I think it looks sharp! Did you end up wrapping the front too or getting trd pro parts ?

Looks like good work. Did I miss the thought-process for choosing to go with the wrap over paint? Did it just boil down to $$?

Really just because I was afraid of committing to something I couldn't (easily) undo.

I think it looks great! Good job, OP! The fender flares came out way better than I ever expected. Looks like extra trim pieces, not just wrapped portions of the body panels.

Remember we all have our own styles.


I haven't put any pics up of my "Ghost" 16 Trail yet because I want to finish it before the abuse and opinions start.

Looks awesome. I’m planning to wrap my front and was planning to go with matte, but satin looks like it comes straight from the factory. Thanks for sharing!

honestly, with about $50 worth of vinyl + youtube videos, you couldve done it yourself. i got qouted $450-$550 for the front/rear bumper from a few shops until i decided to wrap it myself. yea, its not perfect but if anything happens, i could just do it again.

I don't trust myself to be that handy. "Not perfect" wouldn't have cut it for me.
