O wow man, it's cool bro', but what does like pinstriping cost?

I wonder how this will impact resale value down the road? Or not?

My concern is that proper PPF installation requires a high degree of skill, but it's going to be done at the Service Centres.

I should throw them a curve ball and get my 2023 Model Y with parking sensors (USS) at them to get wrapped. I assume that is why they have the 2023+ requirement since they newer ones dont have them.

But serious, this seems like the "hint" that this is made for the Cybertruck and this is just testing the waters to let people know there will be an option to make they CT a little more colorful if they want.

Why is Tesla offering only as aftermarket? Seems to me they could make make it easier for consumers make more money offering it upon purchase and then include the cost in the overall vehicle price when leased or purchased via loan?

It will push above the $7500 price limit if it's done with the purchase.

Makes sense though would love the option for those that don’t qualify!!

I keep thinking of all the traditional dealership facilities about to come on the market as ICE centric businesses contract.

Doing wraps is a nice business until robo taxi space is needed. YMMV

Tesla provides training for installation of these.

Can't imagine it would impact resale value if at all. It's basically just a wrap so you can peel it off if you wanted to.

I'd guess the aftermarket stipulation is intended to keep cars within the price requirements for eligibility to use the assorted tax benefits/credits.

Is this Tesla's new PPF color option? Funny that it's sitting across a Polestar showroom. Spotted today in the wild while picking up lunch.

Then when you want to trade the car in they will charge you 5k to remove the wrap.

What was the original color? Great price - was it done at a good shop locally? If so, which one?
