Do you mind posting good pictures of your 22 with matte black vinyl? Having a hard time deciding between gun metal and matte black. It would be greatly appreciated.

Sure thing, I'll take a few tomorrow morning.

I just did the twraps staple delete. This was super easy after watching the great youtube posted by twraps. These things absolutely exude great quality. I went with twraps over other options after reading posts on this site and what a great decision that was. Check this eye candy out.

WHY YOU DO THAT. Now I want the gunmetal staple delete!

Don't get me wrong, I've really enjoyed the OG black vinyl, but gunmetal looks so slick.

Looks great! Glad to hear they’re still holding up. At this price we can get a new set every year! Here’s a pic of mine after 1k miles, still looking great

You can see there are small imperfections, but they aren't product related. Just a matter of me saying that's good enough for doing it myself for the first time and without taking the wheel off and doing it flat. And you can't see them without being right on top of them.

I expect I'll need to replace at least some next spring because I applied these in not ideal weather (outside, 50ish degrees) so there are random corners that are slightly lifted. I figure the PNW winter will end up messing with those ones. The wheel I redid after getting my tire patched is perfect. Weather was 70s that day.

Many thanks Perry24r. Those look sharp. It’s subtle but like it better than all gloss black. I think I’ve made my choice. Now need to find the time to apply them.
