Default Paint time HELP ME CHOOSE!!!

ok I like 2 tone trucks. mine needs repainting. my buddy paints racecars nad said he woud paint it for me if i buy the material and a case of beer.

he was over tonight and we were talking paint.

I was thinking Burnt orange and gunmetal gray. only I want the top of the cab, hood, grill not the webbing orange and the rest of the trck gun metal gray aka: garafite (sp?) gray. I woud be separating the paint wiht a thin blue pin stripe.

or supr dark red and that gray in some combo.

here is a pic of my truck. I think i'd be trading the H'2s for a set of 08 dodge rims.

feel free to photoshop away


I kind of like this truck only reverse the amount of the colors Painting my truck, with pics - Page 27 - Competition Diesel.Com - Bringing The BEST Together


just in case pix didnt work its as it sits now without lift Kyletaylor_62's 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 Club Cab - bismarck, ND

I love the combo of burnt orange and gray...Im sure it would look good with that color combo. Or the dark red and gray. There was a good lookin truck on one of the links you posted that was a profile pic. It was a reg cab dually. It looked really good. I think it was close to the dark red and gray color combo possibility.

But the orange and gray is my vote. but I think the orange would look better on the cab hood and grille than the orange would. just my .02

yeah i got one. there is no silver on it in the pics i have though. i wrecked the bed on a stump and just got it painted solid burnt orange. it was ALOT cheaper then the two tone i had.
