Can you wrap parts with texture? My side mirrors have that kind of orange peel texture and now that I'm thInking about it I may do them too. Just need a heat gun, right?

Yes/no. On the door handle that cracked the replacement was textured, the texture shows through lightly where the vinyl was stretched thin.
ETA: It sticks to the textured material just fine but shows the texture through on the thin areas. I may redo it soon and put 2 layers to cover the texture.

I would plastidip the bumpers and grills. It's cheaper and easier to do than a wrap. If you do want to wrap them then make sure the vinyl matches your paint right. What color are you wanting?
