Not the best photos, but here are my 21's in gloss black. I also took the center caps to the powdercoater with me and he painted them to match (not powdercoat, just paint).

I think they look fantastic.
How long does it takes for them to powdercoat? And how much is the cost?

Where'd you take 'em? I'm about to go this route since my aero covers keep popping out and the vinyl wrap isn't lasting very long already...

Very durable. It will not flake off or scrape generally unless you curb the wheel. It does scratch a bit if you aren't careful during washes.

That's great.. so far for me... but great!
There are plenty in LA too, if it's far away I'd just find one nearby. Note you will almost definitely need jack pucks for them to get the job done.

Can you share a few photos of your 21 wheels? From your avatar photo it looks like you blacked out just a portion of the wheel and it looks great. I’d like to see more!
It’s the twraps black vinyl

Another shoutout to TWRAPS 21" gunmetal wheel vinyl + Abstract Ocean center cap.

- Took about 3 hours to clean and install the vinyl, 5 pieces on each wheel.
- Sprayed the Abstract Ocean center cap to high gloss

It comes out good to what I like.
