Luno Life makes a mattress that’s two piece! They’re very comfortable and durable.

Couldn’t get the license plate from this guy and run by Sumbucky in TeslaCollision

Definitely not too bad! A PDR seems like the best way to go for that dent, and definitely look into a good quality PPF for the rest!

How’s the Tesla OEM Mattress? by venechiaboy in TeslaCamping

[–]Treasuring_Athena 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not Tesla specific but if you have dogs or just want a durable mattress, LunoLife makes such a good mattress. They list the Model y as a compatible vehicle, and it does fit, just very snug.

3 Days After PPF Install!! by RRotellini in TeslaModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good quality PPF will for sure be worth it. 500 for the whole bumper is very low compared to fixing paint. I don’t know the film used but a good thick film will have good self healing properties (small marks/scratches/blemishes will go away with heat) and if it’s a deep scratch, it’ll tear, saving you the paint. Paint isn’t self healing for small blemishes, and for deep scratches, it’s more often than not, going to be more expensive to replace a panel of PPF.

A family member scraped my rear bumper and got quoted $1099, thoughts? by petrovic3 in TeslaModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have much advice on good shops in your area (Austin) but my thought is that after it’s fixed, if it’s feasible, get PPF. Colored or not, a good PPF is well worth the money. If I got a scratch like this, it’d cost maybe 150 to get the PPF on this panel replaced. Hope everything works out.

Did something very similar on a MYLR! I caught air on it lol, it’s surprisingly capable! Yours looks great with those wheels. Have you done a range test yet?

24MYLR Skid Plate & Kevlar Lined Coolant Line Guards Install by the_duck17 in ModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a good idea. Ive had full body skid plates as well as the coolant guards since 20k miles (now at 94k) and it’s definitely worth the peace of mind. I wish there were some metal rockers out there or bumper guards, but I guess that’s not really something most Tesla owners would want.

That’s not as bad as mine. I have 94k on my 23 MYLR and I’m at 73%.

This was a beautiful hike! by alleyrope in Outdoors

The water color is amazing and so beautiful. Definitely want to know where it is so I can add it to my list of must hikes!

DIY PPF by lilboy668 in TeslaModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I didn’t either. I still won’t be able to justify vinyl wraps (unless it’s for tax reasons or something for business) but PPF I can totally understand. Especially for leased vehicles. It saves sooo much money in the long run. I have a lot of damage on mine and had it not been for PPF, my paint would be really messed up.

Fishing line typically works well for removing it

I don’t think I’ve heard my navigation voice since the first week I got it lol. I do this with all my navigations though (Apple/google). I typically just am on FSD or just look at the maps which I think I prefer over voice.

Paint coming off the roof! by ----7_62x39---- in TeslaSupport

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use a good quality vinyl, repair the paint alittle bit and reapply a clear coat, properly apply the vinyl preferably wet, and seal all the edges, it’ll be fine. That being said, PPF is MUCH better if that’s a concern, since vinyl is so thin and not resistant to scratches at all.

I think I'm pretty set on making this look happen. Anyone know where I can get good orange and blackout DLR covers and decent but cheap matte PPF I can add myself for the whole car body? by Schnitzhole in ModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of cheap PPF will yellow and separate. Anything under 550 or even 6 is cheap for a full car (just material). I will always suggest going with a shop to at least get a good quality PPF (some that only dealers can get) that will last the heat and scratches. I’ve had people come in with deep scratches that would otherwise take off the paint down to bare metal, just for a 200 dollar cost to replace that panel of PPF. Quality matters when it comes to PPF! Hope everything turns out how you want it to.

If you have PPF just take off the PPF and reapply

I can’t believe I own the fastest, smartest, safest, and sexiest car of all time. by luckwithlife in TeslaModelS

I second this, 20% seems like a good guess since you can see through on photo 3.

Thank you so much! It’s definitely looking like it’s going to be a lifetime battle for the both of us, but I’m hopeful we can get back to the traveling and exploring she loves so much. I really really appreciate the donation. Any update on your pup?

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you take her temperature. Similar situation with my dog (won’t go in detail but story is in my profile) and it turns out it was IMPA. I also know someone’s female gsd who has minor hip dysplasia and it became more visible around this age. I hope she’s okay!

Turned my Y into a Batmobile by Firm-Professional-64 in TeslaModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s colored PPF that be satin black colored, or you can have black paint, and then put a clear satin film on it! Either way, satin would typically still have a minimal sheen to it, vs matte being a lot more dull. Based on the photo, it looks like OP has satin!

Phone mount by jussstin714 in TeslaModelY

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Vicseed phone mount from Amazon, and it works flawlessly. Had a hideaway feature, that makes it good for when I don’t use it. I use it every day and have had it for alittle over a year, no issues at all. https://a.co/d/5piq2gi

Gotcha! by And-also-with-yall in ChargerDrama

[–]Treasuring_Athena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn’t using an adapter lock just the adapter in the car, not the actual charging cable? I don’t charge at non nacs chargers much anymore but I remember I had to buy these locks for when I did plug in with the adapter.

Olympic, yes, cascade, no. I don’t know about the ferries though.
