    I don't like how the edges are sharp. I think with them rounded it would look better.

    Also to end on the hood instead of bumper. Looks good though.

    X2 just does not look right.

    I would go with a slightly darker color like gunmetal gray or something.

    Looks good to me. I'd vote no on striping the roof.

    Nice job! It's not something I would do but I think it looks pretty good. There are so many Tacomas on the road, I'm all for making yours look unique.

    back to bone stock.
    i dont like it on the bumper. but nicely done.

    i would have gone with a more gentle color too..one not so contrasty. like a flat, dark gray color. almost black.

    like "ghost" rally stripes.

    The front of the truck with the stripe reminds me of a mini.

    I am starting to agree with the mob about the front bumper stripe. Good thing is that it'll be the easiest to remove and should be pretty easy. i still want to redo the back as well b/c of the dip before the tailgate handle. i should have removed that part all way before starting. will make easier. thanks for all the suggestions and for those who dont like it, that's cool, dont look at me when i pass you by :)

    :thumbsup: Post pics if you take it off the bumper. IMO that's going to make a huge difference.
