Tesla Model 3 / Model Y Center Console Wrap (Gen 2.0, Matrix Black)

Surface texture feels great and the overall product looks amazing. Instillation is not easy though if want to achieve anywhere close to perfection. I am pretty good at putting glass phone protector on, etc., but this is more challenging.Please watch the instruction videos at least 3 times. The order to put it on is important, from the bottom or from the top, etc. The middle console section with cup holders is the most difficult one IMO. Take your time and aim it right at the first try.The alignment is crucial. If it's off from the beginning, the gap will grow too big to be ignored at the end. So do fold the backing and start slow.Hand pressing will make it look nice and even.DO NOT try to stretch it. Simply lay it down and gently press by hand. Stretching will make the alignment totally off.Once you start using the squeegee, bubbles will appear although they were not there when hand pressed. Therefore, do not tuck in the edges until you rid of all the bubbles; otherwise, the bubble will be trapped inside with bugling spots.The angle and space inside the car make it even more difficult. Bring enough lighting and lots of alcohol wipes to work on this. You hand will sweat; dust will settle once you start.There is no instruction for the very top horizontal piece; it only says DO it first. My advice is to use a scissor to carefully trim off excess backing otherwise you won't be able to align it by pushing all the way in; the backing borders will block it from alignment. With the backing trimmed off, you can align it nicely from the left and peel towards the right.I still got a bubble in the middle piece because the edge was folded already. So I had to use a heat gun to ease it off. It's acceptable now. Perfection is no longer my goal. Be extremely careful if yo had to use a heat gun in that area.If you attempt to peel the whole thing off and re-start, forget it. It will become totally useless.

These came nicely packaged with a plastic squeegee, an additional plastic piece, and instructions. I've never wrapped anything before and I'm generally bad at sticker placement, so I was definitely expecting to mess up the first one.Well, here's how that went:Something I wasn't expecting with this was the excellent instructions that were included. They were specific to my car, and not some bad translation so they were easy to understand. I did the console cover first, which was easy, and went on without any issues. It looks great, just about factory finish (I mess up slightly but it's not noticeable). I did the cup holder next, and as the instructions warned this was tricky to get right. A few attempts later I thought I had it, but after installation, there's a crease I can't get rid of. The company says they provide a free replacement wrap once, so I ordered one, and it was quick and easy with free shipping.Overall, I'd say this was definitely worth the slightly higher cost, and I'll be purchasing any additional wraps for the car from this brand.I chose Matrix black, and it looks great!

Love the way the console looks now! It is actually a vinyl wrap and not the hard shell cases. I wanted the wrap to reduce the extra bulk that hard shell cases have, but I understand shell cases are probably easier to install. I started with the top small piece to get a feel for installation and if I messed up, it wouldn't be noticeable anyway. The material has a little bit of give to it, which is helpful when peeling/lifting edges to let bubbles escape. On one of the larger pieces, I got a bubble trapped that wouldn't squeegee out and I kind of stretched the wrap trying to push the bubble out. So I decided to lift the edge up to the bubble and squeegee horizontally and it was fine. It didn't ruin the whole sheet.The pattern is great... its not too harsh or contrasting or showy but it gives the console subtle texture and it's more forgiving than installing a flat matte wrap. I think a flat matte would've definitely required more perfection.

Agreed with all the positive reviews on here and would definitely recommend buying these. This is a must-have kind of accessory for your Model 3. The stock gloss black plastic will get smudged just from looking at it and although i haven't scratched mine yet, i can see that being a major issue over time with the stock materials. I got the matrix black finish and it is a nice finish that is really more of a dark gray that matches well with the rest of the interior.As far as the installation goes, I did some door handle wraps previously (which were flat which makes them easy) but these are a bit trickier to get right. You can do it and it isn't hard if you just take your time. The installation video was super helpful and I would recommend watching it while you do it.It took me about 30 min to get all three installed and they look and feel great with no bubbles. The cut of these is a perfect match to each of the center console pieces and there's no exposed edges when you put it on correctly. The pieces actually wrap around the edges of each panel so there's no visible seams showing which looks great but requires a steady hand and some patience to make sure it all lines up. Just make sure you keep with the instructions in the video and take your time and they will come out looking awesome.
