It's creative, but I probably won't muck with mine.

One question: is the frunk fully closed? If so it's way out of alignment.

I do have this one from in the shop for now though.

This looks great. I was thinking about doing something similar with mine. Did you get yours done by a professional paint shop? If so, what did you pay?

Was thinking about doing an accent lightning blue around the light, but wasn't sure if it would look to cheap or gaudy. Something like this:

The paint work wasn’t too expensive. I went to an all inclusive mod shop that has a paint booth. It wasn’t a full on body shop. The cost was a few hundred bucks. What color is your truck? That would make the difference in the color. Also if you did what you say then the same accent color across the midline of the grille would make sense. I wanted all black and red so this worked for me!

Thanks. My truck is Carbonized Gray so there really isn't any color outside of the lightning blue accents, which I like the look of. Just afraid to get it done and then not like the look of it.

The safer route may be to find a vinyl that matches that color and try it. A shop that does vehicle wraps may be your best option. If you ever get sick of it, peels off with your original paint under it. I imagine an area that small would not be too expensive.
