    Hit or miss, it does look raptorish. I personally dont think I would ever do it.

    It does have some raptor traits but Im just not yes or no about it. It adds some depth to the truck just not sure though.

    I vinyl wrapped the bottom of the truck to give it a transition and added protection from road debri but now it seems it needs something. 20180611_214118.jpg

    If it was me and I was looking at that truck I would ask for a discount to remove it.

    Looks different. You can definitely hide some scratches with this decal

    I think this looks pretty good. The graphics in the pic look bad IMO.

    Agree with this.... get with him and see what you 2 can come up with. Decals aren't for everyone, but its your truck. Brain storm with Matt and see what you come up with! An original is better than a mass product.... let's see what you come up with!

    I guess when I did the rocker panels with vinyl wrap I was not trying to copy anything from other truck manufacturers but now that I have seen this I just want to remove it. Screenshot_20180612-054603.jpg

    Personally,I like to keep things simple.Too many decals and such take away from the natural lines and contours of the truck.The Tundra is a great looking truck without any distractions.

    I agree with you. The main reason I did the rocker panel was because of rock chip prevention and the coating that toyota put on the lower portion of the truck was almost a yellowish grey

    I thought those would look cool, until I saw a Tundra over the weekend that had them. I didn’t like them in person.

    Not everyone like decals, All truck manufacturers at some point have used them, I like it but I will drop the skull. I think it will look better without it. just IMHO.
