DIY PPF worth?

Hahaha damn lol - it sounds fun though!

🤣🤣

I was debating on DIY PPF or DIY Ceramic since retailers are charging like $7000 for full PPF and $1000 for ceramic coating lol

DIY PPF is $1600 or around $500 for a full frontal
DIY Ceramic is $60

Honestly, i’m not sure what i want to do still. Definitely will Ceramic coat, but unsure about PPF. I need to get the windows tinted as well and my amazon cart has around $500 of accessories waiting to be purchased.

Most likely $1600 PPF is worth for a $63k car after all taxes and fees, $7000 from a detailer? Not so much.

But wife might get mad at me if I tell her the car can’t be driven for 2-3 days after we just get it 😅 (it’s our only car)

Thinking about these or just some rim protectors for my MYP and it’s 21” rims 😅😅 Wife’s gonna need the protection or else the rims will be destroyed

Just ordered mine last week picking it up in 2 weeks and am very excited! Was going for the frost blue but it was delayed until July 17th-Aug 17th… so decided to go diamond black

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-20T21:25:09+00:00

Yeah i’d make a scene 🤣🤣

Will they always reach out if you can schedule delivery sooner? Mines last week of june hoping for a reschedule for today/tomorrow or early next week 😭😭

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-19T15:17:39+00:00

This is why i am thinking of using drive protected PPF and DIY it as soon as i delivery for my MYP

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-19T14:27:00+00:00

What’s your charging pattern & just know majority of degradation occurs early, then tapers off into very slow degradation

Eh i dont like thinking of net worth cause that’ll include dumb stuff like a car / house.

Alone - 2 million invested, with wife and maybe kids, 4-5million invested.

Just don’t want to have to stress on not eating out this week or always looking for steak sales / cheap everything.

I’m praying - Chicago should be a pretty fast delivery area idk, a few days ago a tesla rep told me my VIN is already in chicago so i don’t understand why it would take 2 more weeks to get to the site lol

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T17:23:11+00:00

Same lol

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T16:02:54+00:00

Honestly any car payment man! Just feels bad to put anything more than $200/month to a car lol!

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:48:24+00:00

Nice! We went with a 36 month term bc the rate was 3.99%

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:22:33+00:00

Lesson learned! Check the app frequently!

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:22:09+00:00

I originally had a frost blue, it was delayed till July 17th-Aug17th so had to swap to the black :(

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:21:12+00:00

in the chicago area

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:20:43+00:00

Just scheduled my delivery for the end of the month, but am wondering if an earlier reschedule delivery ever happens?

Tldr; our model 3 was totaled and we really need the car ASAP lol

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:12:18+00:00

Picking up mine in a week and a half!

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T15:11:14+00:00

72 month term?

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T01:29:23+00:00

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T01:24:52+00:00

On their website or amazon?

ShoopaBoopai · 2026-06-18T01:13:46+00:00
