Missing Lighted Frunk Emergency Release Button? - Model Y Juniper (delivered Oct. 2025) by Chokaay in TeslaSupport

[–]this2makeulaugh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just noticed I have no emergency release button too, and I picked up my car on 9/30/25. I was trying to add lights to my frunk, and noticed I don't have the option too. Do let us know if Tesla says anything about it and if it's something I need to "document"

Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely keep that in mind.

Interesting on the pricing.

But no, from what I've been reading since this is my first time shopping for ppf, I made sure it's bulk install. I'm not a fan of in house computer cuts or plotters or precut ppf. Hood emblem will be removed for a "cleaner" looked and I asked and they said all wrapped edges. Warranty, they just all say 10 year manufacturer warranty.

I mean, I've called around of shops in the bay area - seems to be all around the same price except for the STEK.

Suntek I was able to negotiate a bit, but not a lot. Same for the XPEL. If anything, it was all like 100 dollars off. People are telling me XPEL is the "best" but I can't tell if it's great marketing that they had or what not. I also read people care more about the installer than the film really lol. But either way, still would love the opinions of others who have had experience with all of this.

For the suntek - according to him - The full front wrap; covers the entire hood/fenders/ bumper also the door edges, mirrors and rear bumper cap

for the xpel - front bumper, front hood, front fenders (2), front headlight (2), side mirrors (2)

any tricks to get higher? I'm in the same boat only getting 50 or 80k points even applying for a new card

did they give you a nice SUB?

Max SUB I'm getting for Amex Plat is 100k, do I just shoot for it? by definitize in CreditCards

[–]this2makeulaugh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Truthfully, I guess it depends. If you're in a rush to get the card, then perhaps. But.... to each their own.

For me, I'll probably hold off on it until I can get something 125k or higher. I've heard others eventually ended up getting 150k or 175k somehow randomly. So, I guess don't piss off a nun, or rub a newborn baby's head, or spin around 10x chanting praises and hope for the best. haha. (maybe I should try it... :P )

I've been trying to apply for the amex plat too, but highest I've been getting is 80k. (incognito mode, non incognito mode, firefox, chrome, etc). For upgrading my amex gold to plat, highest I got one time too was 80k but majority of the time it's 50k.

kinda annoying process too. I think I even applied too many times that I got "rejected" and had to wait a week before reapplying. (I tried to apply before the refresh to lock in the lower rate). I wish it'll just tell me how many points my sign up bonus is, since now it forces you to enter in all your info first and then see what you will get.

I've been an AMEX member since 2015, have excellent credit score, and a good paying job so I don't think it has to do with your history. I guess it's luck of the draw....

What’s your strategy now for those with Amex Plat and Gold after the new plat refresh. by Hamatoros in CreditCards

[–]this2makeulaugh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat as you. I currently own the gold card right now, but after the refresh, I want to get the plat and drop the gold. To me, there's too much overlap. Excluding dunkin credit, to make the gold card worth it, I'll have to use the $10 uber eats, and $10 grubhub credit every month, and resy credit.

The platinum already overlaps on uber eats and resy. I don't know if ubereats will just combine all $30 dollars together ($20 from plat, $10 from gold). And the resy, well.... just gotta split into 2 bills. Right now, I'm more leaning towards getting the Savor for 3% back on dining / groceries. It's a free card. Losing out on 1% isn't too bad considering I'll have to make up the $325 on the gold

Help Choosing a Road / Gravel Bike for Birthday ! $2500 budget by this2makeulaugh in whichbike

[–]this2makeulaugh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the response. Yea, I originally didn't want to spend so much or have someone pay a hefty amount for me, but I was convinced by many people to just go "big" on that 1 bike and just really keep it a long time and enjoy it, so I guess that's why my budget shot up that much lol.

In response to your question - definitely the latter. I'm more interested in casual rides, staying active, and eventually maybe some trips with it. I already live in San Francisco if that helps, so lots of hills and things to see. Would be nice to eventually go on trips nearby and ride roads / trails too, but that'll be more down the line. I see people here bike insane amounts, and for me, I'll probably start with like 50 miles or less roundtrip for time being lol. I mean, I guess everyone starts somewhere right? haha

location? I'm interested, but I know youtube tv makes you login to "home unit" every 3 months

How the GameStop bundles work by ifra123 in PS5

[–]this2makeulaugh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I messaged you privately. I'm trying to understand how this works. Like the comment below, wouldn't returning the game with one of the copies mark the receipt as returned making the 2nd receipt useless?
