TESLA MODEL Y & 3PROTECTION

ENGINEERED TO PRESERVE.

Tesla paint is notoriously soft, thin, and highly susceptible to rock chips and freeway debris. Protect your Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, or Cybertruck with the highest-rated Clear Bra and Stealth PPF installers serving Riverside, Upland, Corona, and the surrounding Inland Empire.

Deep Decontamination

Even brand new Teslas arrive from the Fremont factory covered in rail dust, industrial fallout, and transport adhesives. We perform a meticulous chemical iron removal, foam bath, and mechanical clay bar treatment to ensure the clear coat is 100% surgically clean before any film touches the car.

Paint Correction Prep

Factory paint is rarely perfect. Teslas frequently suffer from factory DA sanding marks, holograms, and micro-swirls. We perform dedicated paint correction and machine polishing to erase these defects. If you trap a scratch under PPF, it stays there forever. We ensure the canvas is flawless.

Precision Gel Installation

We utilize advanced slip solutions and specialized installation gels that allow us to float the self-healing urethane film perfectly into place. This prevents the 'silvering' (adhesive distortion) and stretch marks commonly seen in rushed, low-quality installations.

Advanced Edge Wrapping

Cheap shops use unmodified pre-cut kits that leave a visible 1/8th-inch gap of exposed paint along every panel edge. At CDA Auto Styling, we use modified digital templates that extend the film, allowing us to roll and tuck the edges behind the panels for a truly invisible, seamless installation.

FULL FRONT VS.
FULL BODY

Determining the right coverage depends on your budget, driving habits, and long-term goals for the vehicle. We offer tailored packages to suit every Tesla owner.

Razor Blade Damage

Inexperienced installers often cut the film directly on the car's paint, scoring the clear coat deep into the base color. You won't see this damage until the film is removed years later, at which point the entire panel requires repainting.

Yellowing & Peeling

Low-tier, unbranded films lack advanced UV inhibitors. Under the intense Southern California sun, cheap PPF will rapidly oxidize, turning a hideous yellow hue and peeling at the edges within 12 to 18 months.

Exposed Seams & Dirt Lines

Budget shops use standard pre-cut kits without wrapping edges to save time. This leaves a visible line of exposed paint that acts as a ledge, trapping dirt, wax, and grime, creating an ugly black outline around every panel of your white Tesla.

Massive Flat Panels

The Model 3 and Model Y have incredibly large, flat hoods. While this might seem easier than wrapping a curvy sports car, large flat areas are actually the hardest to install perfectly without trapping dust, silvering the adhesive, or leaving visible stretch marks.

Camera Integrations

Tesla's Autopilot relies on flush-mounted fender and pillar cameras. Poorly cut PPF will obstruct these lenses or leave ugly visible seams. We use modified templates to perfectly tuck the film around every camera housing without interfering with the sensors.

Panel Gap Variations

It is well known that Tesla factory panel gaps can be inconsistent. A standard pre-cut PPF kit assumes perfect factory alignment. Our technicians manually adjust tension and edge wrapping techniques to compensate for uneven gaps, ensuring a uniform, protected finish regardless of factory variances.
