Dressing up your Tesla Cybertruck with a touch of ferocity? Unplugged Performance is here to help! This renowned tuner has just unleashed a plethora of upgrades for the recently released electric pickup. From beefed-up brakes to custom wheel rims, and even skid plates for off-road adventures, they've got you covered.

The Cybertruck's apocalyptic vibe is elevated with extras like storage systems, alternative wheel rims, roof racks, and Starlink station holders. But the fun doesn't stop there. For those who love camping trips and off-roading, Unplugged Performance offers even heavier equipment, such as steel underbody protection and steel mudguards. Add some powerful lights, and you're ready to conquer the wasteland!

Their advertising slogan, "Badass" sums it up nicely. Their front bumper guard, for instance, is touted as a "badass" product made for a "badass" world. Crafted from high-strength carbon steel, it promises immense strength and durability.

However, think twice before diving into these upgrades, as they can be quite pricey. A 6.3-inch lift alone will set you back around 10,000 US dollars. A new rear bumper costs 4,000 US dollars, while the front bumper will cost you 3,000. A bumper protection adds an extra 2,000 US dollars, and the underbody panel costs 2,300 US dollars.

By the time you're done, your Cybertruck might barely resemble the original. Whether that's a plus or a minus is a matter of personal taste. But there's one thing to consider: all these steel parts add up to more weight. Even the most expensive Cybertruck already weighs 3.1 tons – add all the steel, and the battery will have a lot more than it bargained for. That doesn't exactly boost your range.

But fear not, Tesla itself offers a variety of accessories as well. For around 3,000 US dollars, for example, you can get a tent that attaches to the loading area. A ramp costing 400 US dollars, a spare wheel priced at 1,250 US dollars, and a matt black film that looks rather stylish on the car at 6,500 US dollars.

P.S. If you're feeling particularly brave, consider upgrading your brakes with Unplugged Performance's stainless steel brake line set, priced at $295.00. Or maybe you'd prefer the stainless steel sport brake line set for the Model X, priced at the same amount. You could also consider wheel spacers, priced between $185.00 and $195.00. A full upgrade would depend on the specific components you choose.
