Frequently asked questions

Which Tesla models are compatible?

These canards fit all 2021+ Model S (including standard and Long Range) except the 2026+ Model S Plaid. They are not compatible with any Model 3, Model X, or Model Y.

Do they require drilling or permanent modification?

No. The canards use existing mounting points on the front bumper. Installation involves cleaning the surface and securing them with the included adhesive tape or hardware. No drilling required. Check your kit for included mounting tape. If you prefer a stronger bond, use an automotive-grade exterior tape.

Will they affect the front camera or sensors?

No. The canards mount on the lower bumper section, well away from the front-facing cameras and ultrasonic sensors. They do not obstruct any safety systems.

How do they improve brake cooling?

The canards act as small triangular wings that redirect air entering the front bumper's split openings toward the wheel wells. This increases airflow over the brake calipers, helping reduce heat buildup during aggressive driving. For best results, pair them with aftermarket brake ducts if available for your model.

What finish options are available?

These canards come in a real molded carbon fiber finish. The option types available allow you to choose between different weave styles or a painted finish to match your vehicle. Choose the finish that best matches your existing carbon fiber accents or go with a painted option for a seamless look.

How long does installation take?

Most owners complete the installation in 20-30 minutes. The process involves cleaning the mounting area, applying adhesive, and pressing the canards into place. No special tools are needed. Allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours before exposing the canards to high-pressure car washes.
