Default Wheel (rim) Question - TPMS with black valve stems?

Just picked up a set of the (oem) 20” 5 Split Spoke (style 5039) wheels - they are gloss black:


I am ordering a set of the TPMS to be used with these wheels, and it looks like the VDO and Denso units have silver stems. Would really love to use some black valve stems with these wheels (don’t know how they came when new on an F Type).

Are there TPMS options with black valve stems?

Just get yourself some shrink tubing and make the silver ones black. Piece of cake.

Or I am sure that there is an aftermarket sleeve that slips over the stem. Years back they made chrome valve stem caps that came with chrome sleeves to cover the black stems. Sure they make black ones now. Check Amazon.
