Tesla Model 3: Top 5 Cosmetic Mods *all you need*

Here are my Top 5 cosmetic mods to do to ANY Tesla Model 3. Cosmetic mods are any modifications that are done in the hopes of increasing the visual appearance of the car rather than performance aspects.
Table of Contents:
1. Vinyl Wrap (0:55)
A vinyl wrap is awesome because you can go big or small with the color change. In this video, I have a crazy camo wrap but you have unlimited options to do something less bright. Maybe, satin black. A vinyl wrap is the most expensive one on this list running around $1,500-$3,000+ (in my area), but it offers one of the biggest changes for your Tesla. Since vinyl is a thin film over the car, it can offer minor protection for your paint underneath. With my vinyl wrap, I don't worry too much about a slightly dirty towel or washing my car a little more rough than usual.
2. Chrome Delete (1:43)
The chrome delete is one of my favorite cosmetic mods because it changes the Model 3 so much for what it costs. A chrome delete is usually the same vinyl material as a car wrap so it offers the same long-lasting and protective qualities. Personally, my favorite chrome delete color is glossy black or satin black. Both of these options look great on every color for the Model 3.
3. Powder-Coated Wheels (3:23)
Powder coating your wheels is a game-changer. Mostly because the stock Model 3 Aero Wheels and Sport wheels look great when they are powder-coated. This goes right along with chrome delete to finish off a great look for your car. In my opinion, try to match the color of your chrome delete to your powder-coated wheels for a cleaner look.
4. Headlight, taillight, and reflector tint (4:18)
The joy of Tesla's new high tech and bright headlights and taillights is they can shine right through most tints that are put over them. I have a rather dark tint on my lights and reflectors yet the light still shines right though for the most part. Tinting your headlights, taillights, and reflectors is a great way to get a more constant look across the car, and it's very inexpensive!
5. Center Console Wrap (5:31)
Wrapping your center console is a real game-changer. Not only can it look much better, but it offers great protection too. For me, I love having my center console satin white to match the white interior. It's also nice when you rest things on the center console like a metal bottle or keys, you know its not going to scratch it like it would on the stock piano black center console. Once again this is a simple vinyl wrap so the color choices and designs are unlimited! Here's a great center console you may want: amzn.to/3ncEhoe

My black 3 only has a chrome delete done, and I love it. Glad I did that before tints or anything else because most people do tint first

Hi I really loved your wrap on the black Tesla. What kind of wrap is it or is it just custom to your liking, would love to have you’d feedback.

Where did you get the wheel cap for the aero wheels? Haven't seen that one yet.

[@mzjen5323]

Have you ever seen a white model Y with the tinted lights? I’ve seen it on a lot of black cars and I love it but my car is white

[@henne2k]

What about glossy black for the rim covers? 😎👌🏻

[@nlBulllshitnl]

Are those the standard wheels (without aero caps)? If so; What did you put on the middle of your wheels? That looks slick

[@josepina2146]

Bro those are under the wheel cap kits in amazon they are not expensive at all

[@5810psalm]

Which blend mount did you order? I see they only have m3 and mx listed on their website

Omg love your car and so crazy about it but have no idea where to go or what to do for my 3. Please help. Thanks

[@robert5008]

I was thinking of yellow tinted PPF for my headlights. I have a M3 blue in color on order. I'm not sure of how the contrast will look though. I'm a old school 80s guy when yellow head lights were the rage back then.

[@SamsungTVChannel-et9nv]

Hmmm....blue is hard to contrast. That yellow accent will stick out like a sore thumb.

[@waydewonder7026]

Headlight, taillight, and reflector tint is this illegal?and is this allowed in most states and how dark % can you go ?

[@MeezyPeezy]

does tinting the headlights cause a loss in brightness ?

[@raulburgos23]

I see that you have no mud flaps on your 3. What are your thoughts about mud flaps? I’m indecisive about getting them.

[@JerryDLTN]

Have you tired or heard good things about window security film (to help prevent break-ins)?

[@hungfbi69]

What level is your front windshield tint?

[@ting-qb6gg]

i thought tesla does not have chrome anywhere Should you do the tint first or the chrome delete first?

[@JuanGarcia-me6vn]

How dark did you do your Tesla headlights? I want to to get that exact tint on mine

[@kyokushinkai10]

In California, have you gotten any tickets for having the tail lights blacked out? Also, any tickets for driving in the Car Pool Lane without those nasty HOV stickers? lol Thanks! Great Vid

[@shortbus7931]

CA cops won't catch you unless the violation is expensive one. But if you ever get pulled over for any traffic violation, they will start pointing out all the cosmetic violations as a whole package. Driving without HOV sticker is a big no no because it's very strict in CA. Also, you are risking yourself losing front window tint and blacked out tailights.

[@Dshizznit69]

Love the center hub cap thing you have going on. Where did you get it? Could you link?

[@TeslaPhotographer]

Thank you it’s called custom aero wheels

[@jko1854]

Where did you get the center wrap done at? @Tesla photographer

[@xavier0237]

I did mine by myself. Judging by forum posts, most people do it themselves. It's pretty easy. The wraps come precut, so all you have to do is align and apply.

[@wittech6116]

Careful suggesting tinting lights. It’s illegal in a lot of states.

[@youngledoux1]

What spoiler do you have ?

[@paladin3116]

0:17 what type of tint and what percent is that on your headlights? That makes it look mean lol

[@TeslaPhotographer]

I’m not sure the brand but I told them medium dark while my camo car is very dark

[@Cliff001002]

@@TeslaPhotographer do you know what % tint? Love the video and looking to do the same. Don’t want to go too dark though.

[@thebenman8657]

Could you add links to the wrap you did on the center console? Or did you just have a wrap and cut it yourself?

[@TeslaPhotographer]

I actually just cut the center console ourselves at the same show that did the wrap on the car. It’s 3m satin white vinyl though

[@thebenman8657]

When you get taillight tint think about the people who are behind you because some tints make it difficult to see your brake lights another reason why I personally think it should be illegal

[@ArshdeepSingh-oc1oo]

front should be smoked the back is fine as it is in the 3

What's your favorite cosmetic mod?

[@sureshkrjsl]

Suggestion: When you are doing a video on different cosmetic mods of a car, maybe talk less and show more. Or talk while showing different mods.

[@sureshkrjsl]

It was kind of disappointing video. I thought I would get to see a variety of cosmetic mods on different teslas, but it was just one tesla :(

[@slimerone]

Can you include ball park prices for these mods like vinyl wrap or chrome delete, please?

[@TeslaPhotographer]

It’s so different per area really but chrome delete $600, powder coat wheels $500, full wrap $2500, headlight tint front and back $100 and center console $40 USD

[@thegamingtiger8587]

Mine is white body white rims and black interior

[@Proximian]

Some people suggest that the OEM head lamps are critical for Auto Pilot and FSD to work properly due to the fine tunning of the softwares ability to identify objects, especitally at night. So adding tint to the front head lamps could cause some minor issues with your Auto Pilot as the cameras are calibrated based on the stock OEM light brightness.

[@6thDAY]

That black looks so clean with the front T stripped off @0:17 I did the same thing to my red!

[@cheronofan]

Put a AMG badge on mine just to make people laugh

[@johnshera3935]

i wanted to get 50% tint but ended up with 35% because in California cops will give you tickets for anything, even farting while driving probably for emissions

[@scumpuppies]

$1,500 for a wrap?!??! Try that x 4 in any major, metropolitan area in California.

[@MaroonLoto]

So to wrap it up, you gotta wrap it up.

[@ceramicsaustralia5188]

Compared to a 3 series BMW, C Class Mercedes or an Audi A4, the Tesla 3 looks decidedly 2nd rate. Of course it's a fantastic car and it represents the very near future of motoring but I just don't get that feeling of desirability that I get with other cars. The side profile looks awkward as it's too high, the rear is not too bad but the front and most important view is just terrible. The lights are too benign and need to be more aggressive and the overall shape is very uninspiring. Even the Lucid design absolutely tears Tesla a new one.
