well i should have my truck back soon, and since its gutted im thinkin bout changing the paint sooo....

Leave it black?




Or 2-tone it (black and charcoal/graphite) with a silver pinstripe to break it and maybe sum pinstriping on the tailgate?



(yes i know its a pretty bad chop, i did it in like 3 min to have sum visual...ness haha)

thanx for ur suggestions...

With the wheels you have on there they will really set off a flawless jet black paint job. However i like the graphite color. If i dont paint my truck orange it will be that graphite color. I say 2 tone it would be my idea. Because black it just so common.

i two toned mine that way (kinda) im not as thrilled as i thought id be about it, black always looks tight

you have to remember that black shows every flaw so, your body has to be super straight to be in black. i like the 2 tone idea, maybe like a metallic graphite?

i really like greyscale colors, idk why, a lot of ppl say its boring but i love it...

yea my body work is super straight (from wat im told) so im not too worried about any off that being visible, its more because of rocks and other road grime my tires throw up and stuff, i figure i could mask it for a longer time with a lighter color on bottom...

im also thinkin bout maybe just painting the whole truck a Metallic Graphite color... kinda like the color on the new f150's...

but yea thanx for the advice...

Keep it coming!

The "metallic graphite" color on the new F-150's is Dark Stone and it's badass. The two-tone design you came up with looks great. If you do it, I recommend finding a DIFFERENT want to break it up. Instead of the straight pinstriping line like everyone else, come up with something original that sets you apart. If not, yeah that looks great.

the paint scheme looks good but as already said just straight black would look GREAT with that style of wheels.
