Choose your model to see how ceramic tint can reduce heat through its windows, windshield, and roof.
The Model X panoramic windshield reaches above the front seats, bringing sun onto your face and shoulders. XPEL ceramic tint helps reduce heat through that glass, while your choice of shade controls brightness. Side-window tint can add privacy and soften glare.
Sun reaches the Model Y cabin through the windshield, side windows, and glass roof. Ceramic film helps reduce heat through the treated glass, while shade changes its brightness and appearance. Factory-dark rear glass provides privacy, but it is not the same as ceramic film for heat rejection.

Ceramic tint adds heat rejection to a Model S without requiring the darkest shade. Choose the side-window appearance you like, then consider windshield or glass-roof tint if sunlight is uncomfortable from the front or above. Careful edge work keeps the finish clean along the frameless windows.
The Model 3’s rear window extends into the roof, so tint should look clean from outside and through the rearview mirror. XPEL ceramic film helps reduce heat through the treated glass; your shade choice sets the balance of glare reduction, privacy, and visible light.
The Cybertruck’s broad windshield and glass roof bring sunshine deep into the cabin. XPEL ceramic film helps reduce heat through those surfaces, while side-window shades let you choose the privacy and brightness you want.
The Model X panoramic windshield brings daylight above the front seats as well as ahead of the driver. Ceramic tint can help reduce heat through that glass, while shade controls brightness. This OC House of Tint installation was completed in one full piece at 50%, with no seam across the view.
XR Black and XR Plus offer ceramic infrared heat rejection and UV protection. CS focuses on appearance, glare, and privacy.
Style & privacy
XPEL CS adds shade, privacy, and glare control with a color-stable finish. XR Black and XR Plus are our ceramic options when reducing sun heat is the priority.
Nano-ceramic
Up to 88% Infrared Heat Rejection
XPEL XR Black is nano-ceramic tint that helps reduce heat through your Tesla’s glass. Its ceramic technology works in lighter shades too, so you can choose the look and privacy you prefer.
Multilayer ceramic
Up to 98% Infrared Heat Rejection
XPEL XR Plus uses multilayer ceramic technology for higher infrared heat rejection. It is our premium choice when sun heat through the windshield, side windows, or roof is your main concern.
Infrared rejection ratings are not total solar heat or cabin-temperature reductions. Performance varies with film shade and the glass.

The finishing details
On roll-down door windows, we shave the tint to follow the top edge of the glass. The result is a close, factory-style finish you can see when the window is lowered.
Computer-cut patterns help fit the film to your vehicle. Careful hand-finishing completes the visible edge.
If sun heat makes your Tesla uncomfortable, ceramic tint can be a useful upgrade. XPEL XR Black and XR Plus reduce heat through the glass they cover, and both offer UV protection. Shade is a separate choice: it changes glare, privacy, and how much visible light enters the cabin.
Start with the sunlight that bothers you most. Side-window tint helps with glare and privacy; windshield and roof film address sun coming from ahead and above. Factory-dark rear glass does not tell you how much heat it rejects. A lighter ceramic film can add heat rejection when you already like the rear windows’ appearance.
Yes. We install ceramic windshield film on Tesla vehicles, including the large Model X panoramic glass. Lighter ceramic shades can help reject heat while admitting more visible light than darker shades. We help you choose with both daytime comfort and nighttime visibility in mind.
Your Tesla model, film choice, and the windows included determine the quote. Large windshields, roof sections, and curved rear glass require different amounts of film and installation time. Careful shaping, clean edges, and protection around interior trim are part of the work.
Roof tint is optional. If overhead sunlight bothers you, ceramic film can add heat rejection, while the shade can soften brightness. Factory-dark glass does not automatically offer the same performance as ceramic film. We can compare roof options for your model and how bright you like the cabin.
XR Black is our most popular ceramic choice for Tesla owners. XR Plus offers higher infrared heat-rejection performance and is our premium option for sun heat. Both come in a choice of shades. XPEL CS is also available for owners whose main priorities are appearance, glare control, and privacy.
Yes, when the glass and pattern allow it. A one-piece installation avoids a visible film join across the rear glass. The curves and size of Model 3 and Model Y rear windows take careful shaping, so we confirm the approach for the actual glass before installation.
