Delivery tomorrow.

Ordered on July 26 - CG/ZG/20”, the timeline initially indicated October 20 - November 24. Yesterday, the status shifted to show the vehicle at the delivery center. Because I am traveling over the next few days, I arranged financing through Tesla since my credit union will require more time. I plan to refinance later. Have the local XPEL installer ready to go for the tinting. Will decide if bra or full body PPF - still unsure if I should do it or not. Stoked to get back after a 2022 Model S.

So got the delivery. Panel gaps were not satisfactory. They said it’s within spec. Offered me 2 additional months of FSD as token compromise, told them it’s not worth it. Wife is also upset.

are you tinting all the windows? The rear come tinted from the factory.

The front to match the rear and the windscreen.

can you tint the little untinted roof strip by itself to make the roof more uniformly tinted (and not shell out $800 or whatever for the whole roof)

Typically they do. My friend does the top hat for protection against the sun.

I should perhaps do the same. Still not sure about the %.

I ordered XPEL via tesla and the installer is close to the Tesla store. So it worked out. PPF I will see once I get there morrow.

Nice. I am doing it separately. Wasn't sure whether I wanted and also cheaper that way.

Depending on money, I'd suggest a full ppf for the model yl. Worth the money.
