Nice. If I ever get a curb/damage to my 21's I definitely plan on powder coating. Black looks good. I'll try to match the gray accent in the current 21's if I ever have to powder coat.

Looks fantastic! Are they using the same center caps or do you have gun metal and black versions of them?

How well do the wraps stay on through the four seasons? Any corners peeling?

When I had the vinyl wraps on, I used the same center cap and did nothing to it since it already has a gunmetal background. Now that they are black, I took apart the center cap and spray painted it satin black and it matched the wheels perfectly. This was before I painted it:

I didn't have them on long enough to see how they would last but I did go thru the car wash a bunch and they seemed pretty strong.

I did the exact same thing to my center caps. It's great that the piece to paint can be isolated from the rest of the cap.
