Guys, welcome to Lucky Five Motorsport. Just a run-through of the Teslas we have in at the moment and what we're doing to them. We have a Glacier Blue — a full satin PPF conversion, the window tint's been done, and we've sealed that in with the NXTZEN Graphene Serum coating. The next Juniper is a Quicksilver, also receiving the NXTZEN ELITE GS02 dual-layer graphene coating. Up the top, another Juniper in white; another underneath; a Glacier Blue Juniper, a red Juniper, a white Juniper, and more.
There's a reason we're so busy and full of Teslas — we love them. We're passionate about cars, and passionate about what we do. Don't hesitate to reach out.

From a family panel shop to Melbourne’s Tesla specialist
Lucky Five didn't start as a trend. It grew out of a lifetime on the tools — and a refusal to cut corners. In Michael's words:
01
Born in the panel shop
I started as a teenager working alongside my father, a qualified panel beater, then went on to master the trade and earn qualifications across multiple disciplines.
02
Skills beyond my years
Fast-tracked through my apprenticeships in body repair, mechanical, and aluminium & steel structural welding — with early completions awarded and new milestones set in Victoria.
03
Breaking the mould
With 20+ years behind me I built Lucky Five to set a new standard for EV customisation and protection — backed by Tesla training and accreditation. My non-negotiables: excellence, transparency, and skill over stigma.
04
Partners, not pretenders
We took the lead on Unplugged Performance Australia and were awarded Partnership with Avery Dennison. We work with global leaders in this field — and we're recognised by them.
05
Progressive growth
The family panel shop is now a respected accident repair centre — and through my role at RP Panels, a Tesla Approved Repairer. "Drive Your Dream" isn't just our slogan; it's the vision behind everything we do.

What we do
Everything your Tesla needs, in one workshop
Four areas of specialist work — tap through for the detail on each.
Melbourne's original Tesla specialist. Watch Michael explain what genuine Tesla specialisation really takes — trained and accredited by Tesla, to a standard a general detailer simply can't match.
Hey guys, Mick from Lucky Five Motorsport. There are so many businesses out there describing themselves as a Tesla specialist — and it got me thinking: what actually makes a Tesla specialist?
A Tesla specialist is someone who knows the car inside and out — with technicians who are trained and accredited by Tesla to dismantle and work on these cars. If you're going to pull something apart, like a side camera or a rear camera, those cameras need to be recalibrated. To do that properly you need to be trained, you need all the equipment, and you need the software systems to talk to these cars.
A lot of shops out there aren't doing that — and that's the difference with us. Our technicians are trained and accredited by Tesla, we know how to do it, and we have the equipment to do it. Knowing that your car is being put back together correctly and safely is the most important thing — and that's what makes a Tesla specialist.

Front Lip
Enhance the visual impact of your vehicle and improve efficiency by decreasing the total vehicle drag coefficiency by 6.6%. In addition to the decrease in drag, a front lip installation increases the front downforce by 35.4%. Your vehicle will accelerate faster and perform more efficiently. The impact-resistant polymer we use is strong and adds protection to your front end.
Ceramic Paint Protection
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer coating that chemically bonds to your vehicle’s paint, creating layers of protection from UV rays, stains, and etching. This makes cleaning the surface of your vehicle easier, as it creates a super hydrophobic coating that helps to repel water, dirt, and road grime whilst dramatically increasing gloss levels and heightening the appearance of your vehicle.
Window Tinting
Our ceramic window tint films increase protection, privacy and heat deflection capabilities. Window tinting completes the enhanced look of a vehicle.
