Short answer
Offshore's Tesla Owner Package bundles non-metallic ceramic window tint, full front PPF cut from Tesla-specific patterns, a full-exterior ceramic coating and windshield protection film, from $2,319 for tint plus front film, from $3,259 for the complete package including the glass roof, and from $6,729 with full-body PPF. Every film used is non-metallic so it does not interfere with the Autopilot cameras behind the glass, and the front side windows stay at Hawaii's 35% or lighter. The full package takes 2 to 3 days at the shop in Wailuku.
Key takeaways
- Only non-metallic ceramic film goes on a Tesla here, because metallic film can interfere with the cameras and sensors that Autopilot relies on.
- Tesla paint is thinner than most factory paint, which makes front PPF a higher priority than on a comparable sedan or SUV.
- The Model 3 and Model Y panoramic glass roof is tinted as part of the full package; it is the largest glass area on the car and the biggest source of cabin heat under Maui sun.
- PPF is cut from patterns specific to each Tesla model, so there is no blade on the paint and no guesswork around the camera housings.
- Three tiers from $2,319, $3,259 and $6,729; the Cybertruck is quoted separately because its stainless body changes what film can do.

How it works
- 01Confirm the model and glass
Model 3, Y, S, X or Cybertruck, the year, the paint color and whether the roof glass is included. Pattern availability for the exact model is checked before you book.
- 02Intake
Panels, glass and camera housings are checked. Any factory film on the glass or prior tint is noted and the front windows are metered, and the paint is clayed before film.
- 03Tint
Non-metallic ceramic film on every pane. The front side glass is set at Hawaii's 35% or lighter, measured through film and glass; the panoramic glass roof is included on the full package.
- 04Paint protection film
Model-specific ProLayers patterns on the hood, fenders, bumper, mirrors and A-pillars, with the front camera and sensor cutouts already in the pattern.
- 05Coating, windshield film, pickup
The coating goes over the film and paint and cures overnight, then the windshield film is installed, the camera zones are inspected and you get the walkthrough and the Hawaii tint certificate.
Side by side
| Typical sedan or SUV | Tesla | |
|---|---|---|
| Paint thickness | Standard factory thickness | Thinner; chips more easily, so front PPF matters more |
| Tint film | Any ceramic or carbon film | Non-metallic ceramic only, to keep the cameras clear |
| Roof glass | Sunroof or none | Full panoramic roof on Model 3 and Y; one large pane to tint |
| Camera zones | One camera behind the windshield | Multiple cameras; precision cuts are required around each zone |
| PPF patterns | Generic patterns available | Model-specific patterns with the sensor cutouts built in |
| Windshield | Standard size | Large and raked; more sun exposure and more chip exposure |
Verdict: A Tesla needs the same three layers as any new car, but the film choice and the patterns are not interchangeable. The package exists so none of that is left to a generic install.

Why a Tesla gets its own package
Every Tesla model carries multiple Autopilot cameras, including the cluster at the top of the windshield, and each model has its own glass geometry. Film that is wrong for those positions, or cut carelessly around them, is the one way a tint job can create a problem on a car that otherwise has none.
That is why the Tesla package starts with film choice: non-metallic ceramic only, cut around each camera zone, with the film, glass coverage and pattern confirmed for your exact model before the project is booked. The general Tesla services page covers each model in more detail.
Model notes
The Model Y and Model 3 are Tesla’s highest-volume models. The Model Y’s large glass roof needs careful film application around the edges and camera zones, and tinting it is what turns the car from a greenhouse into a cabin you can get into after an afternoon parked at the beach. The Model 3 has a panoramic roof too, and its front camera zone requires a precision cut.
The Model S has a longer hood and more front bumper area, so the full front film covers more square footage and the quote reflects that. The Model X has falcon-wing doors and a windshield that runs well over the driver’s head, both of which require their own patterns and more time on the glass.
The Cybertruck is the exception. Its stainless steel body is not painted, so Cybertruck work is wraps, glass film and PPF on glass, trim and specific panels only. See the Cybertruck PPF page before you request a quote.
The film
Full front PPF goes on from ProLayers patterns built for each model, with the sensor cutouts in the pattern. The hood, fenders, bumper, mirrors and, on the full package, the A-pillars are covered in clear film that self-heals light scratches with heat. The Tesla PPF page explains the coverage lines. Tesla paint has less thickness to lose than most, which is the plain reason this film pays for itself on the first gravel truck you follow down Mokulele Highway.
The ceramic coating goes over the film and the remaining paint, and on the Ultimate tier over full-body PPF. Windshield film goes on last, after the coating has cured, so the glass is protected from chips and the cabin from heat without affecting the camera cluster. Clear windshield film is allowed under Hawaii law, and the tint on the side glass comes with the Hawaii certificate.
Before you book
Send the model, year and color, and tell us whether you want the roof included. Pattern availability for the exact model is confirmed before a date is held, and the price table above shows what each layer costs if booked on its own, before Hawaii GET. The new car package is the equivalent for everything that is not a Tesla.
Questions
Will the tint affect Autopilot or FSD cameras?
Only non-metallic ceramic film goes on Teslas, cut around the camera housings rather than over them. Film and glass coverage are confirmed for your exact model at consultation against the current manufacturer documentation.
Can you tint the glass roof on a Model 3 or Model Y?
Yes. The full package includes the panoramic roof in ADAS-safe ceramic film, applied carefully around the edges and camera zones. It is the largest glass area on the car and the main reason the cabin heats up in a sunny parking lot.
Why does Tesla paint need PPF more than other brands?
Tesla paint is thinner than most factory paint, so a rock that would leave a mark on another hood can chip through to primer on a Model Y. Front film takes that hit instead.
What tint shade do most Tesla owners choose?
The front side windows must let at least 35% of light through, measured through film and glass, under Hawaii law. Most owners go darker on the rear doors and back glass for privacy and heat rejection where the body style allows it; the shop walks through the shades with film samples on the glass and confirms the rear shade for a Model Y or Model X.
My Tesla was shipped from the mainland. Is the tint legal?
Often not on the front windows, since many mainland states allow darker fronts than Hawaii. The shop meters the glass, replaces the front film if it reads too dark, and gives you the Hawaii tint certificate.
Is the Cybertruck package different?
Yes. The stainless body does not take PPF the way paint does, so Cybertruck work is tint, wraps and film on glass and specific panels. The Cybertruck PPF page covers what is possible.
How long does the package take?
2 to 3 days for the Tesla Owner Package. Tint, film and coating are sequenced so the car comes in once. Full-body film on the Ultimate tier can add time.
Can the PPF be removed later?
Yes. Removed properly, the film comes off without residue and the paint under it is as it was the day the film went on.
Do you offer financing?
Not yet. When Offshore's online payments open, Affirm will be offered on every package tier, subject to an eligibility check. Until then the shop confirms the price and takes the deposit directly; the financing page has the details.
