Hey there TW. So I’ve been looking at getting one of those coveted TRD pro grills, with the garnish sensor cover. I really dislike how glossy they are compared to the Matte Grill. Has anyone discussed or found a way to apply a matte black vinyl mimicking the honeycomb look and taking away the gloss black look?

Would this interfere with the sensor at all?

Thanks in advanced and sorry is this has been discussed I couldn’t find it.
