The 4 Most Popular Tesla Upgrades
Tesla owners! Whether you are thinking about adding some tint to your windows and protection to your Model 3’s interior and paint, or just a bit of customisation to really make it your own, here is the guide for you.
We’ve tinted and protected thousands of Teslas for their fastidious owners. So, we’ve broken down the 4 Most Popular Tesla Upgrades for you.
Here are the most common things new owners like to do to their Teslas:
- Window Tinting
- Paint Protection Film
- Ceramic Paint Coating
- Interior Protection
Let’s take a look at each of these and why you should consider Tint Haus to care for and protect your Tesla.
#1 Get Your Model 3 Windows Tinted
Why Consider Window Tinting For Your Tesla?
Model 3 Teslas have a beautiful minimalist modern look – which is partly achieved by curving front and rear panoramic screens that curve up into the roof.
Unfortunately, this glass expanse is less enjoyable in the Australian climate. With temperatures regularly in the high 30s and 40s, your car needs as much protection from the sun as possible.
This is why one of the most commonly requested upgrades is our Premium Ceramic Film which reduces 87% of Infrared Red heat transmission along with 62% of Total Solar Energy, resulting in a significant and noticeable reduction in cabin cooling temperatures.

Tesla Model 3 Window Tinting Risks
There is an inherent risk associated with tinting the panoramic rear screen on Tesla Model 3s.
The rear screen on your vehicle extends into the panoramic roof in all one piece and so the glass in this section is laminated to strengthen the process.
The concern is, there are risks associated with tinting laminated glass as tinting this type of glass can cause what is known as thermal stress resulting in cracking.
The tint that we use on the rear window however, is a heat reflective film as opposed to one that absorbs heat. To date, of the thousands of Tesla rear screens we have tinted, not one has cracked.
Tint Haus Window Tint
All Tint Haus window films are manufactured in the United States to the highest industry standards and have undergone testing and certification locally by the Australian Radiation and Nuclear Safety Agency.
All of our options come with a lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling, lifting and discolouration. We have two options for Tesla Window tinting:
High Quality Carbon Film
Our entry-level high-quality carbon film is colour stable and polyester-based, and is guaranteed for life not to fade or discolour. It also does not disrupt radio or cellular transmissions.
The film itself is a deep charcoal black colour making it a good match to factory privacy glass. The film also rejects up to 42% of Total Solar Energy.
Premium Ceramic Film
Our high-end window film is our Premium Ceramic range which again is colour stable, polyester based and black in colour. In addition, our Premium Ceramic film is constructed with a state-of-the-art Nano-Ceramic layer ensuring unparalleled Heat rejection and aesthetics.
Independent tests confirm industry-leading results of 99.9% UV rejection along with a protection factor rating of 500 + (SPF). This ensures your vehicle interior and most importantly you and your family remain protected from the harsh Australian sun whilst driving – an absolute must in Summer.

#2 Add Paint Protection Film (PPF) To Your Tesla
Why Consider Paint Protection Film For Your Model 3 or Model Y?
Paint Protection Films keep your paint factory-perfect for longer: protecting against fading, chipping, chemical damage from the environment. This is perfect for your Tesla which is likely to be your daily driver.
Some PPF products can even self-heal in sunlight (see below), reducing the visual impact of chipping, scuffing and moderate scratches.
The clean Tesla look is easily marred by minor scrapes, so anything that prevents this is worth considering.
Tint Haus Paint Protection Film
At Tint Haus we have a true understanding of the high expectations of our fastidious customers and deliver the highest quality finish every time.
We use only the finest Paint Protection Films available such as Suntek, Hexis, Premium Shield along with STEK and have direct relationships with the manufacturers.
The films we use are specifically designed for Euro prestige and Supercars and unlike other cheaper films on the market do not yellow or fade over time.
The other advantage of the type of PPF products we use is that they have a self-healing top coat which offers resistance to stone chips, environmental staining, scuffing and light to moderate scratching. The films literally self-heal when exposed to heat such as that from the sun (watch video).
Perfect for when you “over” polish your Tesla or drive a bit too close to that bush!
The Suntek Reaction product has an additional built-in Ceramic Coating layer which reduces contamination and makes cleaning a lot easier. Suntek Reaction comes with a 12-year warranty, while all other products come with a 10-warranty providing coverage against: yellowing, fading, peeling or lifting.
We thoroughly recommend the US manufactured Suntek Reaction PPF for Teslas as the optical clarity and all-round performance is far better than all other films available on the market.
#3 Add Ceramic Paint Protection To Your Model 3
Why Consider Ceramic Paint Coating For Your Model 3?
Whether you bought a Model 3 to reduce your gas bills, save the planet, or just because it is an awesome car, chances are you want to keep it looking great for even longer.
A ceramic coating not only keeps your Model 3’s paint looking fantastic – by reducing UV damage and minimising the impact of abrasive chemicals – it also stays cleaner for longer – reducing the number of car washes required. Read Our Article on Ceramic Paint Protection
Tint Haus Ceramic Paint Coating
The paint product we use, The Tint Haus Diamond Ceramic is manufactured in the UK and has been tested and proven to 10H making it the toughest coating on the market. The Tint Haus Ceramic coating is also resistant to light scratching and scuffs.
The other key benefit of the Tint Haus Ceramic coating is that it comes supplied with a lifetime warranty against damage caused by environmental factors – bird/bat droppings, tree sap, water marks and paint fade/oxidisation.
Before we apply the Ceramic Coat to your Tesla, we ensure that the surface is perfectly prepared with:
- Full pressure wash
- Clay decontamination
- Stage 2 buff paint correction
Then we apply a layered coating on all paint surfaces 3 times, treat your alloy wheels, as well as the Windows and chrome dressings.
Finally, all painted surfaces are cured under IR heat lamps in our state-of-the-art custom-built facilities.
Nothing leaves Tint Haus unless it is perfect.
