Tesla Cybertruck · Chantilly, VA
CYBERTRUCK PROTECTION FILM
There is no paint on a Cybertruck, so people ask why it needs PPF. The stainless steel panels cannot chip, but they scratch, show every fingerprint, and pick up rust-colored spots from road iron if they sit dirty. Film on the front takes the scratches instead of the steel, and a ceramic coating on top keeps the fingerprints off.
We have filmed several Cybertrucks in our Chantilly shop, in clear and in satin. This page covers what the stainless actually does on Route 28, what each package means on a body with no curves, and why the coating is not optional on this truck.
What we see in the bay
WHERE A CYBERTRUCK TAKES DAMAGE
Scratches, not chips
Gravel that would chip paint leaves bright scratches in the brushed stainless. There is no repainting them out; the film takes them and self-heals the light ones.
Fingerprints and water spots
Bare stainless shows every touch and every dried drop. A ceramic coating over the film and the exposed steel is what keeps the truck looking clean.
Road iron and rust spots
Brake dust and rail-line iron particles embed in the surface and rust in place. A coated surface releases them in a wash instead of holding them.
Flat panels, sharp edges
The Cybertruck's flat panels show any film edge, so the pattern has to be cut to the panel edges exactly. Our patterns are cut for the truck, not adapted from a car.
Three packages
WHAT EACH PACKAGE COVERS ON THE CYBERTRUCK
Partial Front
High-impact zones only · Half a day
The lower nose and the leading edge of the hood panel plus the mirror housings. Covers the strike zone but leaves a visible edge on the flat hood.
- Full front bumper
- Leading 18" of the hood
- Leading edge of both fenders
- Side mirrors
Full Front
What most drivers choose · One day
The full hood panel, the front fenders, the lower nose, mirrors, and the light bar surround. Edges land on the panel breaks, so nothing shows. This is the package every Cybertruck we have done has taken.
- Full hood
- Full front bumper
- Both full fenders
- Side mirrors
- Headlights
- A-pillars
Full Front Extended
Front end plus the wear areas · One to two days
Adds the sail panels, door edges, and door cups. Recommended for trucks that see gravel or trailheads, which is most of them.
- Everything in Full Front
- Rocker panels
- Door edges and door cups
- Door strips
- A-pillars (halfway)
Pricing depends on the trim and the coverage you pick. What sets a PPF quote, or request yours and we reply the same business day.
CLEAR OR SATIN
Clear film disappears on the brushed finish and keeps the factory look. Satin film gives the truck the stealth look many owners want without a full wrap. Either way the stainless underneath stays as delivered and the film comes off cleanly later.
CUT FOR STAINLESS PANEL EDGES
The Cybertruck's panels meet at hard creases, so the patterns are cut to those creases rather than wrapped around curves. The film ends exactly on the panel edge and the seams disappear into the body lines.
COATING IS PART OF THE JOB
Uncoated stainless fingerprints the moment it is touched. We coat the film and the exposed steel so the truck rinses clean and the brushed finish stays uniform.

Questions
TESLA CYBERTRUCK PPF QUESTIONS
Because stainless scratches and cannot be repainted. The film takes the scratches, self-heals the light ones, and comes off cleanly later with the steel untouched.
No. Clear film is invisible on the brushed finish. Satin film is the choice if you want the stealth look.
We focus on the front and the wear areas. Full front and full front extended cover the panels that take damage; for a full satin look on every panel, ask us and we will point you to the right shop.
The ceramic coating we apply over the film and the steel. Coated stainless does not hold fingerprints or water spots; a rinse clears it.
Full front is one day; with the coating, plan on two.
