Any chance they start delivering Beasts with light bar and aero covers installed? Curious when that cut over will take place. I have a VIN with no date but I don’t imagine I’ll get either when I take delivery.
Most likely, or at least give the purchaser the option.

The fact that it doesn’t come with a cover is disappointing - the blackout tape is a complete afterthought

The blackout tape is not intended to act as a cover. It's their way to get around a legal snafu

Take note. Some states don't allow us to ride on street with off road lights exposed. Know ur state law. Virginia made me remove the word Corvette from windshield. It was above roof.
I had to remove.

I'm sure Tesla will unveil a fancy accessory cover for the lights for $200 that will go out of stock in minutes after launch.

Sadly, no. The light bar with ship with a black out tape over it that only the customer or 3rd party installer is allowed to remove to get around the liability issues that comes with OEM off-road lights. It will not have a setting that is safe for on-road use as it will be up to the customer to accepted the liability by removing the black out tape. :cry:
Too bad Tesla can't default the light to have the 5 amber clearance lights and have it able to switch to white... Then, it might be legal.

So for on-road use, the lightbar needs to be covered as I understand it? Think we will see a quality 3rd party solution for this?

By the post on X from Tesla Project Manager sounds like all FS will receive the bar…
Whether or not it reads that way it won’t happen. If you want it you can pay for it - if you are lucky enough to be waiting at the right moment.

The lightbar showed up for a short time as an orderable item. And it was shown as an included item for the Cyberbeast.
I never saw it. Do you recall what it cost during that short period of time?

That's a cool idea

FS AWD here, I can’t wait for this to be available to order.

Will go a long way to burning up my voucher, haha!!

I know I’ve still got a wait on my hands, as the CB folks need to get theirs first.
But that is only about 1,000, right? Do we know how many Beasts have been sold?
