Nice did you do by yourself? Is it easy to apply? Does it comes as small pieces or a single sticker for each wheel?

Yes I did it myself, it's kinda easy to apply if you take your time, they also send you a few extra pieces in case you mess up. And the kit comes as separate pieces and you place 5 stickers on each wheel to cover all the chrome. I recommend this because it's far cheaper than going to a shop and getting them powder coated.

Great! I will try that and post the outcome. Thanks for the information.

This is my project tomorrow. How long did this take for you?
I did only for two wheels as of today. 1st wheel took some time, second got easier. Try applying by doing one more small piece otherwise the alignment not setting properly.

Update on my vinyl wrap stickers. After 2 weeks.
Applying easy, looks good, but last Saturday I had a long drive of 400 Miles, drove 80miles/hr, when I returned home my rear right wheel wrap it’s gone. Out of 5 pieces Not even a single sticker left ?.
Bought peelable vinyl spray paint this time but it is not even sticking to the wheels, had hard time removing the sprayed paint.
Overall my opinion temporary is temporary, If you have money get powder coating with professional. Thank you.

That is very unforntunate, I put mine on 4 months ago and have not had a single one fall off yet. Weird how it doesn't even stick to the wheel now??? Will you opt for powder coating now?

Not immediately I thought powder coating is the permanent solution.

Sweet. Is it one big piece per wheel?

Before and after putting on the vinyl stickers. Definitely messed up in some spots but hey they were $40 and still look a lot better than the chrome.

No, it is 6 individual pieces per wheel, which I think makes it easier to put on and adjust. They also sent a couple extras in case I messed up and had to take it off.
