For just being vinyl, that looks pretty damn good!
 But here's the important question, how do YOU like the look?

Camaro CRAZY

Seems like it'd be a lot of work to do with vinyl. Harder than plastidip? Looks great though. How long did it take you?

Thanks guys I like it both ways and I wouldn't mind going back and forth with chrome. It only took around 4 hours , Ive had it on for 5 days and no problems

FYI ... The stock 20's don't come chromed, someone paid a lot of money getting them done. Nice job with the vinyl

I remember the days when having chromed factory wheels was everything.

Black wheels aren't my thing, but I have to say you've done an excellent job as far as the pics show. How did you manage to keep them wrinkle free, with all the weird angles going on?
