Ok, I'm leaning towards just shaving and keeping it all black and simple, but if anybody has some pics of F150's w/ some two tones or nice looking paint schemes, PLEASE post them up!
or if anybody could do a quick photoshop w/ some thin flames (similar to what people use to break a twotone) down the side... my thought was a pearl/ghost flame look, but i've never seen that done on black, so not sure if it would really look right...
shave your tailgate handle, add a roll pan. repaint it black. just like you said, youve never seen anyone do anyting like that. there ya go, now your original. add the navigator front end, and wow your truck looks hotter than it does now
