Make it. Share it. Sell it. Shape what’s next.

We’re building a creator-powered marketplace for custom wraps, graphic kits, decals, stickers, 3D parts, and even a peer-to-peer Slate Owner Parts Exchange. If you’re a designer, fabricator, 3D print specialist, or hands-on builder with something Slate-worthy to offer—we’d love to have you involved.

Slate Rides™ is an independent platform, created by and for the community.
We are not affiliated with any automaker, including Slate Auto, but we’re inspired by the creative energy forming around it. Our goal is to support that energy—by giving builders and makers a place to share their work, reach a growing audience, and help shape a new kind of ownership experience. If what you create helps a Slate stand out, we’re here to help you do the same.

Become a vendor. Join the movement. Set up your storefront.
Let’s build this—together.
