I'm glad ppl like Thin exist, they're normal Joes and inspire me to take on big projects like this. Thanks for sharing!

So awesome, great savings. I believe 2600 for my full wrap is the most I would pay. If I get a model x someday I will do it myself and save 6k. Thanks Kim

It looks great, I never would have thought to apply wrap yourself. He made it look pretty easy!

I love the color and look with the wrap. I am a dyi guy, but this is a major tedious job that I would hesitate to tackle myself. Kudos to Thinh for getting his car almost completed and it looks like a pro job to say the least.

Wrapping a Tesla is a piece of art. Well done!

I just was behind him on 400 in Buckhead and his work looks great!

Wow, he has some skills....looks really good. I do not have that skill....wish I did, but yeah, mine would be a tragic mess.

Great video as always from u and the gunmetal grey color looks awesome 🔥

Wow that color wrap is so nice. He’s doing pretty good. U just got to be careful with the cutting knife but besides that it’s all good just takes time.

This is awesome...great video! I'm just finishing wrapping my Model 3 (have the front bumper left to do as of 7/14/20). Wrapping a car in this hot Atlanta weather is brutal.

I always get exited when you post a video! Great work! Keep going! I love it! Edit: by the way love the new logo! It’s awsome!

I’ve watched tons of your videos! I’m in the market for a model 3 and your videos have helped me heaps! Definitely subscribing

It looks really nice so he should be very proud of himself and also don't forget to thank the wife.

Thinh has good taste in T-shirts, love back to the future.

He did an awesome job. I looked into a wrap for my model 3 and didn't want to waste the time or money knowing that I'd make mistakes. And the shops prices were outrageous. I had my Audi s4 convertible wrapped for 3500 but they wanted 6000 for my Tesla. Just pure robbery. Decided to plast dip the entire car for about $500. Came out great.

I thought about similar. I bought a 3M sample book and watched youtube videos on how to do it, it's quite doable. Shop prices are a bit outrageous but diy, you could try a wild color. I actually think mirror chrome is pretty striking although not a subtle look :)

Awesome video Kim, Can't wait to get my Model Y delivered...

Great Job on the wrap Thinh!!

That's so cool, exact colors I want to do my coming model 3 performance in

Honestly, I have a hard time putting a screen protector on my phone.. lol.. well done! I would wonder how dust affects the wrap. I had the front of my S clear wrapped up to the front doors and windshiled and love it. I think that the ceramic coating is actually a great diy. as long as you get the car super clean first, it is pretty easy and works great.

When wrapping the sensors, are they cut out individually or just pressed in with a tool?

Kimberly Petras depends how good it’s made actually

Went to a ridge wallet 2 years ago, they are awesome and simplistic!

We have a Preformance Model 3 for our production studio. We want to do a wrap and this may be how we do it...

I'm wrapping my convertible saab 93 purple and black I messed up a little on my first panel but the more I do the better it's getting 😁

Looks rad. Great job.

I absolutely love the colour!

PPF is less forgiving because if you mess up, it’s more noticeable. Any artifacts left behind on the surface before applying PPF will be visible to the naked eye, where as a colored vinyl wrap can hide them.

Awesome video, Kim. I've watched this channel for a long time, read Clean Technica and Elektrek daily, and am now ready to step into the world of Tesla. I recently purchased 5000 shares of TSLA and am hopeful that it gains enough after the 2nd Q earnings announcement to pay for a new Model S for me. Cheers!

I’m definitely doing this

Wow. Very impressive

Very informative. Thanks!

Ridge wallet is awesome! I've been using one for probably a year now.

Big ups to him... and to do it without taking anything apart 😮.... this guy is amazing. Thanks Kim for introducing him to us. I think he may have just found a side job once he gets his completed. I can see people contacting him to help with theirs. :)

I’m about to wrap mine matte (for practice) did you remove the bumpers?

Loved the video! Keep them coming!

I’d like to know more about the methods he used to cut out details in the pieces he’s wrapping like the piece mentioned on the outside over the front tire and the center console around the silver piece that sticks out for you to push it open with.

As an installer, I see multiple problems here. First, he over paid for the material by about $200. Second, the front and rear doors are different because certain shades of vinyl are considered "directional" and should be applied the same way on the whole vehicle. Third, one just doesn't watch some KZread videos and buy some material and then know how to wrap. I've been doing this for years and I'm still learning. Fourth, teslas are cake to wrap.

Looks good. Make a video of the final wrapping.

Well done! The guy has skills for sure.

I'm not overly familiar with the sensor placement on Teslas, but I see small circles around the front of the vehicle that are flush with the body, I simply assumed that those are some of them. Would wrapping your vehicle require you to keep those areas exposed and if so, I'm curious how much they would stand out on a completed wrap? Love the videos BTW.

I've got a paint chip at an edge and some dings already 12mo in to our X. I'm seriously considering a wrap / ceramic + PPF on the front.

A vinyl wrap does not fix or cover body damage and will make it harder to cover. It's important to fix the body damage before applying the wrap or else you will end up having bubbling. Rust can actually cause corrosion over time and cause the wrap to get loose and bubble up and rip. Fix the damage before wrapping.

Wrapper here. The roll of vinyl is directional meaning you have to install the pieces the same direction. Front door is probably horizontal and rear door is vertical.

Oooh. I'm not much of a DIY person, which is weird since I coach a Lego robotics team. But this looks super interesting. I figure if I try it I'll only completely mess up about... hmm... 5 or 6 times at $700 a roll. Maybe not the best idea. haha

Love it -I couldn’t do it myself-

Beautiful.

Wow, it would save a lot of dough to be able to do this yourself, depends on how good you and whether you want it perfect or not. If I tried it I would practice on something else , like a mailbox or something around the house before I made a mess of my Tesla(or any car ) . I think because of the high price of professional labor for PPF and other wrap installers which most people can't afford it would be worth a try at least, not to give any insult or disrespect to those who do it for a living , they do know what they are doing . You were right Kim, his Model X did make for a great video! ( Really hate to see the black covered, it my favorite color for any Tesla lol !)

Vinyl and PPF is not really the same to apply. I'd say PPF is harder as it's thicker and you should not use a heat gun.

I'd love to do this but...I'm just not great at this type of stuff and think it would look terrible lol

Wow...impressive

My local wrap shop is doing my P100D 3M full wrap in satin black, a chrome delete and ceramic coating for $2,950 which as far as I'm concerned is an amazing deal since most wrap shops won't even do the wrap for less than $3,500. I wouldn't dare try to wrap it myself. One little mistake and you have to start from scratch. No thank you.

is there a follow up video of the final project?

Wow. Would love to see this wrap in person. What state is he. Link us up, I would love to wrap my MX.

I chrome deleted my model s and I'm happy with it. I got a rediculas quote. And probably saved over $1,800 doing it myself .I did around windows,directionals,door handles,and chrome strip on back.im happy with it ,and I wasnt worried about how many pieces were used.

Hi Is it possible to get the reference of the wrap he ordered on amazon?

That wrap looks directional to me, the driver side doors reflect light differently so they look like different colors. If I had to guess he changed the orientation because he spread the work out so far that he was doing 1 piece at a time and probably just forgot.

Looks nice. But it seems odd that a PPF job in Georgia would cost 3 times what Bjorn Nyland paid in Norway for PPF exterior and interior plus ceramic.

You save so much money doing it yourself...I'm going to wrap mine in ppf. Just the front bumper, hood and mirrors though, not the entire car. Wish me luck.

Wow, that guy did a great job...Mad skills!! But are the front and rear doors the exact same color? It appears the vinyl may have come from 2 different “dye” lots...
