No I didn’t because that would be stupid like those dealerships that had them painted to try and sell them back in the early 1980s. Now pretend that the Cybertruck has an awesome stainless steal exterior too…I just don’t understand the wrapping thing.

Agree. But, to each his/her own I guess.

I find the stainless very easy to take care of. Why wrap it and make more work?
Right it’s like painting concrete, brick, or cinder block in that regard.

Just as some choose to name their children John or Michael, some aren’t bothered by seeing carbon copies of their vehicle wherever they go.

exactly. because most plain brick looks terrible.. painted brick looks way better. same with the ct.. a dirty, covered in fingerprints and water spots stainless fridge doesnt look good to me. a bedlined one does.

I would also venture to say… most ‘Tesla people’ are not ‘car people’

And when you liken a car to a boring mobile device…. Well, this is what you get.. a lot of wraps and other cosmetic add-ons which only add weight



AutoZone will soon be out of business…

Like any other surface that you wrap or apply stickers to… there will be a difference to the surface when you uncover it. But what will it take to get it back to original?

I wouldn’t say permanent damage. But still can be a concern.

I wonder if you could get the Foundation badge look after a while of simply adding a decal then removing it… ???

You gonna cry some more? How about letting people do what they want, your acceptance is not required. Cheers!
