Why not spend a few more bucks and get the top rail of the bed done in the same red that you already have. If you wanted a retro look (think 69-72) paint the body beneath the lower reveal. Then, you could use a multi-color striping tape that would be complimentary to the two colors to separate them.

Ain't nothin' wrong with the grey since it's already on the truck. Heck, I drive a God-awful yellow "thing" every day and there's a buncha people who can't see it. If you're thinkin' that the grey and red is not a good-lookin' color combo, they happen to be the school colors in my hometown of Benton, AR!
