After getting my Model Y standard, the wheel covers felt like a missed opportunity, especially with it already having geometry but was barely visible.
So I decided to add some contrast to make it pop better, turned out quite nice in my opinion. Now I'm thinking it would be cool if Tesla gave similar color matching wheel covers from the factory.
I’m about to purchase premium juniper spoiler on my standard model Y and see if it works. I have researched that most of the spoiler should work but has anyone done it?
I’ve been looking for aftermarket wheel covers for the Tesla Model Y Standard’s 18” Aperture wheels, and almost all of them have the same problem: they try to mimic sporty alloy wheels with thin spokes, but you can still see the metal spokes of the steel wheel behind them.
Personally, I think it looks pretty bad.
So I made this concept design specifically to solve that problem: spokes/blades wide enough to completely cover the steel wheel underneath, while leaving only the ventilation openings visible.
That way, it actually looks like a complete alloy wheel rather than a wheel cover sitting on top of another visible structure.
I’m genuinely surprised that no manufacturer has released something like this yet for the 18” Aperture wheels.
If anyone here knows a wheel-cover manufacturer, Tesla accessories company, or Chinese supplier who might be interested, please send them this design. I’d buy a set without thinking twice. 😂
Am I the only one bothered by the fact that you can see the metal wheel spokes behind most of the current aftermarket covers?
Good news for Model Y Standard owners: it looks like we can finally install a HEPA filter on the Standard version.

Nice upgrade for those of us who wanted the better air filtration available on the higher trims.
Has anyone here already installed one? Any noticeable difference in air quality or airflow?
I am planning to get the Model Y standard and the premium is just out of my budget range. I travel every week approx. 500km one way and I'm concerned that in -30C winters, the range drop will cause issues. Especially if I've parked the car outside and using level 1 charging.
Is my concern valid. Any data from others would help me decide.
I really want to add ambient lighting to my dash like the premiums have, has anyone found some that look like this photo of the premium? I’m going for that exact look.
I’m a little frustrated after my service appointment. I posted a few weeks ago about a dirty radiator and got a lot of good advice. I couldn’t get it quite clean so I took it in for a cleaning. An hour later I got a call that the fan was “too backed up” and wouldn’t work so I assumed something was wrong with the radiator. Looking at the notes after paying it looks like the issue was that it was too dirty. It’s a little frustrating that I spent $900 on a new radiator because their method of cleaning is just air which wouldn’t get it clean. I feel lied to as well since they specifically said the fan wouldn’t work or work well. Had I known I probably would have invested in the tools to remove it and clean it with water rather than spending $900.
Just curious if anyone else has been through something similar? Thanks!
Last time was a horse, this time is a big dog.
I thought I saw the release note but I can’t find what they actually updated.
