New Tesla Model Y "Juniper" & Performance DIY PPF: Essential Panels You Should Protect
The Tesla Model Y “Juniper” refresh began EU deliveries in March 2025, bringing notable updates across design and tech. The new Model Y Performance variant started rolling out in September 2025 in Europe, with further regions to follow
Why Your New Tesla Model Y Needs PPF
Daily driving exposes even a brand-new Tesla to stone chips, scratches, bug splatter, and UV fading. Tesla paint also seems to chip more easily than average, which makes Paint Protection Film (PPF) especially valuable.
A DIY Pre-Cut PPF-Kit protects high-impact areas and preserves resale value – without the high cost of a full studio install.
Must-Have Panels to Protect First
- Front bumper – prime impact zone for chips and bugs
- Hood – highway debris & wash-induced swirls
- Front Fenders – wide surfacing = more exposure
- Rocker panels / side skirts / Lower Doors – debris flung up by tires
- Rear Door Area - Highly impacted Area
- Door Handles & Mirrors – high-touch, scratch-prone areas
If you already notice small chips, we also offer a Touch-up pen at Tesla-Protect.com to fix minor paint damages before applying PPF.
Full PPF-Kit for the Model Y „Juniper“
For the refreshed New Tesla Model Y “Juniper” (2025) we also offer a complete Pre-Cut PPF-Kit, available in different Film brands and finishes.
Choose between gloss for a factory shine or matte for a fresh, modern look.
Check out our different Materials and find the one that fits your needs in our comprehensive Material Guide.

DIY vs. Professional Installation
- DIY pre-cut kits: precise fitment, no cutting on the car, huge cost savings; start with easier panels (hood/rockers) and work methodically.
- Professional install: great if you want a full wrap with no learning curve, but expect a higher price tag.
Our Tesla PPF Journey
We began offering Tesla-specific, DIY-ready Pre-Cut PPF-Kits more than five years ago at Tesla-Protect.com.
Due to growing demand, we launched PPF-Kits.eu- offering Pre-Cut PPF from multiple PPF Brands for all makes and models (not just Tesla) for individuals and businesses.
Final Thoughts
For the new Model Y and Model Y Performance, we recommend a Full Pre-Cut DIY PPF-Kit to achieve complete protection. It will help preserve the finish, lower maintenance costs, and maintain that factory-fresh look – now tailored for the 2025 Juniper refresh and the new Performance Model as our updated patterns roll out.
If you’re not confident installing a Full Kit, start with the high-impact zones such as the Hood, lower door area and Door Handles, which take the most damage from road debris and daily use.
