That would be cool. I wonder if we can get that Etsy company to cut something. I’ll send them a message. I just picked up some Spidertrax spacers so I’m sticking with the stock wheels.

We can’t use a film as the surface is not flat
Ah gotcha. Haven’t taken a close look at the center caps.
I'm relying on the gloss portion to really slide through the air and increase aerodynamics, thereby negating the extra weight penalty.
That does look good.

Where did you find those?
Performed the hyperdip myself. These are full stock premium plus wheels.

Extremely easy. I did all four wheels in 4 hours. Most of it is drying time. If you are just doing the emblem I would estimate 1 hour. First the wheel has to be clean and completely dry. I used kitchen garbage bags to cover inside brake and caliper. Mask off anything on wheel you don’t want painted. I did full wheel so I didn’t mask off anything. You start with a super light tack coat and wait 10 minutes between each coat. Less is better. There are many YouTube videos on how to perform. Practice on a big cardboard box before so you know how to use the spray without causing it to be wet/running. Indoors with no wind is best. I’d recommend doing entire rim/lugs/logo for consistency of color. I love it.

I’m going to stick to just the center caps; looks like they have an anthracite gray whick would be a ghost match for the overtrail gray wheels
Looks awesome! So what's the final verdict on this "sensor behind the emblem" that we can't interfere with that I've seen mentioned here and there? Myth?
I can only provide anecdotal evidence but I’ve had it almost since I acquired the truck 7/1 and I’ve had zero issues with the radar. aCC works great, is responsive, and from varying distances. I haven’t tried it in too much inclement weather yet but nothing screams that performance will be impacted by this film.
Thank you. I believe a myth. All my sensors are working normally from what I can tell.
