How to wrap the curve along the fender window/door
Not sure what to look up but I was wondering how to wrap this section (circled in green in the pic)? Knifeless tape? removing the mirror? I didn't want to use plastidip since I wanted it to be gloss black to match the TRD fender flares that I have.

I'd just go with removing the mirror+knifeless tape option if I were you.

Did this to my car and ran it for a while. Remove your mirror and just take your time with the knifeless tape. Takes a good while to make sure the lines and curves are just right depending on what color your car is. Black wasn't the easiest to see.
