One thing missing from her story. Did she pay cash for the Model 3? Because if she's making bank payments on her new Tesla I'm not sure she legally can cut it up.

I'm not saying that what she's done isn't amazing. But if her bank learns what she's done they will not I would think be very happy.

Depends on the loan. In general, you can modify whatever you want with a car under loan but NOT under lease. However, modifications usually mean your car is worth less and you have a higher chance of being underwater, so could result in an additional financial liability in the case of a repo.

She makes anywhere between $18k - $30k per month from patreon alone, on top of her youtube revenue. I think she's well past being burdened by such issues.

I would imagine a youtuber of her caliber would expense this as a business purchase. I doubt she took a loan for this.
