Question

I\'m trying to recreate the look of Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar with the new support library Toolbar.

Similar to Arnav Rao's, but with a different parent:

With this approach, the appearance of the Toolbar is entirely defined in the app styles, so you don't need to place any styling on each toolbar.
