I’m sure the wrap shops love getting those calls

Sure, I mean shrink wrap is cheap. It’s even funnier when you slap some Vaseline on there afterwards.

That may be, but I doubt many Cybertruck owners would want to make it less clear they own a Cybertruck.

Honestly I think I’ve seen more wrapped cybertrucks than non wrapped ones.

I don’t think any amount of vinyl wrap can make it look less like a Cybertruck.

Except for the losing fingers part maybe?

You have to use the flaw as a strength, the extra material on the sheet can be removed with the edges of a panel. The panel edges are like the tear blade on a tinfoil box.

If they’re fine with leaving visible seams on the edges, yes. If they’re trying to pull it over peaks with one piece, then no, it’s worse than curves.

Good thing, too, because that cheap sombitch will rust to all hell if exposed to the elements.

No it doesn’t. It’s made of 300-series stainless steel which is highly resistant to rusting. Left out for the elements long enough it would be among the last vehicles in the world with something still left of the body. It’ll probably even outlive Chevrolet Corvette which is made of fibreglass.

The rust you hear about is not the body that is rusting. It’s iron particles in the air, mostly from brake rotors, called “fallout” that lands on the bare steel causing a chemical reaction which causes it to rust. That iron particle that is, not the stainless steel. It’s surface contamination that can be cleaned off. There’s no damage to the body itself.
