Hey everyone,
I'm a Tesla owner. Last year Tesla's Holiday Update added a Custom Wraps feature in Toybox → Paint Shop, where you can apply custom designs to your car's 3D model on the touchscreen. I thought it was pretty cool, and I'd actually wanted to build a wrap design tool for years. So with Tesla officially supporting it, I finally went ahead and built one.
It's at tesla-wrap.design and it's free.
You pick your Tesla model (Model 3, Model Y, Cybertruck), design your wrap in a 2D canvas editor — upload images, add text, draw shapes. There's a 3D model that updates live as you edit, so you can rotate it around and see exactly how the wrap looks on the actual car.
There's also an AI mode where you type something like "Japanese wave pattern" or "cyberpunk neon" and it generates a full wrap design. Some results are amazing, some are garbage. That's AI for you.
Some numbers so far:
- 2,000+ registered users
- 3,700+ designs created with AI generation
- ~$200 in revenue from AI image generation credits
Tech stack: Next.js 15, Three.js for 3D, Konva for the 2D editor, running on Cloudflare Workers (D1 + R2). Monorepo with pnpm + Turborepo. Solo project.
After building it I realized this core engine (2D editor + 3D preview + AI generation) could work for a lot of product categories — t-shirts, packaging, phone cases, mugs. The existing tools in this space are either way too expensive (Threekit charges enterprise pricing) or have pretty bad UX (check out Zakeke reviews on Shopify). So I'm exploring turning this into a more general 3D product customization platform.
Would love to connect with anyone who:
- Has experience with Shopify app development or distribution
- Is into 3D on the web (Three.js, WebGPU, etc.)
- Is a product manager or designer thinking about product customization tools
Feel free to DM or drop a comment.

Happy to answer any questions about the build, tech, or the journey.
