The embedded source URL was reported unavailable by that repository. Both the embedded artist and the download-page uploader are credited here. Attribution metadata is preserved in `model.glb` and `manifest.json`.

Tesla Studio changes: lossless mesh compression; externalized original textures; transform normalization to 4.72 m length; configurable paint, upholstery, wheel finish and lighting; approximate hinged presentation groups; and an optional illustrative spoiler. The source has 179,692 triangles, all retained by the rig. Panel partitions are not a factory rig, and wheel/trim treatments are illustrative rather than exact OEM options.

Rebuild: download the source GLB from the credited repository, then run `node scripts/assets/import-highland.mjs /path/to/2024_tesla_model_3.glb` from the project root. `manifest.json` records the original SHA-256. The original embedded images are copied without re-encoding. Runtime adaptation is in `src/studio/vehicles/highland.ts`.

This is not a Tesla-endorsed model. Tesla and its vehicle names remain trademarks of Tesla, Inc.

## tesla-wrap.org preview adaptation
Original asset files are unchanged. Runtime adaptation normalizes the model, separates approximate exterior paint faces and projects Tesla sample panels onto the body. This is an approximate visualization, not factory UV compatibility or a physical installation template. Viewer code is independently implemented with Three.js.
