EV Wraps Tesla Model 3 Center Console Wrap – Carbon Fiber
Quick Overview
- Carbon Fiber texture
- Installation Protection by EV Wraps
- Squeegee included for installation
A carbon fiber wrap matches exceptionally well with the Model 3 center console. It turns the factory glossy piano black, from a fingerprint-friendly surface into a resistant matte surface with a sporty look. At times, we think that this is how the Model 3 should have come from the factory.
No other surface in the Model 3 shares the same texture, but despite that, it blends incredibly well with the rest of the interior and doesn’t look out of place. The Carbon Fiber texture gives the interior a unique look resembling high-end sports cars due to the excellent fit of wrap and OEM-like quality.
The EV Wraps Carbon Fiber Wrap also includes a squeegee for installation, in case you need to remove air pockets during the installation. Installation Protection is another advantage of the product; if you install any piece incorrectly, the manufacturer will send you a replacement free of charge.

This wrap also includes Installation Protection assurance and a squeegee in case you need to get rid of any air pockets.
Overall, the Matrix Black texture wrap is an excellent addition to your Tesla if you want something more subtle than the Carbon Fiber one but would still like to protect the interior from scratches and fingerprints.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Does the wrap completely cover the Model 3 interior plastic?
When perfectly fitted, yes. However, a completely perfect installation is difficult to achieve for someone who is installing it for the first time with no previous wrap install experience.
For this reason, we recommend opting for the dark-colored wraps, such as Carbon Fiber or Matter Black, as any imperfection will be less noticeable.
Can the wrap be removed after installed?
Yes. The wrap is like a thick, durable sticker, albeit a very-high-quality vinyl one. The longer the wrap is installed, the firmer it stays adhered to the center console.
To remove, lift one of the edges and start to pull away slowly but firmly until the entire wrap is removed. You might have to use a light cleaning solution to clean off any residue left by the adhesive.
How difficult is the installation?
The installation requires some degree of precision to install appropriately. If it’s your first time applying a vinyl wrap on a surface, then it will be a longer process. Installation takes around 30 minutes if it’s your first time applying a piece of automotive wrap to the interior.
The good thing is that vinyl wraps are really forgiving. If you’re not pleased with the installation, if there’s a stretch or a crease, you can use a hairdryer or similar tool to apply heat and restore the original shape of the vinyl. Make sure that this is done as fast as possible after installing the wrap.
Which Model 3 Center Console wrap is easier to install?
The most comfortable Model 3 center console wraps to install are the ones with heavy textures, such as carbon fiber or black matrix, as they’re slightly thicker and stay firm throughout the installation process.
The most difficult ones to install are those with smooth, uniform surfaces, such as the black and white wraps. The reason is they are thinner; therefore, slightly more prone to bending in the installation process compared to other thicker vinyl.
What is the most resistant wrap?
Carbon-fiber textured wraps are the most resistant to wear and tear, scratches, and even fingerprint marks due to their uneven texture and thicker design.
Which one goes best with the Model 3 interior?
This is really more a matter of personal taste but it also heavily depends on the interior color of your specific Model 3 configuration.
Most owners with the Black interior would opt for one of the darker wraps, such as carbon fiber or even plain black. Owners with the White and Black interior might consider the white wrap, as it would look good considering a good portion of the interior panels are white.
How are these wraps made?
To begin, millimetric measurements of the Model 3 center console are taken and converted to a digital vector drawing. Then, each piece is precisely cut with commercial-grade vinyl cutters from either 3M 1080 or 3M 2080 vinyl. A sticker-like adhesive is then added for it to be applied without the need for third party glue.
EV Wraps vs. Kenriko. Which brand is best?
EV Wraps is an established manufacturer of wraps of all sorts for electric vehicles and has a more extensive offering of colors and designs. Kenriko specializes in wraps for the Model 3, not only for the center console but other parts such as door handles.
We do prefer the installation protection that EV Wraps offers with every order. This means that an extra practice piece is included with every order so that you can install the wrap more confidently.
3M 1080 vs 3M 2080 Wrap Film
These are very similar wrap films, one being the successor of each other. The 3M 2080 is based on the already well-acclaimed 3M 2080 but has some improvements in terms of durability, stretch and color availability. You can’t go wrong with either product; both are solid alternatives for automotive wrapping. The product page of each wrap should have details on whether it is made with 3M 1080 or 3M 2080 wrap.
Some final thoughts
Console wraps give Model 3 owners an easy way to customize and protect their vehicle’s interior without spending too much money. They can also be removed if you get bored of it and want to change it to a different texture and color.
It’s an excellent investment that will improve your ownership experience and provides a personal touch to your vehicle. We recommend the EV Wraps Carbon Fiber Center Console Wrap as it the most fingerprint-resistant wrap out of the bunch and gives an awesome sporty touch to the interior.
