expensive, for what they are, but are super easy to just pop on and take off. Also, the Laminars fully cover the alloy wheel which is crucial in attaining the right look.

    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    Amazon. Like ten bucks. I put adhesive promoter on the Rimetrix center cap before placing on the Tesla T cap covers. We'll see how they hold up over the coming months.

    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    Got around to washing the car today and threw on the Laminars (with Tesla T center cap covers to finish off the look). The photos really don't do it justice, as they look way better in person, and the alloy wheel underneath isn't as noticeable. I'm liking the look, and it's definitely nice to...

    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    Check out this other post for more pics. I'll post my own photos eventually just not sure when. I have yet to put the Laminars on my car. I want to wash the car first and that only happens every few weeks. Sad but true.

    Ohhhh, my bad. Actually, I wrapped it myself in vinyl. It's the "matrix black" dash wrap from Abstract Ocean.

    Haha, yah I picked up the screen swivel mount. It's from Hansshow but I bought it off Amazon. I had a swivel mount on my Model 3 and really liked it (makes the driving experience better in my opinion). The mount I got for the Y is even cooler though because it swivels in all directions. It was...

    Are you speaking of the rear light at the bottom? If so I got it here. Cheapest you're going to find it and works great.

    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    The other thing that's great about the Rimetrix Laminars is that they cover the entire Gemini silver alloy wheel. I don't like the look of that silver band left after wrapping the wheel covers only. I chose to PlastiDip the silver ring in black and it worked out pretty well. I will be receiving...

    EV Wraps Vinyl vs. Rimetrix Laminars

    Currently, I have the Gemini Wheel Covers on, wrapped with the EV Wraps Vinyl. It took like 3 or 4 hours to wrap the covers and they've held up pretty well over the last 5 or so months. I did use Plastidip on the Gemini wheels to conceal the silver ring and have everything blend together more...

    What did you name your Tesla?

    I had to go with "Storm Shadow"... my favorite character from the classic 80s cartoon, G.I.Joe. I'm removing the Tesla T and replacing it with the Cobra symbol. I even went a step further, to go all in, and got my first vanity plate in my 25+ years of driving (see images below). Why not, right?! :D

    Nice frunk/trunk organizer option

    I guess the Model 3 and Y have different frunk dimensions. I've only used this in my 2021 Model Y and it fits perfect.

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    I’m definitely not a vinyl expert but it came out pretty good. I like that I still get the most range with a bit more aggressive look. I would say if you don’t demand perfection then it could be a job worth tackling. Take care.

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Glad to help! I vinyl wrapped the standard hubcap with pre-cut satin black strips from “EV Wraps”. Cost about $60 so totally worth it. However, it’s quite labor intensive. Took me about 45 minutes to an hour per wheel. And having a bit of vinyl wrapping experience definitely helps.

    I had some extra satin black vinyl so I cut and wrapped the lower lip myself. The eyebrows for the headlights are from Abstract Ocean. The fog light covers are matte black plastic and were found online.

    Yah, I was going to use the two OEM black screws myself but there were a couple screws that came with the Rplate that worked for me. I think it looks so clean! And I'm having a good time changing up the sayings at the bottom. Haha. Good times! 😁

    Abstract Ocean Vinyl Wrap

    I literally just finished my Model Y dash wrap, in Matrix Black from Abstract Ocean, less than an hour ago. This was the extra one lying around from when I wrapped my Model 3 years ago. By far the way to do it is to take off the dash piece (super easy) and wrap it that way. I’ve wrapped a bunch...

    Hair dryer or heat gun and floss or fishing wire should do the trick (slow and steady, pulling away from the car) but reapplying the letters might be difficult. You’ll need to use some sort of mounting tape and that could be an arduous task.

    Reviver Plate Discount

    Yah, for over $1,000 all in I wasn't a player. At $275, I pulled the trigger right away! Just installed it today and it was pretty simple except for the fact that the mounting tape didn't hold the lower end of the bracket to the car; kept coming detached. I replaced the included mounting tape...

    The very first piece I put on I had to take off and throw away. Haha. I tried again and it started to get easier after a few pieces. I guess there is some skill involved, with the heating and stretching, especially if you have little or no experience with vinyl wrapping. You just have to know...

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Yah, the Rimetrix would be a much easier option, as far as install is concerned, but I still didn’t want to spend over $300 for hubcaps. It cost $60 to go the EV Wraps route. I also purchased two cans of black Plastidip for $15 to spray the outside rim of the wheels (since I hate the silver ring...

    Wrapped the stock hubcaps in satin black (EV Wraps) and it definitely makes a difference; bit more aggressive.

    $1,000 to powdercoat a set of wheels?

    As another option, that is less of a hit to the wallet, I decided to go with EV Wraps to change up the look of the standard silver hubcaps. I didn't want to powder coat the Geminis but at the same time was looking for a bit more aggressive look. I'm not sure it's for everyone, and it's very...

    Tesmanian Model Y spoiler matte black

    Sorry for the late reply. It's matte black. It's holding up real well and I'm taking it as a blessing in disguise. I think it looks really nice. Let's just say I was less than happy when I saw that scratch but all good in the end. :)

    Model Y Auto Pilot Nearly Unusable

    I've been driving my Model Y (June 2021 build) for roughly seven weeks now and I'm finding the auto pilot nearly unusable. The braking is so overly aggressive that it basically catapults me forward constantly. It will go from 65 down to 40 suddenly and simply does not ease into braking...

    Tesmanian Model Y spoiler matte black

    Wasn't planning on placing a spoiler on the car but my wife opened the trunk while in the garage... oops. It happens, but I hadn't even put 1,000 miles on it yet so was hopeful the Tesmanian matte black spoiler might conceal the damage. Hypothesis proven correct! WooHoo! Haha. I actually kind of...

    Nice frunk/trunk organizer option

    No, you didn't miss anything. That's the correct link but it seems the dimensions are wrong in the Amazon description. If you look at the pictures the 23.43 x 14.17 x 10.43 is displayed for the blue and black organizer. For the grey, the dimensions are listed as 21 x 16 x 10. I can confirm...

    Are rear mud flaps really necessary?

    I drank the kool-aid and got the mud flaps (front and rear) even though I wasn’t in love with the look; wanted to protect the car. I’ve only put about 350 miles on my car thus far and just blew out the passenger right tire yesterday. I want to blame it on a ricochet, from the small piece of...

    Do you only put the trunk shade on in certain situations or do you have it on all the time now that it’s summer and hot? Also, do you have the trunk glass tinted or no? Thanks!
