Color Covers Update!

Time for my monthly status ask? ?

Here's the status update!

We ordered our first several rolls of magnetic vinyl sheeting a couple of days ago. Our first batch of covers will be produced in matte white and marketed as a partial cover kit (a protective bra) for the frunk area of the Cybertruck to protect against rock chips and bug splatters.

The white color might not appeal to everyone at first, but we may dress it up with optional CyberBeast, Foundation Series logos, and a custom graphics option for your business logo on our first run of matte white frontal protective covers.

After we configure the magnetic panels for the rest of the vehicle, we will begin to offer the complete coverage kits and additional colors.

Funding from the sales of these items will help us bring the more custom, cool color options. The next run should be a matte or satin black. More exotic colors will be a little later down the road, as we have to order the materials in large quantities of each color, so it's a gradual and costly process, making it difficult to quickly bring everything to market at once.

In the end, we expect to pull this cool project off as promised!

Looking forward to seeing a full black kit on a demo truck (at least on line) and available for purchase. Ball park est timeframe on that? Remember I am a Tesla fan and owner so I won't hold you to it

I’ve thought about this as well. But the stainless edges being visible are going to be a concern/turnoff for a lot of customers

Things they have said elsewhere in this thread seem to indicate they have this covered (pun intended). However, I am with you in that, while I love the concept, I am anxiously awaiting to see what the actual product looks like in reality. I am optimistically skeptical.

 

[Cyberbully]

I see. I hope it’s not some U channel moulding/trim that’s going to cover the edges and act as “clips” . We will see!

I don’t see the partial cover kit(protective bra) on the website. Am i missing something?

Not to rush things, want you guys to get it wright the first time so what it s realistic time frame(somethings go well other things don’t)?

I would encourage a robust set of edging possibly a one piece that goes completely around whichever rectangle is being covered (secures at the ends or is semi stretchable to secure itself) and is either very clear or colored the same as the cover. I can envision the edging being something that is replaced every 5 to 10 years.
