An Ultra-Wide Tesla Model S Plaid
Drive!
|September 2025
The Tesla Model S Plaid isn't exactly a car that flies under the radar. With over 1,000 horsepower and a 0-60 time that embarrasses hypercars, it's already an electrified monster. But for Anthony Pham, "fast" wasn't enough.

He wanted something truly unique-something that wouldn't just turn heads but break necks. Enter his one-of-one widebody Tesla Model S Plaid, a forged carbon fiber-clad beast built in collaboration with some of the best in the business to create a full-fledged supercar killer with the stance to prove it.
A VISION TURNED REALITYOrange County, CA-based Anthony picked up his Model S Plaid in December 2023, and while most owners would be content with letting the Plaid's mind-boggling acceleration do the talking, he had bigger plans. The moment the car arrived, it was sent straight to Competition Carbon, a shop known for pushing the limits of custom carbon fiber work to create a bespoke widebody kit that would transform the already aggressive Plaid into something unlike anything else on the road.
The result: a 5-month build that widened the Model S by nearly a foot, adding bespoke forged carbon fiber bodywork, extreme aero, and a stance that dominates parking spaces like a full-size pickup.The widebody kit itself was developed by TGK Motorsport and Competition Carbon, crafted with the precision and quality normally reserved for high-end supercars.
SIGNATURE Wheels supplied the custom deepdish multispoke setup that completes the widebody lookWhile the Tesla factory bodywork was carefully reshaped, this wasn't a simple bolt-on affairfar from it. The wheel arches were cut, the fenders completely reworked, and the new components molded seamlessly into the car's structure. The attention to detail is next-level, making the entire transformation look factory.
