What every Tesla needs, and what it costs in Davie
More Teslas come through our bay than any other brand, most of them within their first month of ownership. The reasons are practical. Tesla paint is thin and marks easily, the front bumper and the leading edge of the hood sit low and take the stone off I-595 and the Turnpike, and the glass roof and big side windows turn the cabin into a greenhouse in a South Florida summer. Film on the front end, a Ceramic Pro coating over the paint and ceramic tint on the glass are the three things a Tesla owner here ends up wanting, usually in that order.
The shop is at 5150 SW 48th Way, Unit 614 in Davie, next to the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel, a short run from the Tesla store on Federal Highway in Fort Lauderdale and from the Miami Gardens delivery center. Every model has its own page below, and every price on this page unlocks for your exact car once you pick it in the instant quote.
Getting a brand-new car? Come straight to us.
The right time to protect a car is before its first wash, its first rain and its first run down I-595: no chip to fill, no swirl to polish out, no contamination to pull off the paint before the film goes on. Every week the car spends bare is a week of sand, love bugs and pressure-wash marks that have to be corrected first.
Some customers schedule the delivery of the car straight to our shop: the salesperson hands it over in Davie, next to the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel, the car rolls into the bay without a mile on the road, and it leaves with PPF, coating and tint on before the first drive.
Tesla paint is soft enough to mark in the first month, and a repainted bumper or hood stays on the record: every resale or trade-in inspection measures paint thickness, and a repainted panel takes more off the value than the repaint cost.
- Book before delivery, we hold the slot for the day the car arrives
- Delivery mileage only: no wash marks, no chips, no swirls to correct first
- Film, coating and tint in one visit, so the car goes home finished
Full Front PPF from $1,999 with a Ceramic Pro Sport coating on the entire car included, and 0% financing for 12 months on every service.

We are not the lowest quote in South Florida, and that is on purpose. The price for your Tesla is published by size before anything starts and there is no fee added at pickup. Every film job includes the wash, the clay and iron decontamination, light paint correction where the paint needs it, wrapped edges wherever the panel allows, and a car that stays indoors from drop-off to pickup. A quote that beats it by a few hundred dollars is leaving one of those out.
Budget film coming off a door after a few Florida summers.Budget film usually has no anti-yellowing top coat and no registered warranty: two or three Florida summers and it yellows, stains and goes hard on the paint.
Paint protection film has to last at least ten years and stay clear the whole time. That is what your Tesla gets here: Urban with a 10-year warranty or Ceramic Pro PPF with a lifetime warranty, registered in your name, with the job reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX.
The worst case is the common one: a few years from now you pay to have a protection removed that looked cheap today and was supposed to last a decade, and you find the paint marked underneath. The cheap film cost twice.
What a cheap film job looks like
Six things we find when a car comes in to have someone else’s film taken off.
The blade this close to the paint is exactly where the damage happens. Our film is plotter-cut from your model's pattern before it touches the car; any relief cut around a badge is made on the film, never on the clear coat. Photo: Elite Premium Detailing (from our installation footage)Blade cuts in the paint
The film is trimmed on the car with the blade riding on the clear coat. Every cut line is a scratch you find the day the film comes off. Ours is cut off the car, from the pattern for your exact model, so the blade never runs on the paint.
Dust and bubbles under the film by the grille, seam starting to lift. Photo: CHB74 via RennlistDirt and bubbles under the film
Dust, lint and trapped water sealed under the film in an open bay show up in the first week of Florida sun. Ours goes on after the decontamination wash, in a closed, climate-controlled bay.
Rear bumper film lifting at the edge. Photo: COLT601 via RennlistSeams and lifting edges
Relief cuts across the middle of a panel, edges stopped short of the panel edge, corners that lift at the first pressure wash. We wrap the edges wherever the panel allows and keep seams where the eye does not go.
Old film coming off a Porsche hood: yellow and brittle after a few years.Film that yellows and stains
Unbranded film with no top coat turns yellow and holds bug and sap marks. Urban carries a 10-year warranty and Ceramic Pro PPF a lifetime warranty on the original factory paint, both registered in your name. Stains are maintenance, not a defect, which is why Full Front comes with a Ceramic Pro Sport coating on the entire car.
Film lifting around the parking sensor. Photo: scooter100 via RennlistFilm over sensors and cameras
Film laid over a parking sensor, a radar cover or a camera lens, or a bumper refitted a few millimeters off, and the driver aids start throwing warnings. Every sensor, camera and radar cover on your model is worked around, never covered.
Every Ceramic Pro coating and film we install is reported to the vehicle's CARFAX.No registered warranty
A “lifetime warranty” typed on an invoice is worth what that shop is worth next year. Ours is the manufacturer’s, registered in your name, and the Ceramic Pro work is reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX.

On a Tesla
- Tesla paint is soft and thin at the front bumper and the hood edge; a blade trim on the car leaves a mark you will see the day the film comes off.
- Model 3, Model Y, Model S and Model X carry cameras in the fenders and the front bumper and ultrasonic sensors around the nose: the film goes around every lens and sensor, never over it.
- The lower bumper has tight radii around the vents; an edge cut short there lifts at the first wash, so the edges are wrapped.
Ceramic coating: what the word does not tell you
What the word hides
- “Ceramic coating” is not a regulated term. Any product with some SiO2 in it can carry the name, even in a trace amount, with no proven durability test, even when it is a sealant in practice.
- There is a wide gap between a true professional coating and the spray coatings and DIY kits sold with the same words on the label.
- The cheapest quote may be applying a coating bought online, or a DIY kit, and charging for it as professional work. You cannot tell from the gloss on delivery day.
- What separates them is chemical resistance, thickness, durability measured in years and a warranty registered in your name.
What Elite Dealer means
Elite Dealer is the highest level in the Ceramic Pro dealer program. The professional Ceramic Pro coatings (Sport, Bronze, Silver, Gold, ION and Ultimate ION) are not sold to the public or on marketplaces, only through trained, certified installers. Every application here is registered in your name and reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX, with the warranty of the package you chose: Bronze 2 years, Silver 5, Gold and Ultimate ION lifetime.
One stop shop
PPF, Ceramic Pro and KAVACA Ultimate IR tint go on the same car, in the same visit, on one schedule, in our bay in Davie next to the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel. Full Front PPF from $1,999 with a Ceramic Pro Sport coating on the entire car included, ceramic tint at $99 per window, Ceramic Pro packages from $549, and 0% financing for 12 months on every service. The full package is priced as a package: build it in the Instant quote above and the number you see is the number at the counter.
Build my package →Registered warranty
Elite Premium Detailing is a Ceramic Pro Elite Dealer with a 5-star record. Every Ceramic Pro coating and Ceramic Pro PPF job is registered in your name and reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX with the date, the product and the installer. Because the film and coating are documented on the vehicle's CARFAX, the reinstallation can be included in an insurance repair after a collision. Terms are the manufacturer’s: Urban PPF 10 years, Ceramic Pro PPF the lifetime of the original factory paint, Ceramic Pro coatings by package (Bronze 2 years, Silver 5, Gold and Ultimate ION lifetime), KAVACA Ultimate IR window film for the life of the vehicle. Staining is not a warranty item on any film, ours included, which is why the coating goes over it.

Model Y
Full Front PPF + Ceramic Pro: Full Front PPF from $1,999, Ceramic Pro Sport on the whole car included
The best-selling car in the bay. Low bumper, wide hood and a paint that shows a chip at the first Turnpike run; Full Front film covers the hood edge to edge and the Sport coating that comes with it protects the rest. The lower doors take the sand on the Y (the rocker itself is plastic).
Price my Model Y →Model 3
Full Front PPF + tint: Full Front PPF from $1,999, Ceramic Pro Sport on the whole car included
Same paint, lower ride height and a painted rocker that catches everything the front tires throw. Full Front plus rockers is the honest spec for a daily driver on I-95; the glass roof makes ceramic tint the second job.
Price my Model 3 →Model S
Full Body PPF + Ceramic Pro Gold: Full Body PPF from $5,550
The long hood and the wide rear haunches are the panels that show every mark on a Plaid. Owners who keep the car go full body; the rest go Track Package with a Gold coating over the whole car.
Price my Model S →Model X
Full Front PPF + Ceramic Pro: Full Front PPF from $2,299, Ceramic Pro Sport on the whole car included
A big, tall front end and falcon doors that are awkward to polish later, so protecting the paint now is cheaper than correcting it in three years. Large size in our matrix.
Price my Model X →Cybertruck
Color change wrap or colored PPF: Color change wrap from $3,950
No paint to protect, but bare stainless shows fingerprints, streaks and small scratches, and most owners want a color. A wrap from $3,950 or colored PPF gives the truck a finish that rinses clean and can be removed later.
