Tesla Model S Window Tinting
Denver, Colorado
The Tesla Model S is Tesla's flagship luxury sedan, and its expansive glass area deserves premium protection. With a sleek, low-profile design and large panoramic glass roof (on 2021+ models), the Model S is particularly susceptible to solar heat gain — especially at Colorado's mile-high elevation where UV intensity is approximately 25% stronger than at sea level.
Our premium ceramic window tint for the Model S provides up to 98% infrared heat rejection and 99% UV protection. This keeps the cabin cooler, preserves the premium interior materials, and complements the Model S's luxury aesthetic with a refined, uniform appearance.
Model S Tinting Considerations
Flagship Interior Protection
The Model S features premium materials including available white or cream interiors that are especially susceptible to UV fading. Ceramic tint blocks 99% of UV rays, preserving your investment.
Panoramic Glass Roof (2021+)
The refreshed Model S's full glass roof lets in substantial solar energy. Ceramic tint reduces heat transmission while maintaining the open, airy cabin feel that makes the Model S special.
Frameless Windows
Like all Tesla sedans, the Model S features frameless door windows that require specialized installation techniques for a perfect, bubble-free finish that won't peel at the edges.
Glare Reduction for Yoke
The Model S's yoke steering and center touchscreen can suffer from sun glare. Window tinting reduces interior glare, improving visibility during Colorado's bright, sunny days.

Model S Tinting FAQs
How much does it cost to tint a Tesla Model S?+
Tesla Model S window tinting in Denver typically ranges from $399 to $999 depending on film type and coverage. As Tesla's flagship sedan, many Model S owners choose our highest-grade ceramic film. Contact us for pricing.
Does the Model S have a glass roof that needs tinting?+
Yes. The refreshed Model S (2021+) features a panoramic glass roof similar to the Model 3 and Y. Even pre-refresh models have large rear glass areas. The panoramic roof benefits significantly from ceramic tinting to reduce heat, glare, and UV exposure.
Will tinting affect the Model S yoke or touchscreen visibility?+
No. Window tint is applied to exterior glass surfaces and does not affect the visibility or functionality of the Model S's yoke steering, touchscreen, or instrument cluster. By reducing glare, tinting can actually improve screen visibility.
What VLT is recommended for the Model S front windows in Colorado?+
The Model S factory front side glass is approximately 72% VLT. To stay at Colorado's 27% minimum, we recommend a 35% ceramic film, which brings the combined VLT to approximately 26–27%. See our Colorado tint laws guide.
