    I've been able to make pretty big differences in cars' appearances with vinyl wrap details.

    I played around with different concepts of wrap details on the Tacoma with photoshop. I just couldn't come up with anything that got me excited except the last one. I couldn't be the only one that has thought about it so I thought I would share.

    1. Whole grille surround

    2. Lower grille surround only; subtle, but not terrible.

    3. Straight down from the foglights; not terrible actually.

    4. Foglight surrounds. That's a no dog. Looks like a beard.

    5. Angled down from fog lights. This is my favorite. Worth considering actually.

    I also think a headlight wrap that covered everything except the high beam/projector and DRL would be cool. I think it would kind of look like the pro hl for a hell of a lot cheaper.

    I like #5 and the headlight wrap, but what if you brought it up a little so the black meets the flare on the side like this:
